Showcasing your mission in action is powerful through social media. Not only are you able to reach masses amounts of potential donors, you can engage them without having to spend much time individually garnering support. Photos, stories and success stories are easy shares. If people feel connected to your mission, they’ll likely donate, volunteer and tell others too. Social media is a good way to document and bring your impact to the public. It’s generally free to access too. Highly recommend assigning the task to a team member who ‘gets it’. Bad social media can make your organization look, well, bad. So do it well and be prepared to engage with the public.

3 How to choose the right social media management tool for your nonprofit?

When it comes to selecting the right social media management tool for your nonprofit, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Consider your budget, needs, and preferences before making a decision. Cost is an important factor to consider, as some tools offer free or discounted plans for nonprofits, while others charge a monthly or annual fee based on the number of users, accounts, or features. Additionally, look for tools that offer the features you need and want, such as content creation, scheduling, analytics, engagement, and integration. It's also important to make sure the tool is user-friendly and intuitive with reliable support. Lastly, check the compatibility of different tools with the social media networks that you want to reach.

Once you have chosen the right tool for your nonprofit, you can use it to create and execute a social media strategy that engages donors and supporters. To achieve this goal, set clear and realistic objectives with the SMART framework, understand who your donors and supporters are, create and share valuable content that aligns with your brand and objectives, engage and interact with your audience, and evaluate and optimize your results. Use the analytics and insights features of your tool to segment and profile your audience, the content creation and scheduling features to produce and distribute high-quality content, the engagement and monitoring features to track and manage conversations, and the reporting and analytics features to generate and interpret data.

Social media tools help you monitor trends on what engages audiences most. This helps you to create content that most resonates with your audience. Your strategy should incorporate the right culture for each of your accounts as well as include interaction with others. Content that features others, and not only about you/your organization, can engage others in being ambassadors for you and social media platforms are a great place to have others messaging about you. Being attentive to others’ content is an important element of your strategy.

Consider the skillets you need on your team to help you create an impactful strategy. Courses in ejournalism and digital marketing are available as certifications and degrees. Having someone attentive to this role who can engage and interact virtually is as important as those who interact with your constituents in person. There are some constituents who may only engage with you virtually. These can be meaningful engagements with the right skillsets.
