Who are you trying to reach and what are you trying to get them to do?
1. Start with your goals
Achievable goals
o Build your brand o Increase awareness o Inform, educate, inspire o Attract attention o Amplify messages o Stimulate actions
2. Find your tribe
The right people
o People you know o People they know o Interested in the issues o The right age o The right place o The right time
3. Map out your process
Things to consider
o Who is responsible? o What tools should you use? o How often can you engage? o What should you automate? o What will you say /show? o How will you measure?
How will you measure and determine success?
Your Social Media Toolkit
o Position = Messaging Map o Plan = Social Media Calendar o Listen = Monitoring o Engage = Social Networks o Assess = Measurement
Pick the tools that work well for you and that get you closer to the people you want to reach and serve.�-- @alizasherman
