Examples Of Content
Great content to boost includes:
• Any events you are organising
• Offers you have for RYA members or anyone wanting to become aRYA member
If you boost any events you have coming up, you will help raiseawareness and potentially get more people buying tickets to attend it.
If you have offers on, you could increase the revenue and salesgenerated by boosting a post about the current offer.

Making It Work Within A Club
Team Work
Delegate responsibility evenly, don’t puteverything on one person to do. Why?
Social media is one of the more time-consuming elements of DigitalMarketing because it takes time to plan,budget, set goals to achieve and moreto create one advert.
Budget
• Ensure a set budget is decided for thecampaign
• We recommend setting a total budget tobegin with and divide it with the number ofdays you are running it so you don’texhaust the budget immediately
• This will help ensure you aren’t spendingtoo much money and the money spent isgoing towards an objective set by the team
Claiming Back Expenses
• Look into Facebook Business Manager and find the option “Billing & payment Methods”
• In your list of transactions, click the date dropdown menu (located above your transactions)and choose the date range you want for your receipt
• Find the transaction you want a receipt for, hover over the Transaction ID link and thenclick the download icon
• These can then be provided to the relevant department to claim back your expenses
Reporting
• Look back at what you have planned and theobjectives that were set
• Have you reached them?
• If you haven’t, you need to look back and find out thereason why
• Look at what performed the best and the reason why.
• Always be transparent!
• Include information they would be interested in.
