[ How We Use Them Differently ]
Where our constituents are
For customer service and relationship building but is
also our action oriented community
#SMWES // @cariegrls
People talk about us here
A customer service and relationship building tool
[ How We Operate in Social Media ]
#SMWES // @cariegrls
• Answer everyone who comes to us with a legitimate question or concern• Do not use tools to schedule or post •Monitor every public mention of HSUS• Facebook response time = under 2 hours, Twitter = 30 minutes.• Don’t delete comments unless they violate our commenting policy• Very selective about what we post • Every post must provide fans some kind of value or benefit. • Never post more than once a day unless there is breaking news.• Social media is no longer an
afterthought
[ We are not afraid to fail or screw up! ]
#SMWES // @cariegrls
We have, plenty of times.Learn from your mistakes!
We have a crisis plan whichincludes our guidelines ondeleting comments, responding to angry fans, etc – but to boil it down:
In a crisis we:acknowledge, rectify, and move on.
[ Our Social Media “Philosophy” ]
By providing our fans what they want like:
• fun contests• polls asking for their opinion• listening to feedback on posts• answering every question• Show ways to make a difference• other engagement opportunities
We believe they will feel enough of aconnection with the brand to do what we ask such as:
• donating• taking action• filling out a form• Answering a question• RSVPing to an event #SMWES // @cariegrls
[ Integration Will Help People Find You ]
• Social media works in conjunction with all of our online channels: email, website, online advertising, and mobile.
• Every piece of content we put out is shareable on Facebook, Twitter, and via email.
• Our homepage has a live feed of Facebook and Twitter
#SMWES // @cariegrls
• Every page on our website has a link to our social media presences
• We have a daily 9 minute Communications meeting about what each channel is putting out that day.
• We maintain an editorial calendar for social media• Website content links to related Facebook pages,
events, etc.
[ But Perhaps Most Importantly…]
We don’t measure success by # of fans or followers.
“…that’s so myspace.” –C. Lewis
#SMWES // @cariegrls
[ What Matters? ]
The Like or Follow is the beginning of the relationship between you and a fan,
not the end.
#SMWES // @cariegrls
Ask yourself:• Do those people do what you want them to do? (tie to goals)• How can you get them to do it? (think like a user)• How are you making it a valuable community for both you and
your fans and get them to come back? (engage)
You must be relevant, interesting, concise, responsive, and provide value to your fans.
[ Goals ]
Our goals in using social media are: advocacy, fundraising, providing customer service, and increasing brand sentiment online by
promoting the good work of the organization.
Customer service & engagement Interest & trust
Positive connectionto the brand
Better chance of becoming a member
More likely to share our content
Everything we do online is tied to advocacy and fundraising – social media is no exception.

[ What We Measure ]
*both from Facebook Causes and sourced from our website
#SMWES // @cariegrls
[ Measuring and Showcasing the Intangibles ]
#SMWES // @cariegrls

Includes mentions from: • Supporters/members/fans• Other organizations• Companies• Celebrities
Sent to executives to showcase intangible benefits from social mediaas well as give them an insight of what’s buzzing online that week related to our brand.
[ Convert Them to Constituents! ]
#SMWES // @cariegrls
- Bring all your asks inside Facebook- Give them options.- Use explicit call to actions.- Answer and thank everyone.- Allow comments but have a policy
and monitor your page.- Ask people to share immediately after they take action or donate.- Don’t dismiss custom tabs yet.- Use Promoted Posts to your fans.- Close the loop on previous posts.- Make it personal – tie it to them.
[ What’s Next? ]
We want to become a data driven organization.Data is one of our biggest weaknesses!
• We want to use data to make decisions on how to work smarter.
• We do a great job of providing individual customer service, but how can we use data to take that a step further?
• We want to better use Facebook data to give us better insight on what our fans want (LIKE.)
• We want to use data to give our fans a better experience with our brand so that we can convert even more of them to constituents.
