In January, AFP Calgary and Area chapter hosted a thought-provoking panel discussion on how the Internet is creating change in the non-profit sector. The topic attracted a large attendance which speaks volume of the sector's interest in this topic. Many members have been asking for more information on social media so AFP Calgary and Area chapter is pleased to present Social Media V2: How To Build Lasting Relationships ... One Tweet at a Time.
It seems like most organizations are jumping on the social media bandwagon. Why not? Social media is a powerful tool that enables charities to engage with a large number of constituents, provide greater opportunities to share information and seek and receive feedback. It's a tool that is constantly evolving, which leaves many wondering where to begin, what to do, and how to stay up-to-date. Most importantly, is this the right tool for your organization?
Discover how your organization can utilize social media to expand your reach, promote your cause and raise more money as Calgary-based on-line strategist Barb Noad shares her expertise and experiences in developing social media strategies for local charitable organizations.
Abpout The Presenters
Scott Stratten, President, UnMarketing
Over 60,000 people follow his daily tweets on Twitter and he was voted one of the top influencers on the site with over 90 million users. His recent Tweet-a-thons include raising $25,000 in 30 hours for Tanner, a young boy with a terminal illness and $16,000 for child hunger, in less than 12 hours.
He recently appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Mashable.com, USA Today, CNN.com and Fast Company.
Scott is currently on a whirlwind book tour across North America promoting his new book "UnMarketing: Stop Marketing. Start Engaging". Scott's book which was released this month is #1 on Amazon's Best Sellers list in the marketing category and on the top ten list of the National Post Business Best Sellers list.
Lucky for us, he is making a pit stop to Calgary to talk about social media success for non-profits and why he changed his coffee religion. (You'll have to be a follower to understand that later part!)
