Non-Profit Social Media Strategy for Tucson Coalition to End Homelessness Annual Conference
Presentation to Tucson Pima Coalition to End Homelessness (TPCH) Conference
TPCH is dedicated to providing information on ending homelessness and helping individuals and families at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
Do Non-Profit’s Have an Unfair Advantage with Social Media?
Non-profit organizations have an advantage over other businesses regarding social media marketing because of their altruistic mission that translates into local or national interests to the social media community. Learn how to capture this through online marketing and social media.
Non-profits like TPCH have common, self-less goals for helping our community:
- to be advocates to prevent and end issues like homelessness
- to increase community awareness and support for individuals and families in need
- to increase community ownership of the needs in our community
These goals are really for the good of our community and the people in it. This is where the non-profit advantage comes to life. There is not as much of a need to rework the messaging and content strategy with marketing a non-profit to capture all the great things being done daily and share this with your online community. A charity should consider abandoning the conservative messaging approach it may have followed since it started and get into a mode of storytelling and sharing through photos, videos, and writing to capture the social good done every day.
