Don’t Shout At People
Instead… You Need to Provide VALUE at Every Stage
What Does It Mean to Provide Value?
What can you provide for people online that they will care about?
• What services can you offer?• Can they volunteer online?• Can this be a portal to
involvement- events, community building, etc.?
• What info can you share?
Before each post, ask yourself: is this providing value?
Make Sure to Balance Value
It Is Not Just What You Do, But How You Do It
Don’t use social media just because you think you should…
…people will know when you are faking it!
