If you are a member of The Communications Network, there is a free webinar coming up that you might want to check out. Comnet is teaming up with the Nonprofit Communications Network to present “How to Use Social Media to Build Buzz” Wednesday, Feb. 10, from 2-3 pm ET/11 am-Noon PT.
Here is what they have to say about the webinar:
Has this happened to your organization: after experimenting with social media you found that nothing happened at all?
If so, you’re not alone. One of the most frequent complaints from organizations grappling with social media tools is that after taking the plunge — whether Tweeting, blogging, or starting new Facebook pages — nothing happens.
In this special webinar, being produced for the Communications Network by the Nonprofit Technology Network (NTEN), you’ll learn how to create networks that work. The webinar will be held Wednesday, Feb. 10, from 2-3 pm ET/11 am-Noon PT.
Session leaders are Holly Ross, Executive Director of NTEN, and Nancy Schwartz, NTEN board member and blogger (www.gettingattention.org), and Communications Network member. Over the course of the webinar, the two will share examples of how other organizations are successfully harnessing the power of social media to build buzz that contributes to their foundations’ reach and impact.
You’ll leave with a strong understanding of the nuts and bolts of social media success and the readiness to put them to work for your foundation.
To sign up for this webinar, being offered free-of-charge to all Communications Network members, please email info@comnetwork.org. Please put “Building Buzz Webinar” in the subject line.
