Wednesday night was 501 Tech NYC’s August meetup, so Farra and I headed off to Witness (this month’s kind hosts) to hear Deanna Zandt share her thoughts on social media, organizing and nonprofits from her new book, Share this! Social media organizing for nonprofits.
Rather than get tangled up in nitty-gritty tactics, the discussion stayed on big-picture themes for successful social media organizing – important stuff that’s easy to forget in the day-to-day reality of managing your social media presence.
Highlights included learning what Kermit the Frog can teach us about social media (answer: a lot) from Deanna’s Ignite presentation on the subject. Watch the video here, or take a look at my other key takeaways below.
