One of the great benefits of social media for nonprofits is that your supporters can share all the great news about your cause with their own networks, helping you reach more people than ever before. But those same social tools can be used to share bad news too, and to organize against you when your supporters are upset by your actions.
During this interactive workshop, Kivi Leroux Miller of NonprofitMarketingGuide.com, will help you understand how to use social media – and how not to use it – during a crisis. We’ll explore possible crises of your own making, like Komen for the Cure’s debacle over defunding Planned Parenthood, as well as those thrust upon you, like when the founder of the Second Mile Foundation was revealed as a pedophile.
You'll leave the workshop with a game plan in place, so you are ready to respond when a crisis, no matter how big or small, hits your organization.
