Trust Me On This

Forget everything you know about marketing, design, and sales. Non-profit or for-profit. At their core, these things are really about people, and would benefit from a more human focus. To simplify our social media conversations, speaker Stephen P. Anderson will drop the jargon to discuss two fundamental concepts: Experiences and Trust.

Saving the World with Social Media

Social Media is a venue for disruption, collaboration, creation and videos of high school girls beating each other up with still much unrealized potential. Tomorrow’s social web will broaden the field of social innovators in non-profit fields well beyond what today’s web 2.0 visionaries can imagine.

The human race is confronted with a bewildering convergence of world-wide challenges ranging from war to poverty to an overpopulation of LOL cats like we’ve never experienced. In this presentation, Social media evangelist Giovanni Gallucci will show you in a frank and eye-opening way, how to use your twitter, MySpace and facebook friends to rally to your cause and others with the full creative and cognitive power our limited attention spans can bring to bear.

Waiting for the World to Change? Engaging Your Supporters With Social Media

Are you waiting for the world to change? Learn how to change it. A grassroots movement is one that is driven by the constituents of a community or organization.

What makes grassroots movements special is that the creation of the movement and the group supporting it occur from natural and spontaneous human interaction. Social Media offers non-profits an unprecedented opportunity to engage people and communities in a meaningful and lasting way simply by understanding some basics and human behavior and communication. This presentation will teach you how to overcome the obstacles to good communication, how social media can help overcome the limitations of traditional power structures and how to use your organizational stories to move people to action.

Social Media is the Future (for Non-Profits)

It’s predicted that by 2012 Social Media/Community Marketing Budgets will outweigh Traditional Marketing Budgets in both the for-profit and non-profit sectors - and I’m not the least bit surprised. Professionals in Marketing, PR, Advertising, and Journalism are incorporating Social Media strategies into their messaging. The savvy nonprofit can do the same! People increasingly reject the pushed message marketing of the past several decades. Today your nonprofit community - donors, volunteers, and clients - want to feel heard, to feel like they are a real part of the mission based community. They expect and crave dialogue - they want nonprofits to engage with them. The Got Social Media™ Conference will teach you how to use Social Media and Community Based Marketing to reach and build your community in new and sustainable ways.
