Virtual Workshop
Social Media for Advocacy
October 30, 2024
1:30 p.m.−3:45 p.m. ET
Whether you’re using Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram or another platform, social media is one of your most powerful advocacy tools at your disposal. When leveraged successfully, it can create opportunities to find, reach and engage advocates, recruit supporters and connect with policymakers.
1:30 p.m.
The Changing Social Media Landscape
New challenges are constantly arising in social media: Changing algorithms have made organic reach next to impossible on many social channels; platforms have put restrictions on political content surrounding the November election; and of course, TikTok faces a looming national ban – unless the company is either sold or succeeds in a court challenge. Our digital experts will help you navigate these challenges and determine the best strategy for your organization.
In this session, we will cover:
- The latest legal and regulatory developments impacting your digital strategy
- How to run a cost/benefit analysis of your social platforms that includes reputational risks
- Using audience analysis to guide your paid advertising strategy
