New media has given every one of your stakeholders the means to communicate in much the same ways as you do, whether it’s news, information, action alerts, fundraising appeals, organizing, recruitment, teaching, or community building. Organizations are all looking at so-called “user-generated content” programs, but most of our actual efforts are banal failures. In this ninety minute workshop, we’ll teach you how to:
- scale your community efforts to your resources and get the best ROI
- motivate your stakeholders to contribute productively
- apply Fair Use principles to the content developed
- find exactly the right strategic positioning for your organization
- apply the single most powerful, and least obvious, strategy for building your online capacity
You probably have a sense that stakeholder-generated content may be a boon to your cause and your strategies, but do you know what to do with it? If you’re looking for guidance on how to choose the right approaches for your organization, your cause, and your resources, then this workshop is right for you.
