Here are the resources included in the “Master Class: 6 steps to create a powerhouse social strategy for your nonprofit,” the webinar given by JD Lasica on CharityHowTo on June 23, 2011.
Contact us for information about holding a Social Media Strategy bootcamp for your organization.
We can’t cover all facets of using social media strategically in a 90-minute webinar, so here are resources to help you drill down in specific subject areas. Also, feel free to follow up with us if you have any questions!
