Using Social Media to connect: webinar recording and tips

 Fifty-five people logged on for the webinar on Zoom on 8 April with Louise Brogan from Social Bee NI - our biggest audience for a NICVA webinar so far.

12 things I learnt or was reminded about on the webinar - 

• Social Media rules - Show up, Share daily, use video
• Think carefully about who your audience is on each of your social media channels
• Ask questions - when you get comments you connect with more people
• Think how you can best serve your audience, it's not about you - what do they want or need
• Use good quality images - ones you take yourself are best
• Unsplash.com, Pikwizard and Pixabay have free high quality images
• Look at your Facebook insights to see who is engaging with your content and adapt accordingly
• Avoid long messages - break up your message into bite size chunks and post 
• Create Facebook groups from your Facebook page to connect with a set group of people
• When you add a image in Twitter you can tag 10 more people
• Engage with people  - reply, retweet, join conversations
• Use your video when talking to people online as it allows you to connect more
