  12. Tell Me Why • Research • Strategy

  13. Research • Secondary • Two distinct motivations for volunteering • Personal • Altruistic • Long-term volunteers want more feedback • Provided framework for thinking about volunteers among our audience

  14. Research • Primary • Conducted seven interviews • Target was “long-term” volunteers • Some were leaders, others were followers • Some found by referral, others by CUVolunteer

  15. Research • Primary – Insights • Volunteering is a “personal commitment” • Motivation is internal • Diverse reasons for volunteering • Reasons for not volunteering • Not enough time • Fear of obligation

  16. Strategy • SWOT • Positioning • Unique Selling Point

  17. SWOT • Broken down by stakeholder • GroundCntrl • Illinois Public Media • The project itself

  18. GroundCntrl • Strengths • Strongest metric tracking available on the market for web-based activity organization • “Mission” completion requires tangible evidence • Users can upload content

  19. GroundCntrl • Weaknesses • Still in beta stage • Recently rebranded from “Common Deeds” • Heavily marketed to project managers as opposed to project participants

  20. GroundCntrl • Opportunities • New niche • Interest in location-based badges demonstrated by predecessors like Foursquare

  21. GroundCntrl • Threats • Success highly dependent on user buy-in and sustained interest

  22. WILL – Illinois Public Media • Strengths • Well-established in local community • History of driving audience engagement • Recognized and trusted

  23. WILL – Illinois Public Media • Weaknesses • Poor web presence • Conflicted on target audience • Poor social media focus

  24. WILL – Illinois Public Media • Opportunities • Audience uses radio as a significant source of news • Loyal audience

  25. WILL – Illinois Public Media • Threats • Political backlash if controversial subjects are brought up
