Social media project - LGL Recommendations and Next Steps May 2013
#1 What is the value of communication to your agency? • Social media represents a valuable opportunity • View it along with other comms tools • How to measure? How to define success?
#2 Sharing resources & identifying priorities • Wellman & Wilson – full day workshop • Each planning table to identify priorities • $1200/day /25 + 25 = 50 agencies @ $24 each • 2 staff from each agency – mngmt and f-line @ $12 each • Conference call coaching - $600/mth – unlimited # on call – 3 mths minimum
#3 Revisit SM survey (Dec 2012) • Consider it as baseline • Enhancement potential for ALL communications tools
#4 Seek out local expertise • Consider a panel discussion (or two) at upcoming Planning Council mtg • A new slant on panels • Worthwhile regardless of sector
#5 and #6 and #7 • Access free resources wherever possible • Share via live links – ensure on both Planning Council sites • Seek cost-effective methods of training – webinars, sharing between agencies, common place for resources
#8 Jump in! • Consider it homework to add to Planning Council knowledge capacity • Find blogs of interest to follow • Set up Twitter acct and follow someone or some agency of interest • Engage somehow to understand interactive capacity • Back for 15 minutes scheduled discussion – what was new to you/valuable/relevant?
#9 Ask, ask, ask again • Squeaky wheel potential • Rationale as to how it will add to service delivery • MCYS? • Community Foundations? • Pooling resources? Neighbouring communities?
#10 Where to next? • Planning Council annual prioritizing? Strength in numbers • Pie chart on pp 15-16 • Strategy development/comms planning – facilitator that could work with large group and sub-groups? • Or at least tools to start discussion
