Getting high bids for
your
online auction
can be a real challenge if you have a limited audience. Fortunately,
there are ways to spread the word on your upcoming event without
having to spend a single cent. How do you do this? Through social
networks. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when using social
media:
Get creative with your
posts.
Some individuals may be
all set to support your cause, but they don’t need to be told
status update after status update about what you stand for. Instead,
put your creative chops to good use and post something to make your
fans or followers constantly check your page, like witty observations
on relatable, everyday situations.
Encourage interaction.
You may find this a
daunting task initially, but you’ll be amazed how your social
networking sites can promote interaction if you make the right move.
Establish a theme, and encourage them to post pics according to that.
For instance, if your organization is devoted to helping animal
shelters, ask people to post “before and after” pictures of their
rescued pets.
Give people a glimpse
of the work you do.
Have a staff member film
an entire day at your headquarters and post the edited video on your
social networking accounts. This way, you give people an idea of the
work you’re doing. Once they see you are hard at work, they will be
prompted to help out.
