Social Marketing Report January 2017



Social Marketing Report January 2017


Our blog sarasotasistercities.com is our online newsletter. We keep a calendar pf events at the top and amplify the information with photos on older posts. All of our events for the past five years are on the blog.

We will be glad to publish information about Sarasota Sister events.  Email it to me at sarasotasistercities@gmail.com, preferably with graphics, and I will post it on the blog. You can also post information directly yourself on our Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest pages.

If you see a mistake on our systems please let me know and I will correct it.

We email our members several times each month with notices of events. We use two email addresses - sarasotasistercities@gmail.com and craighullinger@sarasotasistercities.com

You can post information and photos and interact with others on our social media addresses. All of our members and friends are encouraged to join us. These systems work best if we have a number of our members posting.

We continue our efforts with our Facebook page. If you use Facebook please check out our page, and contribute thoughts, ideas, and 
events  
facebook.com/SarasotaSisterCities

If you use Twitter please join us. It is easy to create an account and post directly yourself. And prove to everyone that you are up to date. 
twitter.com/SarasotaSisterC


We also continue our efforts on LinkedIn and Pinterest.

Pinterest 
pinterest.com/sarasotasister


And of course our Web Site. We use a consultant to update the site and we change it infrequently. It does pick up info from the blog automatically and has links to our social media. 
sarasotasistercities.org


We maintain our membership records on 
www.imembersdb.com

From this site you can update your own records and membership records.  You should be able to log in initially using your email address and your zip coe. Membership VP Dave Harralson maintains this site and can help you get access membership@sarasotasistercities.com


I maintain a blog that has spreadsheets showing Board contact info and Members Contacts.  boardssc.blogspot.com 
The Board is open - you have to ask me for access to obtain access to all our membership. 

We have many photos on line. You can see them on our Pinterest page or see them from the left column of the blog. Or Click Here.


Google has provided us a domain email for free, since we are a non profit.  We will create an email address as Board Members request.  The address will be your title or name, followed by @sarasotasistercities.com

The system is similar to gmail. It also provides a way to share documents and photographs.  A little confusing but you can figure it out.

Using the domain email is of course voluntary.  If you do use the email it might make it simpler to use it with a separate web browser - perhaps use the Microsoft browser for your regular email and use Chrome or Firefox for you Sister City email.  That way you won't have to log in and out of the two email systems. Or you can choose to forward the Sister City email to your regular account.

If any of you would like to help improve our social marketing systems give me a call or send me an email or just jump in and start posting to our Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or Twitter addresses. And if you know anyone who can help with this effort please put me in contact with me. I am likely beyond help but would appreciate it nevertheless.

If you have articles or photos to share, please send them to us and we will post them to the blog and social media.
