Beth Kanter's insight:
In the era of social media, we have forgotten about the importance of building face-to-face relationships and strengthening the human communication process. The importance of social media is indisputable and it has changed the way we communicate with others in our personal and profession lives. Can you imagine a world without Facebook, Twitter or YouTube? Not at all, social media is part of us! In the world of nonprofits, social media allows greater opportunities to engage donors, be in touch with the community and show the organization’s work and results. This said, what happens when all our efforts focus on web and social media campaigns? Well, we have to take a step back and bring humanity to the online world.

Goed en overzichtelijk stappenplan om naar de social media marketing te kijken. Met de waardevolle toevoeging (die nogal eens wordt vergeten door bedrijven) dat het bij alle automatisering wel om mensen gaat en niet om logo's.
