Social Media Audit

Social media is becoming more and more prevalent, and it's use within the nonprofit sector is widespread. In fact, recent studies have indicated that top nonprofit organizations currently outpace the top for-profit businesses in the use of social media. It is natural, then, that emphasis is increasingly placed on ensuring social media efforts are strategic, deliberate, and that they fit within the structure of a comprehensive communications plan. But because these technologies are relatively new, the benchmarks for success are not as obvious as with many other tried and true forms of communication. It can often be difficult to tell if your organization is on the right track.

If you’re looking for ways to be more strategic in your social media efforts then you have come to the right place. Thanks to funding from Microsoft to develop this valuable tool, NPower is able to provide our Social Media Audit free of charge to any nonprofit organization that is looking to improve their online communication strategy and use of social media tools.
