People join social media to be able to share things with one another. With NGOs joining Facebook and Twitterto spread the word about their organization, people have the chance of doing a good deed sitting at home or even half way across the globe! How??
Well social media is all about connecting and sharing things with people of similar interests. I noticed that there was a key area that was not used to the full potential -- Using Social Media for a Social Cause! There are many organizations trying to help animals around the world. But the problem is that they only tend to gather followers from their own region. People, however are not as limited when it comes to friends and family! I have friends and family in various parts of the world. They in turn have friends from my country who I don't know.
When I share a post, and thereafter they share it too, the word spreads! But as I said in '
Tips and Tricks to Spreading the Word!', sharing everything might get annoying to your friends!
There is another quick way of spreading the word. Tag the friends who you think might be interested in the post. This works in several ways:
1. It sends them the message directly onto their wall.
2. Their friends can see it when they visit their page.
3. Some of your common friends might also glance at the post.
There are sometimes problems in doing this is. It might sometimes be difficult for you to tag too many friends, or if your friends have privacy settings that don't allow you to tag them, then you can't share it with them directly. But you can always send them a private message to spread the word!
