Dear Friends,
As many of you know, social networking has been the “buzz” for 2009. Just this year, I’ve reconnected with friends on Facebook and started following many news makers on Twitter. And, I’m not alone. Facebook estimates that it has more than 200 million active users-a number that continues to grow.
Given the exponential growth of social networking, ServiceU has added social networking features to our products to help you share your organization’s activities and involvements across these social media websites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and others. We want to give you the ability to quickly and easily share the events and causes that you care about with your social networking friends and followers. Read our step-by-step instructions on how administrative users can add these features to event listings, donations pages or ticketing pages.
In addition, you can now keep up with the latest ServiceU news, updates and more by connecting with us on Facebook or following us on Twitter. We’re really excited about joining social media and getting to know you even better through these conversations. We also hope that you will connect with other churches, schools and nonprofits so that we can share ideas, best practices and ways to simplify our service to others.
Is your organization participating in social media or utilizing online tools? One common misconception among churches, schools and other nonprofits is that “new media” and online tools are only for the young. In this article, we help you understand the demographics of who is on the internet and offer you a few tips on how to get started.
Finally, with Thanksgiving upon us, I would like to take a moment to thank all of our clients for your continued patronage. I am truly grateful for your continued business and friendship. I hope you and your families have a blessed Thanksgiving season.
Sincerely,
Tim
