Slow Down
And 2 other suggestions before you post on social media, post an article or blog post, or send an email.
At Altrui we focus on working with clients in growing their relationships with donors and increasing their fundraising.
We publish weekly blog posts, titled Dan’s Tips, and are present on Twitter (@fundraiserdan) and LinkedIn .
We also have been doing some recruiting for clients who are adding to their fundraising teams. It’s been a lot of fun, and has offered many opportunities for growth.
There is a difference when posting on social media for a client. The post has to come across even more professional, of course.
Imagine the horror on my face when responding to a colleaugue who had asked about a position we are recruiting for, when I saw the original post with a typo! I actually spelled the word “client” incorrectly!
Words immediately came out of my mouth.
Fortunately I could quickly edit the post, but after 200+ impressions.
Another reminder to slow down.
To self edit anything I am about to post.
