🙌 Tips to engage communities and citizens on social media

You can take advantage of social media sites to connect directly with audiences. Some tips to try include:

  • Follow → Follow local actor’s accounts. Scan through some of their posts to see how they use social media and what they tend to focus on.

  • Comment → Begin an online dialogue with key players by responding to a comment or post they made or just introducing yourself and what you might have in common.

  • Respond → Follow up on mentions. Though gratitude about re-posting is nice.

  • Join → Show interest in joining Facebook or LinkedIn groups or set up your own Facebook group. Look for local events or groups of interest on Meet Up or Eventbrite.
