On 13th of September we had a wonderful workshop with some really wonderful talks and brainstorming sessions. The pictures below show how gripping our speakers were.
Our first speaker was Richard and below are embedded his slides. We try to summarize the highlights below but feel free to download the slides and develop the ideas further.
Our second speaker was Linda. Below are her slides from the workshop.
Our third speaker was Sachin from Aalto Social Impact summarizing the lessons learned from Aalto Social Impact journey using different tools. Below are the embedded slides.
Some of the suggestions/highlights from the workshop are mentioned below. Although there were many good points but to keep the blogpost smaller just mentioning some of them.
- Having a hacker mindset, with the free tools available we might not be able to satisfy all our needs but with a little but of hacker mindset we can come up with heuristics to meet them. For example: In ASI while creating the events we could not invite all our fans from Facebook page. We recently created an ASI user and asked community to add the ASI user as a friend. Hopefully, in future we will be able to invite the whole community with the growing friends of the ASI user.
- Being Naive and Openly thanking people: If you as an organization want to succeed with the new tools. Your organization need to have people who are native in these mediums and thanking people/community will be able to get you support of community. One of our speaker said that to have a friend in the virtual world we need to do the same stuff as we do with our friends in real world.
- Conversation Marketing and Other tools: Using Google alerts to keep track of who is talking about you is an effective way to track conversations, and following them further up will be a cheap and effective way for marketing for organizations with low budget.
