Join speakers from the Florida Museum of Natural History, the Alf Museum of Paleontology, and the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections to learn how you can use social media as an effective outreach tool, both for communicating the value of your collection and for forging new collaborations. We will discuss how to frame social media engagement as storytelling, including how to think about your target audiences and narrative strategy on different platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) and how to use metrics to track success beyond numbers of likes. This webinar will also cover how to consider inclusivity and diversity in your social media strategy, and how to use backwards planning to make your social media workload manageable. <br>
