A great day and a great event yesterday at the Northwest Development Officers Association winter conference where I spoke on Funding Your Way to Success Through Social Media. I offered the practical ways to use social media to build awareness and raise money. Nothing replaces face to face, but when you can have your evangelists helping you raise money, you've augmented your fund development staff.
Case in point: Get 200 people to each go on Facebook, list your cause, and raise $1,000. That's $200,000. That's a lot of money that YOU don't have to raise.
