How We Reach Our Goals
- We participate. We engage with fans through status updates, comments and tweets. We are careful not to spam our audiences and to use metrics to guide our practices.
- We use social media to create advocates for NAU by being active on the platforms we manage and creating new content to engage our audiences.
- We respond. When our audience interacts with our message or sends us messages through social media channels, we are prepared to help. We answer questions in real-time to respond to tweets and re-tweet relevant info as it comes in.
- We keep up with technology. As social networks gain momentum, we investigate the potential ROI of the channel and determine whether it is worthy of an investment of our time.
