SignVine is crowdfunding for the Sign Industry. We’re in
existence to help deserving nonprofits purchase message signs utilizing an
online donation campaign the world calls “crowdfunding”.
These online campaigns generally do not tap into a secret “Golden
Thread” linked to some mythical vast fortune of the Mayans. They still required
a grassroots effort on the part of the nonprofit to entice donors to visit
their SignVine campaign and make a donation. Potential donors visit the webpage, review the pros and cons of the nonprofit's storyline and make a donation.
Social media should be a powerful tool utilized by those
nonprofits determined to succeed- Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Linkedin. Yes,
the professional networking site-
Linkedin.
Founded in 2002, Linkedin has already changed how executive
hiring functions in the American workplace and while not as glitzy and trendy
as Facebook, it’s where the money is.
Many of you are reading this post on Linkedin.
Is your organization on Linkedin? It should be, because your
donors are on Linkedin and they probably looking to check out your organization
there as well. No Linkedin presence may mean no donor interest.
Here's who is using Linkedin:
- Employers (looking to hire)
- Staff (seeking a new career opportunity)
- Students (post graduate opportunities)
- Facebook refugees escaping the omnipresent dancing dogs of Facebook!
Give Linkedin a shot and create meaningful and appropriate
posts to discuss your online Crowdfunding campaign! Check me out- I'm there too- www.linkedin.com/in/mprongue/
