Would you like to grow your FRC's social media presence? 77% of Americans now have a social media account, and increasing your social media presence can be an effective way for your FRC to communicate its impact to hundreds or thousands of people instantly.
CFRA is designing a social media toolkit for FRCs that offers strategies on connecting with your FRC's target audiences, creating engaging content, developing a social media strategy, and more. We would like to hear from YOU about what toolkit information will best support your FRC in its social media efforts.
If you’d like to know more about social media and how it can help your FRC, please help us by taking this
survey
. It will take no more than 5 minutes to complete!
Thank you in advance for your participation. For any questions, please contact
