Social technologies have [and will continue to] change the way we consume information, do business, and live our lives. Engaging in a ‘social mindset’ is really important, because social media is not going away. For some schools it has already excited and connected them. For other schools it feels like a spot on the horizon, far from today’s reality. Either way, schools need to be able to navigate their way successfully through the web of social platforms, channels and technologies – so that both marketing and communications are effective and worthwhile. Too many organisations ‘jump onto the bandwagon’ of new trends without fully understanding how best to leverage their power and usefulness.
Integrating with Social Platforms requires a clearly thought out Social Communications Strategy that ties together all the online [and offline] channels – with the School’s underlying vision and plans. This should include:
- a co-ordinated brand image to ensure the quality and consistency of your school offering
- a robust and scalable website platform as the foundation to ‘connect’ and integrate to all other channels.
- developing multi-channel, multi-platform, integrated communications. Website, Social Media, Apps (iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry, Android), Email and Print
- activating [and maintaining] Social Media channels (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr and LinkedIn) – and getting all your communities collaborating and sharing

Facebook apps are becoming hugely valuable for any marketing strategy and schools are no different. In fact, we believe schools can get more out a Facebook app than most businesses but are unfortunately not as quick to adopt. Why is an app so important? Because Facebook is a platform that your audience is comfortable and familiar with.
