This project focuses on identifying key influencers in the TechSoup community and enhancing relationships through targeted social media engagement. We aim to prioritize relevant content sharing and requests for mentions, rather than just creating a network map. Our efforts also include expanding our outreach to corporations and foundations while aligning on key interests such as philanthropy, open data, and community-building. Recent insights reveal trending hashtags and notable influencers to connect with, optimizing our strategy for impactful community involvement.

Re-Focus • This project is not about creating the map • Discover who is influential and what they are talking about • Their current connection to TechSoup is less important...once TechSoup follows them, tweets relevant content, and prioritizes @mentions to them the relationships will build • Community Team can encourage more participation on Facebook and LinkedIn, but mapping the individuals is lower priority • Make it ACTIONABLE • Target expansion of network through new org types • Corporations • Foundations • Align on key interests • Philanthropy and CSR • Open Data / Big Data • Community-building
