Follow a social media strategy that moves audiences from awareness to reliable outreach, relationship building, and action. Implement a content hourglass system: Create one core story weekly and derive consistent messaging from it for all platforms.

Plan content in a three-week cycle: client story, donor feature, recap, and rerun/recycle content occasionally. Develop one core story weekly, repurpose it into various formats, host it on the website, and distribute it through channels to drive traffic back to the website.
