As you know, NARI announced a NEW! Social Media Engagement Campaign with a robust goal to increase member engagement on all NARI social media platforms by 50% and we are starting to see results! However, we still need your help so we can interact with you more on social media! Please like/follow the following pages:
NARI HQ Facebook Page
NARI HQ Twitter
NARI HQ Pinterest
NARI HQ Instagram
Weekly Tip: Stay consistent with the NARI HQ voice and tone. Is your voice more corporate, or is it a bit more casual? What you’re sharing says as much about you as it does your audience. Though it’s important that your social media engagement be as unique as your brand, it’s also important not to stray from your brand’s image. Let your corporate culture be your guide, but remember that NARI is a professional association. If you have further questions about NARI’s voice, please e-mail marketing@nari.org.
