The purpose of social media is active marketing; giving social proof to the world that you are an active club to visit and join. Posts should be regular, interesting to your target market and make the club look welcoming, active, valuable and enjoyable to be a part of.
An attractive post is made to the page at least weekly for membership growth or fortnightly for membership maintenance
The VPPR (or delegate) has a schedule or planner for future posts
Photos, videos and content are collected during the meetings for sharing on socials
Sharing content that originates outside the club (from Toastmasters International, other speaking groups and/or memes) is kept to an absolute minimum
Photos are well shot and edited (e.g. cropped appropriately), never blurry or unflattering
The copy (wording) on posts is informative to an outsider, positive about the experience and always includes a call to action to contact or visit the club.
Posts are shared fortnightly into local community groups

✅ exactly when and what to post on Facebook (how often should you post? And about what?)
