Best Practices

• Don’t always send the same message via Facebook, Twitter, App Push, Instant Connect,
and News

• If Facebooks, Twitter, or Instagram are connected to your app, they will populate to
your app’s news feed, along with other news posts from your website or eSVShare.
• Instead, designate roles for each of these platforms.

Facebook (or Instagram): quality photos or videos captured of events happening on campus; sneak peak into your school’s environment, faculty or overall brand of the school.

Twitter: updates on sporting events, competitions, things happening now or retweeting events, schools, news stories that could have to do with your school or education.

App Push Notification: Reminders of something happening that day OR pointing to an earlier post to re-generate buzz around it.

** Can also be paired with School News Posts: it will populate in the app newsfeed or CMS as well as send a notification to those whom have the app.

Instant Connect: Email, Text, Phone Calls should be reserved for…

News Posts: these generate in your eSVShare app platform and push to the website and/or school’s app.

Use for any posts that normally go in your school news: new weekly calendar, introducing a new staff member, advertising something about to happen or did happen etc.

Examples:

Best Practices

• When should you post?

• Don’t post late at night: the feed is posting within 10-30 minutes of creation.

• Therefore, if you are posting on social media or anywhere from the eSVShare app platform, your
users may be getting push notifications and social media alerts late at night.
• Luckily, eSVShare allows you to schedule posts. Use this feature as a way to ensure you aren’t
disrupting users late at night.
