Episode 50: Social Media Marketing for Nonprofits

Tips and advice for nonprofits looking to harness the power of social media.

Danny Rosin's love affair with nonprofits and service began at an early age.

"I got into a lot of trouble as a kid," says Rosin with a mischievous grin. "I was punished with community service and fell in love with the service part."

Whether he was providing gifts for less fortunate kids during the holidays or helping children with cleft palates through Operation Smile, Danny who is the co-founder of Brand Fuel was hooked on doing good for others. And that newfound love of giving and fundraising carried into his professional career.

"Even at 16 I realized I could positively impact the lives of others (through charitable efforts)" – Danny Rosin

With over 25 years' experience in philanthropy and marketing, Rosin a board member at A Place at The Table, and active co-founder of Band Together certainly knows a thing or two about the nonprofits market. In this Social Angle podcast, Vinnie Driscoll and Melissa Newman talk to Rosin about his use of social media, the ingredients of a great promotional campaign for a nonprofit, what inspires him and much more. Rosin, who's also a huge music fan, drops a dime on who he considers his all-time favorite band.
