We are looking for someone to build us a Social Media strategy to build our online presence! We are committed to building a robust online presence for the Canterbury Somali community and are seeking assistance to develop a coordinated social media strategy and management plan. Our goal is to unify and enhance our social media platforms to create a significant, positive impact within the wider New Zealand community and achieve our goal of a significant online presence for the Canterbury Somali community!
The strategy should focus on creating a public-facing, cohesive narrative that highlights the cultural richness and contributions of the Otautahi/Somali community. By effectively sharing their stories, traditions, and achievements, we aim to:
Foster a sense of pride and unity within the local Somali community.
Promote the diverse cultural heritage of the community to a broader audience.
Enhance the community's visibility and positive image, particularly within the context of New Zealand society.
Build stronger relationships with key stakeholders, including government bodies and other community organizations.
We are looking for an experienced social media strategist who can help us:
Develop a tailored, multi-platform strategy that integrates the diverse channels we currently use (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) into a cohesive and engaging narrative.
Design a brand identity that reflects the values and aspirations of the Canterbury Somali community while appealing to a wide New Zealand audience.
Provide recommendations for engaging with our audience and growing our online presence, while fostering a positive and respectful dialogue with both the Somali community and the wider public.
This project is pivotal in empowering the Canterbury Somali community to share their cultural heritage and achievements, and we believe that a well-executed social media strategy will be instrumental in shaping a positive and inclusive public image.
We look forward to collaborating with a partner who shares our vision and can help us create an impactful and lasting online presence.
What we currently have in place: We have a website and instagram with archive material including podcast material from Plains FM. We also have a private facebook site. We would like to preserve some privacy while having an public facing page.
