HOW TO MAKE A PITCH – Pitching you MVP

Learning Objectives
The main purpose of today’s session is:
Give you the opportunity to present your own, personal, individual approach including social business canvas and receive formative feedback
Recall: MVP Seminar Activity from week 20
MVP: Minimum Viable Product or Service:
The materialisation of an idea that is still far from perfect but good enough (sufficient features) to introduce to public. Under a MVP rationale, you avoid “the temptation to overbuild and overpromise” (Ibid, p. 97).
Recall: You were to think about a version of your idea that requires only a fraction of such resources – something that you can quickly introduce to public so that you can start learning from the corresponding interaction (in order to find out in a timely manner whether you have a good or a bad idea at hand) and feedback.

What’s your Strength and Weakness points?
Who’s your targeted customers?
Who’s your customers?
What resources do you have ?
Who’s your competitors and what’s their situations
2. Objective
Where you want to go on the long and short term plus expected objective
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Realistic
Timely

4. Tactics
The chosen transportation (E.g., if you chose road then you have options of bus, train, taxi etc.)
Tactics are the details of the strategy, what you will do within the strategy you planned.
Chosen platforms and tools that allows you to achieve your strategy objective perfectly
Example – Email Marketing: Send out email newsletter
LinkedIn InMail: Send out 15 InMail's monthly to targeted prospects
5. Actions
How you will pay the fees, will you seat in the front of the bus or you will take the last train for the day?
Actions is about making your tactics happen, it`s the process where you manage your social media platform, and implementation of the tools and the content planned in the tactics step.
6. Control
Monitoring whether your objectives are being achieved or not (KPIs) and who does what on every step of the plan.
KPI’s, are your key performance indicators, the metrics you use to check if you are achieving your goals successfully or not
7. Hashtags
Do some research and have a mix of key hashtags

Using Social Media for Social Entrepreneurship
1. Quotes: Humorous, inspiring or motivational quotes always perform [but be appropriate]
2. Behind-the-scenes photos: Take candid shots of yourself, your employees, snap shot of your office or workspace
3. Statistics or data: Share new, relevant industry statistics (these perform great in terms of retweets and shares)
4. Post a link to an old blog post: There’s nothing wrong with recycling, and old posts
5. Questions: You can post questions related to social issues and provide brief info in the caption.
Social Media Content
Examples
Using the SOSTAC model think about your social issue.
Then draw up a 5-day / 5-week and 5-month social media content plan for your social enterprise. (Indicate a specific social media platform and your goal).
SOSTAC model can be applied to any social media planning and applicable for any business, try it out!
