Creating a Social Media Account
If you have a vision for a social media account that is related to Huntington University or that represents an HU department, office, group, team, club, etc., you must complete the application process. Note: Creating and submitted the application does NOT guarantee account approval.
- Review our social media policy.
- Create a strategic plan — This plan would answer questions like: What is the goal of the account? How does this page further the mission of the group/department/team? How do you intend to garner an audience?
- Create a tentative posting schedule — This gives an outline of content for the account, ideally for 3–6 months. This is more than saying that you plan to post about upcoming events, student achievements, and articles relating to your office/department/group; this is where you actually create content and show that you have thought out a strategy for the page beyond the first 2 weeks.
- Specify your target audience
- List your administrative plan — Who is in charge of creating content and posting content regularly? Who is the backup person? If any of those individuals are students, what is the succession plan when the student graduates?
- Create a target three-month, six-month, and 12-month goal — To determine if a page is succeeding, goals must be set. This can be in terms of followers or follower interaction.
Once you have this information compiled, please submit it to socialmedia@huntington.edu.
