2. Orient us to your client and their work
Non-profit corporation
Through lacrosse education and training, SALP
empowers at-risk youth by helping them to recognize
what they are capable of accomplishing in their lives.
What they do:
Assist in the development and promotion of HIV prevention
programs for orphans in South Africa.
Implement and coordinate a lacrosse program in South Africa
for at-risk youth.
3. What was your role In the project?
Were hoping to increase their web presence and
drive their website traffic.
Established Facebook content ideas.
Started a Twitter account.
Gave them insight about the importance of using
social media.
Operations Manuel details how to use each site
recommended.
4. What two things worked best?
Created an implementation plan for
Facebook
Twitter
Instagram
Youtube
Inspired SALP to use social media
Promotion
Marketing
Networking tool
Now have direction
5. What would we do differently?
Have a better game plan before the first meeting.
Try to have biweekly meetings.
Better understanding of their commitment.
Show them example postings to gain trust.
6. Was the experience worthwhile?
Learned how to perform tasks, not implement them.
Clients could have been more receptive.
7. How did you feel at the completion of the
experience?
Don’t feel 100 % complete.
Cant feel complete until SALP implements our ideas.
Could have felt more complete with a more receptive
client who was open to communication.
A client who knew what they wanted or was even
looking for help.
8. Should the client based exercise happen again?
Yes but make sure client expectations are spelled out
in the beginning.
Possibly get clients from Salisbury and surrounding
area.
Have bi-weekly update reports from client and
students.
Can be a very beneficial learning experience for both
parties.
9. What was the most important thing you learned?
Trust is key to success
Communication is necessary
Location of client is important
10. Additional Comments and Questions
Does anyone have any questions regarding who our
client is, what we did for them, or what we took away
from this experience?
