PRE-AGM Session 1
Friday, May 1; 2:15 – 4:15pm
“Take Your Association Online-FEZANA is there to HELP you”
Presentation by Arzan Sam Wadia, FEZANA Webmaster
Websites today are the de facto gates to any association. Especially in the case of Zarathushti Associations in North America, where the membership is spread far and wide of the physical headquarters. Keeping your web presence current keeps your community informed and involved. In this session we would like to navigate through the steps of setting up and maintaining your web presence and social media presence.
Sample topics covered:
§ Setting up websites
§ Steps to effective maintenance of the same and keeping them current
§ Integrating mailing lists
§ Connecting with Social Media Platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
§ Setting up secure online transaction portal for registrations and sign ups for events.
This session ties into the FEZANA Information and Technology Committee’s goal to help all member associations build their web presence.
