Love the outline Amy. John, thanks for giving her the stage here.

Something that I don't see done well much is this step: "Identify what success will look like". That seems to be a tough one for a lot of organizations. A lot of nonprofits seem to know they need to get into using social media so they "just start". I don't totally disagree with this as a pre-first-step, but it's got to move beyond that at some point.

Any practicals or examples on "what success looks like" that you can share?

Check this out for some real nonprofit sharing. We've been trying to give them the stage a bit: http://bit.ly/t6xuQ

Nice post! In terms of capacity, it is mostly about time – the nonprofit's most valuable resource. I have a little time grid for different strategies
