Welcome to this training on using twitter to promote your heartfelt cause -www.savendonate.com. In this video we will create a direct download link preconfigured with your organization and use a link
shortening service so we can post a message on twitter. This will let you encourage all your twitter followers to help increase donations to your cause. OK, let’s get started. First go to the
section on SaveNDonate.com to create a direct download link preconfigured so your organization receives the donations. If you are not familiar with this process please watch the creating
download links and button’s video for more information. We will need a simple link that does not contain any HTML code so Select Simple link from the link Type drop down box. The Event Code is
optional and used by organizations that sign up as partners to be able to track donations for their specific campaigns and events. Now click create link. Let’s copy the link to your systems
clipboard so we can use it with a link shortening service. Since twitter limits the size of the message to 40 characters it is common to shorten long links with services such as Bitly, Tiny
URL or Cligs. I will use Bitly as an example. Simply paste the SaveNDonate simple link in bitly and the smaller link gets automatically generated. You can now place this link in twitter
and encourage everyone who follows you to help your worthy cause. I have already logged into my twitter account and I will write, “Let’s fight hunger together! Just by installing this app you can
help. It cost nothing and money is sent when you shop” Now add your shortened link and…tweet! When your followers read the message and click on the link, SaveNDonate will download
preconfigured to donate to your cause. It is simple easy and it cost them nothing. This is an effective way to have your group of twitter follower help contribute to the most important cause, the
one you care about. If you are an organization you can sign up to our program by simply clicking the link - www.savendonate.com - or if you require personal attention on some information email us at
partnership@savendonate.com. Together we can make the world a better place to live. Thanks’ for watching!
