Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The main goal for the project is to create and manage a Reddit engagement campaign to increase awareness of Volunteer Success and drive traffic to our platform. This will involve several different steps for the students, including:


  • Working collaboratively as part of our social networking engagement team.
  • Researching the target audience on Reddit and identifying relevant subreddits for engagement.
  • Creating engaging and informative content to share on Reddit. This includes responding to and engaging Reddit users who have posted questions about how to find a volunteer opportunity in Canada.
  • Developing a posting schedule and strategy to maximize engagement.
  • Monitoring and responding to comments and messages on Reddit.
  • Analyzing the campaign's performance and making adjustments as needed.


What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?


By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:


  • Research report on the target audience and relevant subreddits.
  • Content calendar and strategy for posting on Reddit.
  • Engagement metrics and analysis report.
  • Recommendations for future engagement campaigns on Reddit.


Final deliverables:

  • A final report including all research, content, strategy, and analysis.
