"It's a great overview of what constitutes digital strategy with tangible suggestions in many areas for what tools work and at what price point." - Sean Kosofsky, Executive Director, Climate Advocacy Lab

"Even for a small campaign and media presence that I work in, I found it helpful to learn about all of the best practices, free tools, and how to combine these with serious goals. I'll be using this information today." - Eric Halvarson, Organizer, College and University Recycling Coalition


"An awesome database of resources, concrete next steps, costing, and more. Definitely worth saving the slide deck for reference! The quiz questions are helpful for focusing your learning" - Juhi Sohani, Organizer, Climate Climate Justice Montral

"I wish SMT had existed when I started organizing in 2010! I learned many of these skills on the fly, often through trial and error. Overall it is really helpful to learn about all of the new tools which exist, especially ones that non-profits can use for low or no cost. The presentation did a great job of outlining best practices for many different scenarios." - Isaac Silberman-Gorn, Mechanic Mentor, Baltimore Youth Kinetic Energy
