The NetSquared Ambassadors wrapped up their 2017 term on December 31. Their contributions continue to be a major part of NetSquared's success and growth because they give us local expertise and connections. I tried to measure their impact at the end of the previous year and the numbers continue to hold true.
Total New Organizer referrals in 2017: 115
- Paul=14
- Pascal=4
- Ednah=5
- Chrispin=8
- Birgit=6
- Emmanuel=14
So 44 percent of organizer referrals came from Ambassadors, which is a huge accomplishment for a team of seven!
What's Next For the Ambassador Program?
We're still developing our plan, but if I had to guess I'd say that in 2018:
- The Ambassador program will continue.
- The budget will be reduced, which means I won't be able to bring Ambassadors together for training and consultations at the Nonprofit Technology Conference.
- There's a strong possibility of the introduction of an honorarium for Ambassdors.
- The future of the Regional Gathering funds for local gatherings is uncertain.
- Ambassadors will be given monthly goals for support calls/outreach and referrals to new organizers
- After two terms I want to refresh the Ambassador team to bring in some new members.
I hope to be able to share more by mid February. But in the meantime please join me in thanking the 2017 NetSquared Ambassadors for their enormous contributions to building the #Tech4Good capacity of nonprofits globally.
