Policy
Before you create a social media account for your unit or department, think about the goals of this account.
- Who are you trying to reach?
- What is the purpose of the account?
- Is there a larger, established FSU account that may be better able to accomplish these goals?
If you determine a new account is necessary, the account manager must submit the application below. The university social media team can help you determine the most effective way to get your message across – whether it's by creating a new account, utilizing an existing one or looking at other forms of communication. All FSU-affiliated social media accounts must be approved by University Communications prior to creation.
All FSU-affiliated social media accounts are required to purchase a license for Sprout Social, the university-approved content management system (CMS). If you are approved for an account, you can budget roughly $1500 per year for this service.
Note: FSU-affiliated accounts must remain active. Any account inactive for more than 3 months may be deactivated or deleted.
