Ensure that when potential new followers land on your Facebook Page, the design of your cover photo and your avatar is visually compelling. It’s for this reason that your avatar should be well-designed, not include text that is too small to read in the News Feed, or show any obvious errors in cropping.

We also encouraged people to change their avatars (see above). I also believe that it's more inspiring for an individual to feel moved enough by a cause and take action independently of the nonprofit. I'd try to figure out how in the world to measure how many people changed their avatars. The Social Media Roadblock.

Go Fishing Where the Fish Are If you’re like most professional fundraisers, you have more on your plate than you can get done in a day.
