From Nov. 1 to 15, creators of social media posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter with #DiscoverSteno are eligible to earn a $200 Amazon gift card from NCRA.
NCRA is launching a social media hashtag campaign to spread the word about the great professions of court reporting, captioning, scoping, and legal videography. Participants will be eligible for one of three $200 Amazon gift cards that will be randomly awarded.
Examples of posts could feature an anecdote, a quote, a photo of a steno setup, or something behind the scenes.
The hashtag campaign is intended to extend the message beyond the usual court reporting circles. Therefore, posts are encouraged to be made in groups and pages unrelated to the profession, such as fan groups, neighborhood pages, and hobby groups – anywhere that there may be people who could be looking for a new career and are unaware of the possibilities of a court reporting profession. Please be sure to tag @NCRA in your posts.
“This is an exciting way to get the word out about our awesome careers to a much wider audience,” said NCRA Board of Directors Member Cindy Isaacsen, RPR, CRR, an official court reporter from Shawnee, Kan. “We need to get the message to people outside of our industry, and our active ‘socialites’ are just the ones to do it!”
Make sure to follow NCRA on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to see everyone’s #DiscoverSteno posts.
