Answer preview
One of the strategies USMS can use to prospect for donors and participants in a course to train adults on swimming is to spread stories on social media. The stories can include experiences in loss of life due to lack of swimming skills, and individuals benefit from USMS training programs. These stories can be shared by different people from the organization, including the CEO, CFO, coaches, members within their connections (Buvala, 2009, Nov 1). One limitation of this strategy is ethical concerns to avoid being manipulative to the social media users on emotions on a life lost by non-swimmers.
