    • This is da’wah, a quality call to Islam is the top priority
    • Make media an agenda point for monthly Associate Member Meetings
    • Start simple
      • Raw content is better than no content
      • Consistency is key, so limit barriers to posting
      • Quality does not always yield conversion
      • This work is secondary to actual organization work
