use of the documents for the face to face
communication (Roshan, Warren and Carr,
2016). It can include different confidential
documents including several brochures and
physical magazines and can be used while
communication face to face with each other
in proper meetings.

Digital Media Strategy for
Communication Plan
Digital media strategy is the part of the
communication plan of the “Salvation Army
Australia”. In this case, the best strategy that can
be used is named as “Owned media, Twitter
stories” is explained in below paragraph.

“Owned media, Twitter
stories”
In the digital media platforms, the twitter is the
most appropriate one for this organisation as the
other platforms use informal source of
communication and twitter is considered among
the professional one, so society takes it more
seriously as compare to the other ones.
In the case of “Salvation Army Australia”, the
twitter name of this organisation is ‘Salvos Australia’,
which helps their stakeholders, as they are available
to chat with them on twitter from Monday to Friday
at 9 am to 5 pm (AEST) (Twitter, 2008).
