The Big Picture
3. 1. Engagement Pyramid
2. Levels of Influence
3. Communication
4. Pro-active CM Services
Community Management!
5. Passive Customers
The ressources of vibrant communities are those, who might never even
log in to a community page, channel or forum. But: New community
members recruit from this level. If there is no healthy basic layer, the
community will dry out inevitably.
6. Listeners
Passive Customers
Listeners already associate with your community. They are well informed,
but not necessarily visible in engagement stats, although they are
engaged in community activities.
7. Contributors
Listeners
Passive Customers
Contributors are the „classic“ community members. They are highly
engaged, they take part in community activities, but they do not lead or
influence opinions. They join and backup opinion leaders.
8. Opinion Leaders
Contributors
Listeners
Passive Customers
Opinion Leaders can be viewed as the spearhead of the Engagement
Pyramid. They will express their love and hate as they feel it is the time to
„blow the whistle“ - then, Community Management is in charge to listen
seriously and react....
9. Discussion
Opinion Leaders
Contributors
Listeners
Passive Customers
...to facilitate and foster a constructive and healthy discussion environment,
which leads to utilisable feedback. With the Community Management
expressing the will of a brand to take the needs of its community seriously,
this will help to reduce negative opinions and grow positive sentiment.

Takeaway: Opinion Leaders can be viewed as the concentration of opinion
at the top of the engagement pyramid – what means: You need to think of
them not only as a single, vocal person, but also of the slew of supporters
and possible influencers following closely behind.
