THE COMMUNITY
MANAGER’S MANIFESTO
 Created Collaboratively at “The Community Manager: Enter the C-Suite”
                 SXSW Workshop on March 13, 2013




                 http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                             manager-manifesto/
CONNECTING COMMUNITY MEMBERS, GIVING
 THEM VOICE, AND ENSURING A SENSE OF
 COMMUNITY BELONGING AND OWNERSHIP


• We must respect that a healthy community is inherently social. Our voice, tone, and influence
  are derived from our ability to relate as human beings first, and brands second. We must be
  champions of real communication and not surface messaging.

• We must understand the overall purposes of our community and the diverse needs of its
  members, and acknowledge that these purposes and needs can change.

• We must create spaces where community members are continually encouraged and
  empowered to participate. We must also realize that community design should be a
  collaborative effort: community members must have the power to help design their own
  communication tools.

• We must curate, recognize, and elevate valuable community-sourced content regularly.

• We must give our community members a sense of purpose and a strong motivation to
  connect: we must publicly share our unique vision and “reasons for being” with our
  community, thereby giving them a sense of belonging.




                           http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                       manager-manifesto/
MEASURING THE HEALTH OF THE
               COMMUNITY

•   We must recognize that there are many ways to measure the health of a
    community: determining the “right" metrics depends on the
    communication platform(s) used.

•   We must track our own community health metrics regularly, based on a
    deep understanding of our community’s purpose and members’
    preferences and needs. These metrics include but are not limited to: overall
    engagement and engagement by community segments, community
    sentiment, and membership size and growth.

•   We must embrace giving and reciprocity: the health of a community should
    not only be measured in terms of our own success, but also in terms of
    how we provide value to our members.




                       http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                   manager-manifesto/
CURATING AND AMPLIFYING CONTENT
          FROM THE COMMUNITY


•   We must establish clear standards and criteria for community curation,
    giving members the knowledge and confidence to contribute.

•   We must build a collaborative and empowering environment that amplifies
    community members’ voices and experiences, and also respects each
    member’s unique personality.




                      http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                  manager-manifesto/
USING COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE TO
    DEVELOP ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGY

•   We must represent the voices and opinions of our community members
    authentically.

•   We must acknowledge that community contributions are actionable data:
    they are vital to promoting innovation in and providing strategic direction
    to our organization.

•   We must seek reliable information and use appropriate measurement tools
    to validate qualitative and anecdotal community feedback and behavior.

•   We must empower ourselves and be empowered to take initiative without
    bureaucratic approval - even pivot direction - when community members
    offer timely and pertinent suggestions.




                       http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                   manager-manifesto/
TRUSTING THE COMMUNITY TEAM AND
     U N D E R S TA N D I N G I T S O B L I G A T I O N S

•   We must facilitate a vigorous feedback cycle and conversation: just as it is
    important for us to advocate for our community members internally, it is
    also important for us to advocate strongly for our organization, our brand,
    and our colleagues’ voices and opinions.

•   We must secure the trust of our colleagues by sharing our success stories:
    as frontline communicators who exist in “two worlds,” we must help our
    colleagues understand the calculated risks that we must take to meet and
    exceed our organization’s goals.

•   We must publish clear and accessible process-, protocol-, and service-level
    agreements, based on empirically grounded test-and-learn strategies, and
    we must actively educate our colleagues about these agreements.




                       http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                   manager-manifesto/
DEFINING THE COMMUNITY MANAGER AS
    EDUCATOR, NETWORKER, AND EXPERT


•   We must educate our organization about insights and opportunities
    provided by the community, and show our colleagues how they can
    contribute directly to its ongoing growth and success.

•   We must cultivate close relationships with community influencers—and
    motivate lurkers and occasional participants to become influencers—in
    order to grow our membership and strengthen our brand.

•   We must commit to the never-ending task of growing our own expertise:
    we must identify and craft effective community management strategies that
    transcend any one marketing campaign or organizational culture.




                      http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                  manager-manifesto/
DEVELOPING A VOICE IN THE 24/7/365
              NEWS CYCLE



•   We must serve as a key author in developing the brand voice and primary
    brand stories of our organization.

•   We must be empowered with enough information and relationship-building
    opportunities to represent our company autonomously and at a moment’s
    notice.




                      http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                  manager-manifesto/
PROVIDING EXCELLE NT CUSTOMER SERVICE
        A N D S H A R I N G V A L UA B L E P R O D U C T
                         FEEDBACK

•    We must invite and act on community feedback on an ongoing basis. We
     must constantly share this feedback with our own team members and use it
     to improve our organization.

•    We must respond in a swift, all-inclusive, and complete manner from start
     to finish.

•    We must strive to make community members feel heard, valued, and
     influential.

•    We must meet the community’s expectations at a minimum and exceed
     them whenever possible.




                       http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community-
                                   manager-manifesto/
INTERNAL COLLABORATION


•   We must work with internal stakeholders to define our community’s purpose,
    develop shared practices and processes, and determine binding communication
    guidelines.

•   We must collaborate with internal stakeholders to find and build tools,
    technologies, and platforms to maximize efficiencies and effectiveness.

•   We must update internal stakeholders about key discussions in the community
    regularly, and share any follow-up actions that arise from these discussions.

•   We must identify key areas where internal collaboration is necessary, and
    describe processes for collaborating effectively, including processes related to
    legal/PR approvals, compliance and audits, product/service education, and
    analytics integration.

Community Manager Manifesto

  • 1. THE COMMUNITY MANAGER’S MANIFESTO Created Collaboratively at “The Community Manager: Enter the C-Suite” SXSW Workshop on March 13, 2013 http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 2. CONNECTING COMMUNITY MEMBERS, GIVING THEM VOICE, AND ENSURING A SENSE OF COMMUNITY BELONGING AND OWNERSHIP • We must respect that a healthy community is inherently social. Our voice, tone, and influence are derived from our ability to relate as human beings first, and brands second. We must be champions of real communication and not surface messaging. • We must understand the overall purposes of our community and the diverse needs of its members, and acknowledge that these purposes and needs can change. • We must create spaces where community members are continually encouraged and empowered to participate. We must also realize that community design should be a collaborative effort: community members must have the power to help design their own communication tools. • We must curate, recognize, and elevate valuable community-sourced content regularly. • We must give our community members a sense of purpose and a strong motivation to connect: we must publicly share our unique vision and “reasons for being” with our community, thereby giving them a sense of belonging. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 3. MEASURING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY • We must recognize that there are many ways to measure the health of a community: determining the “right" metrics depends on the communication platform(s) used. • We must track our own community health metrics regularly, based on a deep understanding of our community’s purpose and members’ preferences and needs. These metrics include but are not limited to: overall engagement and engagement by community segments, community sentiment, and membership size and growth. • We must embrace giving and reciprocity: the health of a community should not only be measured in terms of our own success, but also in terms of how we provide value to our members. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 4. CURATING AND AMPLIFYING CONTENT FROM THE COMMUNITY • We must establish clear standards and criteria for community curation, giving members the knowledge and confidence to contribute. • We must build a collaborative and empowering environment that amplifies community members’ voices and experiences, and also respects each member’s unique personality. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 5. USING COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE TO DEVELOP ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGY • We must represent the voices and opinions of our community members authentically. • We must acknowledge that community contributions are actionable data: they are vital to promoting innovation in and providing strategic direction to our organization. • We must seek reliable information and use appropriate measurement tools to validate qualitative and anecdotal community feedback and behavior. • We must empower ourselves and be empowered to take initiative without bureaucratic approval - even pivot direction - when community members offer timely and pertinent suggestions. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 6. TRUSTING THE COMMUNITY TEAM AND U N D E R S TA N D I N G I T S O B L I G A T I O N S • We must facilitate a vigorous feedback cycle and conversation: just as it is important for us to advocate for our community members internally, it is also important for us to advocate strongly for our organization, our brand, and our colleagues’ voices and opinions. • We must secure the trust of our colleagues by sharing our success stories: as frontline communicators who exist in “two worlds,” we must help our colleagues understand the calculated risks that we must take to meet and exceed our organization’s goals. • We must publish clear and accessible process-, protocol-, and service-level agreements, based on empirically grounded test-and-learn strategies, and we must actively educate our colleagues about these agreements. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 7. DEFINING THE COMMUNITY MANAGER AS EDUCATOR, NETWORKER, AND EXPERT • We must educate our organization about insights and opportunities provided by the community, and show our colleagues how they can contribute directly to its ongoing growth and success. • We must cultivate close relationships with community influencers—and motivate lurkers and occasional participants to become influencers—in order to grow our membership and strengthen our brand. • We must commit to the never-ending task of growing our own expertise: we must identify and craft effective community management strategies that transcend any one marketing campaign or organizational culture. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 8. DEVELOPING A VOICE IN THE 24/7/365 NEWS CYCLE • We must serve as a key author in developing the brand voice and primary brand stories of our organization. • We must be empowered with enough information and relationship-building opportunities to represent our company autonomously and at a moment’s notice. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 9. PROVIDING EXCELLE NT CUSTOMER SERVICE A N D S H A R I N G V A L UA B L E P R O D U C T FEEDBACK • We must invite and act on community feedback on an ongoing basis. We must constantly share this feedback with our own team members and use it to improve our organization. • We must respond in a swift, all-inclusive, and complete manner from start to finish. • We must strive to make community members feel heard, valued, and influential. • We must meet the community’s expectations at a minimum and exceed them whenever possible. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
  • 10. INTERNAL COLLABORATION • We must work with internal stakeholders to define our community’s purpose, develop shared practices and processes, and determine binding communication guidelines. • We must collaborate with internal stakeholders to find and build tools, technologies, and platforms to maximize efficiencies and effectiveness. • We must update internal stakeholders about key discussions in the community regularly, and share any follow-up actions that arise from these discussions. • We must identify key areas where internal collaboration is necessary, and describe processes for collaborating effectively, including processes related to legal/PR approvals, compliance and audits, product/service education, and analytics integration. http://mycmgr.com/presenting-the-community- manager-manifesto/
