Hello! Community Pros 😊

Deals, noise, etc. No, you don’t need more of that!

Now it’s time to sit, grab that awesome mug with the gods’ juice, and start feeding your brain with your weekly community stamina! (Phew!)

Commsor has released a fantastic Community-Led Growth Report this week that is full of insightful data (and excellent graphics, by the way!). Please ensure to check that out.

Our favourite Richie has also shared a profound tweet sharing four methods to calculate your community value. (More value!)

The Almighty David also shared The Community-Member-Fit Score.

Let’s get started!

💌 With love Francisco and Led by Community Team.

PS: If you have wondered why this newsletter was muted during the previous two weeks. My family and I got smashed by a mix of Covid and flu, and who knows what else, taking everyone down. (At least we survived!) Back in town and ready to roll!

Community Industry Updates!

Thanks to Brian and Erica for taking the time to put the above together! 🙏
