Hello! Community Pros π Happy Monday to you!
Just in case you thought: Where is the newsletter from this week? Then here we are, a bit later than usual. (Later is better than never, my mum used to say)
FYI, we have partnered with the Community-led Alliance to bring to our readers a special offer for their Community-led Core Certification.
What will be happening this week?
We got a value-packed event featuring Ilker Akansel, focused on helping community strategists and consultants scale their businesses by learning the trends, his framework and the best way to grow a consultancy model.
We have been hosting meetups every two weeks. If you are not yet registered to join us, please do it HERE.
Last week, Richard Millington shared a fantastic guide on how strategic we can be, good examples and questions to analyze before planning your next series of events. (link below)
Commsor featured a guide on How to set up a thriving Discord server.
From Bettermode, connecting LMS experiences with engagement in your customer community. Worth a read.
Common Room: Tapping into community for intent-based marketing. (Gem!)
As usual, all featured roles and the Pro newsletter are below.
We have simplified this section so you can scan the best from last week by scrolling down. (Fewer images too!)
We are 130+ Citizens inside the Nation for Community Pros on Slack. Apply to join HERE.
See you next week!
π With love Francisco and Led by Community Team.
On Twitter this weekβ¦
Are your community events strategic? Or do you simply enjoy hosting them?
There's a tendency to host events simply because it feels like a good thing to do.
The problem is events consume HUGE amounts of resources.
I'd suggest taking a more strategic approach.
