The functions of community management
Customers have questions on products and how to use them, on events, prices and availability – traditional topics in customer support. Should things get too quiet, the community management agency prepares interesting posts to stimulate interactions, comments and discussions and to build the community. A community needs to remain active in order to grow and create reach for topics placed by the company.
Consequently, professional community management is the foundation of a successful social media strategy. Long-standing, deeply ingrained internal company structures can hamper the evolution of a comparatively new sphere. Classic public relations is not suitable for covering community management. It is too different from the living, breathing dialogue taking place on social media platforms. Social media channels require ongoing maintenance. A solution lies in engaging a community manager, or alternatively in outsourcing the community management.
We continuously build your community on the basis of customer-centric, authentic communication, enhancing customer satisfaction and consequently customer loyalty and retention. We turn brand critics into committed brand ambassadors. To do so, we measure your proactive and reactive communication, develop target group specific and channel specific content and place this content in the relevant networks at the right point in time.
Editorial plans that are individual and agile
Another important factor in community management is the fan base activation. Essential for this is a proper editorial plan that includes value-adding content and is in line with requirements. The focus is on joined creation with the users, enabling and driving a positive brand experience. For optimal reach, the editorial plan must be agile and subject to continuous optimization. That is the only way to achieve the greatest possible extent of organic reach.
