Community Engagement Jumpstart, $15,000 with a money-back guarantee
Many online communities limp along with mediocre engagement levels. We’ve developed a process that guarantees a minimum 33% increase in engagement — or your money back. If you follow our recommendations and don’t see a minimum 33% increase in discussion posts from your baseline stats, we’ll refund every penny. This is an intense three month project consisting of:
– Community settings & configuration recommendations
– Development and implementation of a targeted community engagement campaign (yes, we can do the leg-work work for you!)
– To help you sustain engagement going forward, tailoring of our community engagement playbook for your organization and training on our process
Community Manager Outsourcing, Starting at $2500/Month
“If you build it, they will come” only works in the movies. Someone needs to manage your community on a day-to-day basis, taking proactive steps to increase engagement, not just moderating posts or reacting to what happens in the community. Outsource the process to us and get the most knowledgeable and experienced service available, the application of a tried-and-true community growth process, monthly reports, and recommendations to adjust your community strategy for the best results. We do all this for a fraction of what you’d pay an entry level community manager, who would spend months learning the nuances of private community management in an association context. Avoid that headache and save on headcount by letting Online Community Results serve as your outsourced community manager.
