We survey our communities every 6 months to a year.

As a community manager, it's important to strike a balance between gathering feedback from your community and not overwhelming them with constant surveys and polls. The frequency of surveys and polls will depend on various factors such as the size of your community, the level of engagement, and the type of feedback you are seeking.

As a general rule of thumb, it's recommended to conduct surveys or polls every few months to gauge the community's satisfaction level and identify areas for improvement. You can also conduct quick polls or surveys on a more frequent basis to gather feedback on specific topics or events. It's important to communicate the purpose and importance of the surveys to your community and to show that you are actively listening and incorporating their feedback into your community management strategy.

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
