I know the job market isn't great for a lot of industries right now. How is it for community managers? I have been freelancing for a few years but miss having a steady job. Not sure if this is the right time to start looking or not.

My gf and me call each other everytime we have free time. However lately she seems disinterested in phone time. She never initiates calls anymore and she tells me she wants to hang up in the middle of the day and not right before bedtime. We live a 4 hour drive apart. And I told her this is like living together from a distance, because I put her on the house speakers. What can I do to keep her engaged?

I just finished what I thought was the final round of interviews for a job that I really want. Everything has been going extremely well. The recruiter just called to tell me that they want me to do one more round, though. This will make 8 interviews total, including a full case study presentation to 4 people. Should I be worried? Is this a red flag?

When someone complains about the product in the community, do you address it publicly or privately?

It’s amazing the power that asking easy-to-answer questions can have on a community. It’s a great way to get nervous users more comfortable with engaging.

I’ve started a new job and though they have a community, it has been stagnant for a long time. Would you face the change directly with a “we’re back!” style post, or just increase the activity without acknowledging the absence?

Are community manager conferences worth attending?

Moderators/managers for virtual communities actually have a pretty difficult job because the rules for posting have to be interpreted, there are very few hard and fast absolutes in this profession

I love the engagement part of the job but hate the data. Do companies ever hire just community moderators?

Do you allow the community to discuss your direct competitors?

I’ve been thinking about starting a blog for community managers. What topics would you like to see covered?

How did you get started in your career as a community manager?

I have a bit of experience doing social media management with online businesses but I’d like to try out working with local businesses in my area. What are some good strategies for doing cold outreach, and what kind of services would you offer to entice them to work with you?

I just left my job where I managed a community of 20-somethings and am about to start managing a community of people in their 40s. How different will it be?

Is there a need for freelance community managers?

What questions should I ask a candidate during an interview for a community manager job?

I need a magic spell to make employers stop asking community managers to design, manage ads and create strategies. As you read, a CM is in charge of your COMMUNITY. They're should not be doing the work of 4 people.

It's actually a lot of work to manage our online communities, but some people think my job sounds "fun" because I "get to" surf the internet for a living, if they only knew...

Nobody asked, but here I share the best 5 tools that will ease your job as a community manager:

👉 Canva
👉 Hootsuite
👉 Google Drive
👉 CapCut
👉Qoob Stories

Would you add or change something?

I'm thinking of experimenting with some incentives to increase our community's engagement. What incentives have you used in the past that have been successful?
