A thriving community starts with a rock-solid strategy

To build a thriving community you first need to build a rock-solid strategy. Through years of experience with community building, we know this is the most difficult step to take. Fortunately, you don’t have to do it alone. We’d love to help you navigate through this phase. We usually do this in three steps:

Getting input from your stakeholders

We start by conducting interviews with your key stakeholders and by gathering useful data from your current operation. In our experience, a good mix of external and internal input provides the best basis for your strategy.

Organizing strategy workshops

We organize multiple strategy workshops, in which we help you answer questions such as:

  • Why is a community the answer?
  • What positive change are we aiming for?
  • Which key journeys should be included?
  • What are the measures for success?
  • How does the community program integrate with the rest of our (digital) ecosystem?

Creating an actionable community strategy

We document the key findings and recommendations in an actionable community strategy and community program outline. You and your team will know what to focus on and how to measure your progress.
