INSIGHT

Community As A Long-Term Moat

  • Community is a long-tail investment and may not show immediate metrics like other GTM channels.
  • Treat community as a potential moat and tie short-term programs to business goals while keeping a long-term view.
ADVICE

Turn Power Users Into Service Partners

  • Launch programs that enable people to build businesses around your product, like a certified consultants directory.
  • Those partners bring customers and unlock use cases the company wouldn't have built itself.
ADVICE

Mobilize Ambassadors As Extensions Of The Team

  • Recruit and support passionate super users with an ambassador program to let them run local groups and events.
  • Treat ambassadors as an extension of your team and provide early access, resources, and direct channels to product teams.
