What is a Community or Community Management?

Are you a United fan? Do you like Game of Thrones as much as I do? Would you like to join us for the trekking session next week?

When we build certain questions and create a customer base, we are in a way building communities. Communities that grab few similar instances or likings are more likely to fall in one group! Your community that you build is much more than a relationship, its your backbone. When you frame a bond with your customers, your trust should be inhaled the first thing in the making. They are your best critique and best teachers. Your brand’s price and esteemed value is defined by the quality that you concentre, the promises that you keep and the approach you take to meet their prospects.

As quoted by Mr. Akash Prakash [CM at UpGrad Xchange], Community is a group of people with shared interests who are committed to create opportunities in that domain and rise equally with it. Mr. Arkodyuti Saha [Mozillian] believes community is just a loop of thread and management of that loop is community management. Community is a place where people feel connected and safe with each other in the vicinity, said Mr. Amit Shekhar [Founder @ Mindorks].

Asha Chaudhary [ Advisor,Community @ BabyChakra] has beautifully discussed about Community management in one of her blogs. She concludes that a community manager should have certain skills: He should be a people’s person, a problem solver, patient listener, effective communicator, multi-tasker, pro-active, inclusive and always in help mode. Doesn’t this encompasses everything that we are looking for? A heal for all the questions who don’t yet understand the logic behind community build ups and their exigency in the making.

Stay with us, for we will be dealing with all the nitty-gritty terms of community management and communities themselves.
