When many first start a Web3 project, they are the face of the project. All of the updates, all of the interactions, all of the customer service- it's all the responsibility of the founder(s). So you may wonder: When should I hire a community manager? What does a community manager do? How do I hire a community manager? And finally- how much should I pay them?
