Building a community can be a really tough job.  People come and go for so many reasons. Sometimes it's because they've outgrown what the community can offer.  Sometimes it's because life just happens and they need to cut back on expenses or take a break for awhile or whatever.  And sometimes people leave because they weren't a good fit in the first place and didn't find what they were looking for in that community. In today's episode I'm talking with David Masnato, the Community Experience manager for Pat Flynn's SPI Pro community.  Earlier this year, he participated in my Quiz Creators Course and Coaching program because he was interested in learning how to use quizzes to make the SPI community member experience even better. So I asked him if he'd share his thoughts about the Quiz Creators Course and the process we used to help him create quizzes which are already having a positive impact on the customer journey for SPI Pro members. Listen in as David, a highly experienced community manager, shares the reasons: Why both he and SPI are so intensely focused on improving customer experience How he identified ways to use intake and exit form questions to more deeply understand what potential customers are looking for from the SPI community, before they join How asking great questions in the form of quizzes is a highly effective way to gather data that makes it possible to identify gaps in user experience How the Quiz Creators Course and Coach program taught him to think differently about questions and the role they can play in understanding customers needs   RESOURCES MENTIONED The Quiz Creators Course SPI Pro Community (affiliate link) SPI All Access Pass (affiliate link)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In recent years, customer expectations have rapidly evolved. We've shifted from traditional grocery shopping to curbside pick-up, in-person doctor's visits to telehealth appointments, and gym memberships to home fitness setups.  What we wanted as customers just a few years ago is not what we want now.The same can be said for our P2P participants - our “customers.” What they needed and expected from our P2P programs isn't the same anymore. So where do we go from here?The first and most critical step is taking the time to listen and understand how ​​their needs, preferences, and pain points have changed - and bring them in to the evolutionary process.  Consistent customer engagement will not only nurture trust and long-lasting connections, but also fuel innovation, ensuring your relevance in a dynamic market.In this episode, P2PPF's Marcie Maxwell is joined by Mike Kinney, VP of Program Strategy & Community Experience at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Mike and Marcie discuss CMN Hospital's two signature peer-to-peer programs, Miracle Network Dance Marathon and Extra Life - both members of the 2022 US Top 30 - and how they prioritize deep relationship building and continuous active listening to stay on top of rising trends.

Isabeau Ottolini is one of the foremost experts on imbuing risk communications with values that are informed by communities themselves. As a PhD candidate on community-based communications at the Open University of Catalonia in Spain, Isabeau spends a significant amount of time thinking about how we can best reach those most at risk of wildfire's impacts, while also allowing those folks to inform how we approach them on this subject.The ways we talk about wildfire are often highly localized—and dependent on a number of factors like community values, history and available resources. However, the things that make for successful risk communication are largely universal, with mutual respect being chief among the elements of successful communication. This is a primary point of Isabeau's: that when we are talking to community members about wildfire or other climate risks, embracing a two-way communication approach (rather than top-down, as she calls it) is essential. In other words, ensuring that you're actually listening to the community you're attempting to communicate with.Isabeau is also a current member of PyroLife, which is a PhD training program that supports students across the globe to pursue cross-disciplinary, wildfire-focused research projects. She recently published a paper called "A toolkit for fostering co-creation and participative community engagement with vulnerable communities at risk," where she expands on many of the topics we cover in this episode—we'd highly recommend giving it a read. Timestamps: 05:36 - Introduction 06:51 - Interest in Wildfires 09:05 - Community Collaboration Over Expert Dictation 10:36 - Community Experience as Starting Point 11:35 - Limitations of Wildfire Communication 15:07 - Spain vs. US Wildfire Management and Communications17:43 - Communication as Top Priority 18:23 - Leveraging Social Media Platforms 19:38 - Tips for the Upcoming Wildfire Season 23:09 - Future of Wildfire Prevention Gaps 24:50 - Complexity of Wildfire Management

#073 Ever had a joke fall flat online? Robbed of many of the senses we rely on for communication, saying what we mean through text alone is tricky. But how do we cultivate trust as community leaders? How do we create a digital environment where assuming best intent is our member's default reaction? With Ingrid Christensen joining us in this episode, we discuss the powerful tools community managers can leverage to prevent many a misguided internet argument. Ingrid is an entrepreneur, a business leader, and the author of The Language of Trust.

#072 At SPI, we are betting big on community-powered courses with our new All-Access Pass. But there's someone on our team for whom the sheer thought of community management on top of course creation is the stuff of nightmares. In this episode, we tackle her concerns head-on! In her role as Senior Solutions Manager, Mindy Peters is the glue that holds our operation together. She also runs MindySolves.com, where her first online course launch has brought her community hesitancy into sharp focus. Mindy has witnessed the power of group learning first-hand at SPI.

Is there a way to run a course community without waving goodbye to her free time? Listen in on this fun conversation between Mindy and our host Jillian to discover the tactics that can change the game for overwhelmed entrepreneurs!

Balancing Community Satisfaction and Growth: Navigating the Fine Line with Jillian Benbow [Community Experience]

#1257 Today we're continuing our fantastic Where Are They Now? episode run. Emory Wanger, my returning guest, is someone who I often use as an example because of the incredible way he serves his niche. At ByLand.co, he provides backpackers at any level with the specific resources that make sense for them. As you know, we're deeply committed to online communities here at SPI. One thing we rarely talk about, however, is creating and running free Facebook groups. In fact, we've advised our listeners against that strategy here and on our Community Experience podcast. But are Facebook groups ever the right move for a business, and can we use them to attract and drive traffic to our offerings? Emory may have cracked the code! This chat is an inside look at how he runs his massive group of 30,000 members without it descending into chaos. Join us to find out more!

Enjoy, and Happy Holidays!#063 What is the best way to guide online discourse toward compassion and inclusivity? Research shows that it does not matter what you say or how you say it. When discussions go awry, what matters is that you say something. Today's guest, Dr. Evelyn R. Carter, runs cutting-edge studies on detecting and discussing racial bias. She is a social psychologist and president of Paradigm, a platform for building diverse, equitable, and inclusive organizations. In this episode, Dr. Carter shares the steps for planting the seeds of empathy in others and the gold standard approach for changing undesirable behavior within a community. She and Jillian, our host, chat about using research to inform and shape company policy, how stereotype threat theory affects us, self-regulating your bias, and leading with firm kindness. This is a fun and enlightening conversation that reveals the science-backed tools we can use at work and in our personal lives to reshape the culture around us.

#1215 Today I'm talking to Matt of SkylandersCharacterList.com, who's in an interesting niche—and an interesting predicament. (You may also remember Matt from episode 10 of The Community Experience!) He started a business in a very focused niche: selling collectibles for Skylanders, a toys-to-life action-adventure video game series that's no longer being made. It's been going well, but Matt is worried that his market might dry up. Matt started one inch wide and one mile deep. So should he go wider, or deeper? That's what we discuss today.
