Kim England and Lisha Crytzer have been business partners for a long time, and after an event changed their business, they decided they wanted to offer the same experience for others. They launched the Fast Inc. Network, and decided to do their first event big, by featuring Shark Tanker, Daymond John. We had an open and honest conversation about their first event, and the things they are going to keep the same in the 2nd year, along with the things they're going to do differently. Just some of what we talked about: - The pros and cons of producing an event over 1,000 miles from their home base. - If hiring a 'celebrity name' is worth it for their event - The biggest lessons learned from taking on such a large event - What changes in the next year, and how their marketing approach will change. - Plus much more!

Not every segment we record on Community Signal makes it into the final episode. One of the perks of being a supporter of the show on Patreon is being among the first to hear bonus clips and cut for time extras. That’s what this episode consists of: A group of clips that were released to Patreon supporters between June and July of 2017 and have only been heard by them – until now. With new insights from past guests Maggie McGary, Christopher Carfi, Kim England, Tracey Todd, Bob Hubbard, Scott Moore and Venessa Paech, this edition of the show is like a collection of short stories for community professionals, including: Lessons learned from fighting for buy-in for more than a decade When your community is deleted by a disgruntled employee of your web hosting company Candid reactions to Facebook’s inconsistent moderation manual Our Podcast is Made Possible By… If you enjoy our show, please know that it’s only possible with the generous support of our sponsor: Open Social. Big Quotes “The lesson that I’ve learned, that I still have to remind myself of every day, is that patience is essential. [Community] makes perfect sense to you, from the community manager point of view, because you understand it and can clearly see the value… [but put] yourself in their shoes and understand that change is scary, doing things differently is scary, extra work is scary. Put the brakes on yourself … and just really try to see it from the point of view of somebody who may not understand what community is.” -@maggielmcg “This idea that we have millennials and other labels for people in the workplace is actually really divisive, and I don’t think it’s helping when we start to think about how you engage employees. I really like to think about engaging employees based on their needs, their wants, and what they can get out of it and what’s in it for me. I think that kind of millennial discussion is really unhelpful, and it’s something that I have a serious bee in my bonnet about.” -@sociuscommunity “You have immense power in your hands if you’re in charge of any community. If you’re building a community, you’re at the very start of your journey. If you are in charge of any large following … you’ve taken over the role of media provider. Your followers are going to look to you as a content provider whether your ambition is sports, pop culture, politics. I say, for community builders, it’s really important that you recognize the responsibility of that role and that power and the impact of your post. [Do not] disregard the fact that there is immense power there, and a post could be literally life-changing, life-altering for any of your followers.” -@TraceyTodd “I don’t know if it’s just because context is tricky to scale but context makes moderation easier and more efficient, I would argue. It might make it more challenging in a few areas, but without context, you can’t possibly do [moderation]. It does explain why when you see the outcome [of so many of Facebook’s moderation decisions], you’re left scratching your head because you feel the absence of context. Why A and not B? Why that and not that? Why the picture of the woman breastfeeding but not the porn stars? It just makes no sense.” -@venessapeach Related Links Sponsor: Open Social, community building for nonprofits Community Signal’s Patreon campaign Maggie McGary, VP, strategy & audience development at 5:00 Films & Media (Community Signal episode) Christopher Carfi, director of content marketing at GoDaddy (Community Signal episode) Kim England, global community director at Pearson (Community Signal episode) Tracey Todd, digital communications director at the National Institute of Civil Discourse (Community Signal episode) Bob Hubbard, co-owner of Hubbard Photography and founder of MartialTalk.com(Community Signal episode) Scott Moore, formerly of Answers.com, the Charles and Helen Schwab Foundation and Fujitsu (Community Signal episode) Venessa Paech, founder of Swarm Conference and community manager at Australia Post(Community Signal episode) Community Signal episode with Denise Law, that Maggie tweeted about The GoDaddy Community Nobody Likes to be Called Millennial Liquid Web KenpoTalk, a discussion forum dedicated to Kenpo Karate Facebook moderators are trained to protect “white men” and not “black children” from hate speech Transcript View transcript on our website Your Thoughts If you have any thoughts on this episode that you’d like to share, please leave me a comment, send me an email or a tweet.

While at online education company Penn Foster, Daniel Marotta was able to prove that not only did students who participated in their online community take more exams and pass more exams, but they also paid more tuition and defaulted less on their tuition. Now at the largest provider of employer-sponsored child care, Daniel just launched a brand new community, and it’s always fun to talk to someone in the middle of a launch.

Big Quotes “I think anywhere we can take negative feedback and be part of that conversation, and work with the customer to improve our processes and services, that’s where we can have the biggest impact.” — @MassMarotta “In some cases, you’re pinning your career, or at least your time at that company, on to this software decision. It’s such a big investment, where if it doesn’t go right, it could literally mean your job. That’s got to be a scary thing.” — @patrickokeefe “It’s fun for me to dive into what we’re trying to achieve with gamification. How do we change that behavior with a member of the base to actually achieve that result? There’s an element of psychology with it, and then you tie it in with technology and marry the two together, and you start making movements in the community in a positive direction. That’s where I enjoy myself, really seeing the results from inception to execution. Then, as we all know, community strategies evolve and change, so must the gamification strategy. It is a living, breathing thing that always needs attention. You can’t just set it and forget it.” — @MassMarotta “I don’t know if community gets more fun as you get more experience, but it definitely gets more interesting as your process becomes more refined as a professional.” — @patrickokeefe About Daniel Marotta Daniel Marotta has been a community professional for over 10 years. He’s implemented community strategies that span financial services, high tech, manufacturing, and education industries. Daniel lives for customer advocacy and has been the voice of the customer for some of Fortune 500’s most prominent companies.

Kim and Lisha are self-made entrepreneurs who thrive on identifying opportunities and building successful business models. Their healthcare business model is a niche service that provides a relationship-based recruitment experiences for both the candidate and employer. For the past 16 years, CE Health Careers has been recognized as one of the premier firms by Canadian healthcare professionals interested in pursuing a career in the United States.  The post AALP 152 – The Art of Business Expansion with Kim England and Lisha Crytzer appeared first on Wealth Clinic.

Six and a half years ago, Kim England, global community director at multinational publishing and education company Pearson, led the company’s transition from a disjointed collection of more than 130 intranets, to an enterprise social network (ESN) powered by Jive. Recently, she said that Facebook’s move into the ESN space “should act as a wake-up call to Jive that they need to put collaboration and conversation back at the heart of their product.” Kim joins the show to talk about the current state of ESNs and what’s missing. Plus: The recent $462 million dollar acquisition of Jive and what it means for customers like Pearson What will determine the “winners and losers” in the ESN space over the next few years How well-connected ESNs help companies make better decisions across cultures, globally Big Quotes “[Workplace by Facebook] should act as a wake-up call to Jive Software that they need to put collaboration and conversation back at the heart of their product.” -@miss_england_19 “I still think that Jive has one of the best products out there. I make it my business to see what’s competing against it, and whenever I go to conferences and we talk about the various different vendors, I think Jive customers tend to have the more successful communities. They tend to have a lot less challenges, in terms of implementation. They get a lot of support from Jive. They’re a fantastic partner.” -@miss_england_19 “[ESNs that don’t focus on conversation become a] glorified 2.0 intranet. It’s not a collaboration space. … [Workplace by Facebook is] encouraging conversations. They are encouraging dialogue. It’s like Yammer on steroids. It’s exciting and it’s interesting, and it’s why people, who perhaps haven’t had an ESN before and are perhaps looking at it for the first time are saying, ‘This is amazing,’ because people know what Facebook is. People know what they’re getting with Facebook. Facebook doesn’t need instruction. It’s easy to use.” -@miss_england_19 “One of the things I felt when I listened to Facebook, talking about one of their [ESN] case studies with banks, was that they were a little bit arrogant, that they were almost the first people to do this. This is not a new space. And the case studies and what you’re talking about, we were talking about with Jive seven, eight years ago – for Pearson, six years ago. There’s an element like they think they’re the new kid on the block with the magic wand.” -@miss_england_19 “[Years ago, when Jive used to make big changes to their software, they would] ask customers, and we’d give you feedback. We’d tell you either why something wouldn’t work or why something would really, really work. That doesn’t happen anymore. We do feed into various different events that they have. I’ve been part of the advisory board for a couple of years, but I don’t seem to see any activity that actually reflects what I’m hearing from other customers. So, that, again, is where I think the wake-up call really needs to come from, because if they don’t listen to their customers – and the price point’s relatively expensive – why would I not look at other options, potentially?” -@miss_england_19 “If you look at things like Slack coming into the [ESN] market, it’s kind of free off the bat, but all these sort of little, miniature ESNs or small communities, they don’t really help the problem that an ESN is trying to solve, which is that you’ve got information in silos within an organization. Because the trouble is, with something like Slack and then having another tool and then maybe even having a Jive, is that they still all sit in those different systems. It only really, really works if you’ve got one chosen tool across the enterprise that everyone’s on board with, that everyone’s using, that there’s an investment behind. Resourcing it properly with community managers and training people and being really clear about its purpose, and then committing to it for the long term.” -@miss_england_19 About Kim England Kim England has more than 12 years of experience as a communication and community practitioner and, during the last 6, she has successfully implemented two Jive Software communities at Pearson, the multinational publishing and education company. She works at all levels of the organization to drive business value using Pearson’s enterprise social network communities. In addition to the overall direction and strategy of the platforms, her role supports the business through coaching and engagement to help leaders develop their own business collaboration strategies. Kim is a thought leader on planning, implementing and delivering social business platforms. She is a member of the Jive executive advisory board, co-founder of ESNanon and regularly shares her experience on the topic of enterprise social networks and building successful communities on the conference and speaker circuit.

Fast Inc. Network is an emerging entrepreneur network rooted in the lessons learned and applied by its founders to their own personal business. Kim England and Lisha  Crytzer ran a successful multi-million dollar healthcare firm assisting hospitals with hiring strategies, yet, after years of handling it on their own, their company's growth stalled.  Stagnated. It stood at the verge of bankruptcy.  Years of passion and hard work balanced on the line of giving up and throwing in the towel.  After a final leap of faith and attending an inspiring business conference. Kim and Lisha realized what they'd missed all along; access.  Access to specialists. Realizing their expertise was first-class, their experience and frustration wasn't unique; they were not alone.  They gained the access, tools, and trust they so desperately needed.
