By Shannon Abram, Director of Marketing at The Community Roundtable.
The 7th annual State of Community Management research survey and contributions is rolling along – do I sound like a broken record yet? If so, at least I have a good reason. The SOCM is the community industry’s most comprehensive research platform and the data collection period is one of the most important times of the year for us!
I cannot stress enough how important this research is – and how valuable your contributions are to us, and to the community industry as a whole. The larger sample size we collect the deeper the insights we can provide – free – to you, and community manager around the world!
