How to write a sentiment report ✨ Community Dev Newsletter #47


Community Dev Newsletter

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

It's my birthday month, woo! πŸ₯³ This newsletter is one that I've gotten A LOT of questions about over the past few years, so this is my present to youuuu.

This month's newsletter:

  • What is a sentiment report and how to write one (with an example!)
  • A community activity
  • Cool marketing/community related links and job posts

Sentiment Reports πŸ“

This one was a muuuuuch larger topic, so I published it on my website! Give it a read - it basically goes over:

  • What is a sentiment report?
  • Are they even needed?
  • How to create reports - with tips on whether you use an automated tool or manually do it!
  • A (redacted) example
  • Challenges that come with reports

Community Activity πŸ“

Every month I ask a skill testing exercise! Have an activity idea or want to ask a question? Submit one anonymously.

The question:

How do you organize your social beats or community campaign calendars? Spreadsheet? Scheduling tool? Something else?

Feel free to email me back with your answer! I always respond.
