What to look for in a Community Management freelancer
A strong community manager builds belonging, not just activity. Look for:
- A genuine people-first temperament, patient and even-handed.
- Platform fluency: Discord, Slack, Circle, or Facebook Groups.
- A moderation philosophy: how they handle conflict and trolls.
- Consistency and presence: they show up daily, not in bursts.
- Examples of communities they grew, with the tactics they used.
Ask how they would respond to a heated argument between two members in your space.
