It’s been one week since we launched our first premium report for businesses, the ReadWriteWeb Guide to Online Community Management. The report has been well received and a handful of people have been kind enough to write reviews of the document and companion online portal on their blogs.
You can click here to learn how to purchase the guide or read on for a sample of reviews published around the web so far.
In case you missed the original announcement, here’s what the guide includes: The first part is a 70 page PDF all about the hottest issues in online community management. (Download a free sample of the document here.) It’s based on the best wisdom our research staff gleaned from hundreds of blog posts around the web (saving you time and woven together with our editorial insights) as well as original interviews we performed, a list of key resources for community managers and other content. The second part of the guide is an online aggregator that automatically serves up the most-talked about blog posts concerning community management each day. We think it’s a great resource for ongoing professional development. In total, this guide took our team months to create and we hope you like it.
