Do you want to be the #eventprofs community manager?

I would like to thank everyone who provided their thoughts and opinions about the future of the #eventprofs chats. I heard from about 35 of you and the feedback was definitive:

  • All of you want the return of the chats (although many of you would like to reduce the chats to 1x / week)
  • All of you (except one) agreed that having a Community Manager is a necessity to keep the chats going

Given your feedback, I have pulled together a Job Description for the Community Manager based on my year and a half of experience retaining this role.

  1. The position will be a 3 month term. And, the outgoing CM will select the incoming CM to ensure a seamless transition. All past-CMs will retain an Advisory role for a year to participate in annual or bi-annual community discussions.
  2. I am committed to being an advisor to the CM (to ensure continuity) and will also maintain my role overseeing the annual #eventprofs Blog Awards.
  3. The chats will be changed to 1x / week. (This is how #eventprofs started and we moved to twice a week to ensure that our friends oversees could participate. We will actively monitor this to ensure we are serving the needs of the larger community).

Do you want to be a Community Manager?

If you said yes, you’re awesome!!

Please see the Eventprofs Community Manager Job Description

Submit your application before November 18, 2010 to hello {at} ready2spark {dot} com and answer the following:

  1. Name & twitter handle
  2. Why you think you’d be a great #eventprofs Community Manager
  3. Confirm that you have read the job description and understand the requirements & qualifications
  4. If your name is not selected for the first CM, would you be open to the incoming CM role

Thank you in advance to everyone who submits. The announcement of the selected candidate will be made shortly after submissions and the role will be active December 1, 2010. Depending upon the number of entries I may not be able to respond to everyone – please don’t take this as rudeness (I’m on a plane to Asia for 4 weeks).

Thank you to everyone in advance!
