Guiding Factors for Enterprise Communities
• Integrating interactivity into the enterprise business model
– Companies need to think more about ways to bring online participation into
their business models in ways that serve the business and the customer goals
alike.
– People’s expectations are changing.. They no longer want to be passive
recipients of information and experiences.
• The human process & trust factor
– what works in the face world will work in an online environment – but broken
process in real life can’t be fixed by putting a tool atop.
– Need clear definition about what are the behaviors the business wants to
support before launching a tool to support it.

Enterprise Community is NOT Marketing
• Community members provide valuable information, content & feedback to
marketing/membership.
• Marketing/membership provides value added services and products to members
in exchange for interaction.
• Identifies and sells the
community to prospects
• Hands the new members
over to the Community team
HandOver
• Manage the member lifecycle
• Create value for members
• Establish trust
• Create Leaders and “Most Valued
Members”
• Create opportunities for Marketing
to interact with the membership
