Working w/ a Streamer & Building websites, social media, and Community!

Hey everyone, again sorry for being so quiet. I’ve been doing some volunteer work as a Community Manager for a streamer (BloodieKnux) to help build up my resume and experience! While I have done some community management before (more volunteer work) it was with a MMA gym, focusing mainly on their social media.

This time I’ll be dipping my toes in the industry that is my goal….gaming and streaming!!

And unlike before, we’ve been focusing on EVERYTHING. From his social media accounts to his streaming profile to his discord. We’re revamping and building…and in some cases rebuilding, different aspects. I’m focusing on making sure that his community starts to get engaged!

That being said, we’ve slowly started with his discord getting people to talk more, getting him to talk to more, as admittedly, he had be letting it slide. We’ll also be testing out Guilded a new way to group chat and play games. Similar to Discord, Guilded provides a lot of the same aspects, but where Discord has throttled areas unless you pay, Guilded has not. As soon as we have that up and running; I’ll be sure to post the link.

We’ve discussed his streams as well and building up engagement and views for that as well. I’ve analyzed games he’s played and wants to play and have figured out the best days and times for those games; so far anyway, we know how interest and trends are always changing.

While he uses Twitter a lot, I’ve started pushing using Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, and LinkedIn as well. These are other social media platforms that can be excellent ways to engage and get new followers. I know this personally from experience! Even in Discord, being a part of others communities can help. I never advertise that I stream, unless allowed to, but some have found me due to my status on Discord when I go live.

Again once the accounts have been made, I’ll post the links.

In addition to all that, we’ve also been looking and trying out different platforms as well. Twitch, of course, Trovo, Facebook Gaming, and now Glimesh (which is a new platform that just released a few days ago).

There have also been talks with Sega community managers, who have dropped by his streams, retweeted, talked with him and the community, and have even given free codes to giveaway. Which leads me to my next point…

And, I know, I know, this is getting pretty long, I’m almost done, I promise! We’ve done giveaways!! As a way to thank his loyal community and for sticking with him (he’s former Mixer, did I mention that?) through it all. We want to make sure that his community knows how appreciative he is of them and sticking with him during while he’s still figuring things out and finding his place again out of Mixer.

I’m super excited to see his community continue to grow and become even more engaging!
