About Communities
Whether we realize it or not, most of us belong to one or more communities. Think about schools, co-workers, sports teams, clubs, museums and towns. Communities can be local or interest-based. Community members want to contribute to and learn from each other. -
Managing Communities is a Challenge
Existing tools just don’t cut it. Email marketing tools inform on an as-needed basis, but do not provide an opportunity for community dialog or engagement. Paper newsletters are the worst of all: they are a non-green, one-way dump of information that too often end up in the circular file. -

Being able to appoint multiple reporters really takes the content job and distributes it among all our citizen journalists.”

“We are a non-profit organization that puts on concerts and donates the proceeds to various charities. Our website was too cumbersome and expensive to maintain to keep our 700 members informed of all our activities and upcoming concerts. We were thrilled with how easy it was to get our Kontribune newsletter up and running. We now publish articles about our concerts, complete with pictures and YouTube links the morning after each concert.”
