“In the [community software] sales process, you identify stakeholders – people that are decision makers. A lot of the time they weren’t a community manager. ... It was a director of technology, it was a CEO, or other positions, and that warps your roadmap.” -Lincoln Russell

“In the [community software] sales process, you identify stakeholders – people that are decision makers. A lot of the time they weren’t a community manager. ... It was a director of technology, it was a CEO, or other positions, and that warps your roadmap. When those are the people that [the] sales team [is] sitting in front of, day in and day out, and you’re pitching an improved moderation queue, they want this button that does this thing. You’re like, ‘But that’s stupid.’ It doesn’t matter, if those are the people you’re selling to, [with] their own idea of community that doesn’t actually align with community management because they have internal business goals, and all they want to do are check those boxes.” -Lincoln Russell, Vice President of Engineering, uConnect; Former Director of Engineering, Vanilla Forums
