The Community Manager’s Conflict Playbook Community managers are beautiful people — calculating and compassionate, resourceful and affable, dedicated and down-to-earth. We’re also brave warriors ready to do battle when needed — always with a cool head, a pre-defined code of conduct, and sophisticated crowd-control tactics. Face it: Despite the general, warm fuzzy perception of the community manager job description, it ain’t all sunshine and pussy cats. Those same friendly faces of the community we connect with daily can turn on a dime, from excited and engaging to hurtful or harassing. AimClear’s Community Manager Guide To Intra-Community Bloodshed covers the bases every serious CM should know, from defining a “crisis” to establishing a crisis protocol, addressing the masses to tips on removing comments and banning fans. This, the Community Manager’s Conflict Playbook, addresses various less-than-ideal scenarios and proposed solutions in a step-by-step outline. Issue #1: Bad Online Experience What’s a CM to do?

It’s now part of the SEOmoz Pro tools. You can import lists of Twitter influencers from FollowerWonk and use BuzzStream to build relationships with them.

Step 1: Search for Influencers in FollowerWonk In this case, I’m looking for influential twitter users that like tacos in Austin, so I’ll search for ‘tacos’ with the location set to ‘Austin’. As it turns out, lots of people in Austin are enthusiastic about tacos – FollowerWonk returns 124 results. Step 2: Export a .CSV and Upload it to BuzzStream So I’ll export my soon-to-be friends into a .CSV, and prepare to upload it to BuzzStream. Now, I’ll import it into BuzzStream. Now I need to match my FollowerWonk export fields with BuzzStream import fields. Thanks! mattgratt
