It is important to keep an eye of the ‘health’ of an online community, which is often mistakenly evaluated as the size of the email list alone. But a list that grows by 10% each year and generates less activity needs some immediate medical attention. Duane Raymond of online campaigning consultancy FairSay will look at some key benchmarks for evaluating the health of your online community: list churn, engagement level, email response rates, overall growth, etc. This session will also look at the tools in the Advocacy Online platform to help get some of the critical benchmark data.
