We’re pleased to announce a coordinated growth initiative to expand the reach and scale of the global Basic Attention Token community.
Jennie and Stephen, the BAT community managers we hired in early July, are leading the expansion.
Users make up the first side of the BAT triangle, and growing a strong global community of engaged users is vital. They are the publishers’ audience, but also provide feedback and spread the word as the BAT roadmap gets executed.
Using Regional FB BAT Pages for Growing Our Global Community
Facebook Pages are a natural starting point for growing our global community. They have a large user base and easy cross-profile sharing.
In this first phase, our community managers will make calls to action for regional volunteers to set up BAT Community Facebook Pages in their countries.
Our community managers will coordinate with these volunteers, providing a regional starter kit that includes graphics, information and other helpful resources to get their regional FB BAT community up and running.
From Volunteers to Regional BAT Community Leaders
Volunteers will become regional leaders for their BAT communities. These leaders will collaborate and brainstorm with their peers within https://discord.gg/batbrigade on efforts to help spread awareness and education about BAT in their regions.
Regional leaders will coordinate with their teams to write blogs, translate BAT materials and resources, organize meetups and test groups for trial phases in the BAT roadmap.
We’ve Already Started!
