InEvidence created a great visual a few years ago. Here you go.

This is a nice post, thanks for sharing here 🙂 Great work!

Hi everyone, does anyone have a nice section (on your website) with CAB members? I googled a bit, there are pros and cons, I don´t wanna overcomplicate, ideally only headshots, name, job title and company (logo).

Hi Sharnae, Thanks for letting me know. I saw your application, we just started with the hiring process and we´ll come back as soon as possible 🙂. If you have any questions in the meantime, please reach out to me.

What helped us to increase the number of reviews, it´s simple as that -> free t-shirts.

#announcements - October 15, 2023 at 03:40 PM

Thank you all 🙂

Thank you Shannon, sounds good - it would be great if you @Mary Green (Owner CMAweekly) can provide me the slide deck and/or link to the recording 🙂

Hello all, We are working closely with G2 and their CSM and having great success with reviews, but would love to hear from you how you are leveraging badges, grid reports, overall content you are getting from G2?

Agree with Laurie, you really need to make sure it´s not hitting your own reputation in the market. Would never recommend to do something with "toxic brands" as it can hit you even harder. Imagine media, journalists are getting aware of it and reaching out to your company and start asking questions. I would anonymize it and focus on the use-case only.

Hello everyone, does anyone have an event list for the next 6 months? I know there's the big CustomerX conference next week, but unfortunately I can't be there. Maybe with a focus on content - I already googled it, but many events start from May/June 2024.

#announcements - August 01, 2023 at 06:56 AM

Thank you both, would love to chat. I will reach out to you via DM.

Hi all, I think I've seen a few posts around CABs and so certainly a hot topic for many. How do you make sure you choose the best city for the CAB (focusing on US) - e.g. Miami in January because a lot of people are working x the country? How do you handle different segments, groups of people (executives vs. IT practitioners), industries, products vs. platforms, etc.? Have you invited customers exclusively to be a member first, to make sure there is interest in joining the Advisory Board and being part of the whole thing? Have looked at Ciana's Lighthouse Program approach, if anyone is open to a chat about in-person experiences I would appreciate it. I think I have a good understanding of it, but never run a CAB/PAB by my own.

IMO, for internal townhalls 12-15 mins max, and this should be really on point. 4-5 questions are enough. + 5 mins Q&A. For sure it depends, what are the other topics of the townhall and it should be ideally aligned with the other topics 🙂.

For example, if you have DevRel or others who give frequent talks, you can think about working with them if the budget is tight. We have a Speakers Corner internally (not only tech related) where we also offer help and support to customers. That's very well received.

#announcements - July 13, 2023 at 02:29 PM

We have the same setup as Katlin describes.

#announcements - June 14, 2023 at 11:10 AM

I just published a [new testimony](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/aiven_la-redoute-scales-to-meet-unprecedented-demand-activity-7074692887438929920-kzaq/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop) - the first time I've used VFX animations in a testimony. I think it's often the case when you use non-customer broll/footage that it's boring, but check it out - feedback is welcome.

Great session, thanks for sharing! 🙌

Hi all, Hi @Mary Green (Owner CMAweekly), Did you record the review call? 🙂 Would be great, if you can share it with me.

#random - February 01, 2023 at 08:07 AM

Hi all, As I am based out of Europe it would be great if you can share with me the recording of the call afterwards please. I am also interested.

Hello all, Looks like LinkedIn has a cool new feature to add “featured customers”. Does anyone have experience with this feature?

#welcome - January 05, 2023 at 08:10 PM

Hey Kaily, Yes, I remember 🙂. Cool beans! Glad to hear you're getting a chance to work with Eric again. I saw Dana´s LinkedIn post 😉.

#welcome - January 05, 2023 at 03:51 PM

Oh yes, that would be great, during my time at VMware we also went through a major transformation from a regional customer reference team to a global team. I would love to share with others and get their perspective on different things as well when it comes to build a program from scratch (more or less :)).

#welcome - January 04, 2023 at 04:08 PM

Roles &amp; Responsibilities 🙂

#welcome - January 04, 2023 at 01:03 PM

Focus is to build the customer marketing foundation with clear R&amp;R, customer advocacy, review platforms etc. 🙂

#welcome - January 03, 2023 at 07:00 PM

Hello from Germany 👋! I'm new to the party 🥳 and happy to be part of the community! I work at Aiven as Director, Customer Marketing. I've been with Aiven since December, before that I worked for VMware for the last 3 years where I led the Global Customer Advocacy team in my last role. I look forward to the exchange and discussion 🙂.
