Happy Friday, y’all! Curious to hear your thoughts - how do you feel about offering a discount to beta users of a new product or feature?

Personally, I’m for it if it’s packaged thoughtfully and framed as part of the beta benefits. My team, though, is concerned it could send the wrong message and potentially dilute the quality of feedback.

I think those risks can be managed if we:
• Recruit the right-fit customers
• Provide clear exercises or use cases for them to test
• Ask targeted questions to guide the feedback

What do you all think? If you are a part of a beta program, have you tried this approach, or seen it work (or backfire)? Would love to hear your perspectives!

Hi Everyone, does anyone here manage, own, or support a beta or early adopter program at your organization? I’d love to hear:
• What activities and responsibilities fall under your purview
• How you define and drive success for these programs
• Which teams do you collaborate with and on what topics

Looking to learn from your experiences and share best practices! Thank you!

Hi Everyone, working on putting together a product advisory council (can be called as CAB but product focused only). We already have a tactical feedback program so this one will be a strategic one with ~VP level and department heads. Avoiding C Levels to keep the focus on product advancement by solving business’s/ team’s challenges.

Would love to chat with you if you built something like this from ground up. What worked, what didn’t, any blind spots you can highlight for me. A quick 15 mins I promise :)

Thank you!

Thank you @Mary Green (Owner CMAweekly). I will keep that in mind for future posts.

Khoros users, need your help:
Does Khoros have a way to post product updates with notifications?

In Gainsight, we had a dedicated "Product Updates" section where only admins could post. Community members were automatically notified of new posts but could unsubscribe anytime.

Is there a similar feature in Khoros that lets admins share product updates and send notifications to community members who can opt in or out?

Thank you Joel!
Would still love to hear friends’ experiences here to build a case for/against the platform.

Haha exactly, @Joel Primack, trying to dodge the Circle of Regrets

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm curious to hear from folks who’ve built a user community from scratch on Circle — especially if it was a public community with a dedicated space for different segments like enterprise customers, creators, or small/mid-size users.

Even better if you were involved in the platform selection process — what made you go with Circle over other platforms?

Would love to hear about:

• What worked well (or didn’t)?
• Any tips for managing segmented spaces in one community?
• How you approached content, onboarding, or engagement?
Anyone out there with stories or lessons to share?
