I help founders and small business owners build client and member experiences that actually make people stay. That matters more than ever right now, when so much of what's being built is AI powered, and people need to feel a real human behind it before they trust it, something a small business can build in a way a bigger brand can't. Client success is where most of my energy goes: the onboarding someone gets on day one, checking in personally the moment someone goes quiet, and turning what people are actually saying into the next real decision for the business. Community management is the layer underneath all of that; it's the space where those relationships actually happen. Some real examples of how this plays out: - I build full onboarding workflows from scratch, not just a welcome message. For one client, I built a choose-your-own-adventure style onboarding with quests to help new members connect with the brand, then simplified it into a more straightforward storytelling version once I understood what actually fit that client's audience better. - For a current client's platform, I personally welcome every new person, check if their profile or setup is still in progress, ask if they're stuck on anything, and review all incoming feedback every week. - If I notice someone go quiet, I reach out directly and ask questions. One quiet member once left a single comment that reshaped how I saw a client's entire business model, and we brainstormed to make the business more profitable - Turning what your audience is already saying (questions, feedback, DMs, comments) into content ideas, offers, and simple community rituals. For a current client, feedback that the platform felt unfamiliar and unclear led directly to a plan for building more visible authority on Instagram, so people could see the actual faces behind the brand, plus a short onboarding video walking new users through the platform so no one got stuck figuring it out alone. I like working closely with a small number of clients rather than managing a big portfolio of accounts. That means you get someone who actually knows your people, not someone spread across forty accounts. If your onboarding is losing people before they get comfortable, or you're not sure what your client or community feedback is actually telling you to do next, that's usually where I fit best.

🚀 I managed, led, and moderated an AI Discord community from 1k to 1.7M+ members with 100,000 messages WEEKLY. 🧑‍💻Managed E-commerce, AI, Coaching, Education, Web3, business, entrepreneurial, and Gaming servers. Small, Medium, and Enterprise level communities. ✅ Led a team of 20+ discord moderators & discord community managers. 💯 Optimized community performance & member satisfaction. 😊 Made a lot of genuine connections and engagements with people that made people stay! 🌐Worked with many influencers for influencer marketing ⭐Built a moderation system that works for you all around the clock on your discord. Save hundreds of man hours. Let's chat! 😄 Discord Community Manager Expert So, you want to create a vibrant community on Discord? And you have been listening to “cheap community managers” say To make a vibrant community, all you need to do is… → Use a copied and pasted template server → Use non-converting onboarding processes. → Add random bots that lack real engagement And whatever you do - Setting up unsuccessful Look, I'm going to be honest with you here. If you do this, → You will have an unengaging community and probably easily hackable server. And I'm going to guess that 1/2 of you are reading this. You're already in that camp →, and that's why you're here. BUT Discord is a tool that if used correctly Can create a warm, welcoming community and money! ONLY If you put in the effort required and Implement a system that works (my system) And how do I know this? Two reasons 1) I do it myself I managed the 2nd or 3rd largest discord server in the world. Part of the contribution allowed for the company to sell and have an exit. And one of the top discord community managers in the space. 2) I managed multiple discord servers with both a big and small team for corporate/startups companies So now you're probably wondering.. What the heck do I do now? Just DM me “Discord Dan” and let's chat. And see if the program might or might not be a good fit for you :) There is no such easy way out with cheap labor.

Most communities don't fail because they lack members. They fail because nobody has a reason to participate. I help gaming studios, Web3 projects, and creator-led brands build active communities that drive engagement, retention, feedback, and long-term growth. Services 🚀 Reddit-first community strategy, subreddit setup, posting calendars & mod workflows Discord, X, Telegram & Patreon Community Management 🎯 Engagement campaigns, AMAs, giveaways & community experiments tailored to Reddit 🔥 Launch support for games, NFT projects & creator brands using Reddit as a discovery engine 📊 Sentiment analysis, feedback reporting & community health tracking (with Reddit analytics baked in) Industries 🎮 Gaming 🌐 Web3 🎨 Art & Creator Communities My Approach I believe communities should feel human; not over-moderated, corporate, or artificially inflated. I build environments where members genuinely want to return, contribute, and invite others. Common Problems I solve: 📌 “Our subreddit is low-effort posts and no comments.” 📌 “Our Discord is dead.” 📌 “We’re launching soon and need Reddit + Discord support.” 📌 “We have a community but nobody owns it.” 📌 “Our community is growing too fast and we need better rules and mod systems.” Let's Talk Tell me: 📌 What you're building 📌 Your community size 📌 Your biggest challenge I'll suggest practical next steps and a realistic plan for growth.
