Maximising Engagement: The Strategies Behind Successful Discord Communities
Discord is a powerful tool for building and growing online communities. With its versatile features and user-friendly interface, it provides an easy way to connect with others, share information and collaborate on projects. As a result, it has become ePlays first choice for bringing organisations closer to their communities.
In conjunction with ePlays, NBL Chainz and PieVerse have both recognised the importance of having a central hub for communication and collaboration within their communities. Discord provides a platform for real-time text, voice, and video communication, making it easier for members to stay connected and engaged.
Enhancing community engagement
NBL Chainz and PieVerse have utilised Discord to host Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions with influential individuals from their organisations. To date, these sessions have featured prominent figures such as Mitch Creek, an NBL23 MVP contender; Jeremy Loeliger, the NBL Commissioner; Jack Heverin, a famed commentator and host; and several Collingwood Football Club players, including Jamie Elliot, Nick Daicos, and Isaac Quaynor. These AMAs have taken place on the Live Stage and in text channels, providing an opportunity for members to engage with and learn from these individuals in real-time.
Furthermore, incorporating strategies such as giveaways, cosmetic roles, and invite contests can add value to Discord communities and foster a sense of connection among members. These engagement tactics can enhance the overall experience for community members, promoting a positive and dynamic atmosphere.
By incorporating targeted marketing efforts through popular social media platforms, organisations can effectively promote their community events and increase attendance, resulting in a strengthened and more extensive community.
