Community Building: A 5 Step Roadmap
Use this five step process for building a community development roadmap.
Start with a 4P value mapping for each of your community segments where you map the values that drive someone to be part of each community segment.
Follow this by a persona mapping where you identify personas that you want as part of each community segment and map them to each.
In the thirst step, based on the personas you mapped to each segment and the values you know will bring them to participate in their respective community segment, identify the activities that you need to run.
In the fourth step, you list all the activities you want to run, and identify the personas who can help you run those activities.In the last and final step, based on the community building objectives you want to achieve, create a roadmap of activities, assigned ownership and transfer it into a roadmap.
With these 5 steps, and the template, you can run a workshop to align your team and organisation on an effective community development roadmap. All of these can be done in 2-3 sessions.
Recommended split:
Session 1: Step 1 and 2
Session 2: Step 3 and 4
Session 3: Step 5

Job Map Template
Works best for:
Design, Desk Research, Mapping
Want to truly understand your consumers’ mindset? Take a look at things from their perspective — by identifying the “jobs” they need to accomplish and exploring what would make them “hire” or “fire” a product or service like yours. Ideal for UX researchers, job mapping is a staged process that gives you that POV by breaking the “jobs” down step by step, so you can ultimately offer something unique, useful, and different from your competitors. This template makes it easy to create a detailed, comprehensive job map.
Communication Roadmap
Works best for:
Roadmap, Mapping, Planning
The Communication Roadmap template enables teams to plan and execute effective communication strategies. By outlining key messages, channels, and stakeholders, teams can ensure consistent and targeted communication throughout a project lifecycle. This template fosters alignment and transparency, enabling teams to engage stakeholders effectively and mitigate risks associated with miscommunication.
Conversion Funnel Backlog Template
Works best for:
Decision Making, Product Management, Prioritization
If you’re working on a product that has clear conversions, then it can help to structure your backlog around the conversion funnel to make sure you’re reaching your audience. Creating a conversion funnel backlog brings together information around potential pain-points in your funnel and opportunities for growth. Once you’ve identified that information, it becomes easier to prioritize. You and your team can use the conversion funnel backlog to focus on conversion, retention, and referral, or to tweak your workflow in more mature products.
Design Brief Template
Works best for:
Design, Marketing, UX Design
For a design to be successful, let alone to be great, design agencies and teams have to know the project’s goals, timelines, budget, and scope. In other words, design takes a strategic process—and that starts with a design brief. This helpful template will empower you to create a brief that builds alignment and clear communication between your business and your design agency. It’s the foundation of any creative project, and a single source of truth that teams can refer to all along the way.
