Value creation beats value capture.

The sales funnel is about extracting value, but that only works short-term. For sustainable growth, community can drive long-term adoption though value creation.

💡
“Value creation is healthier than value capture over the long-term. It's a chance for a direct, empathetic relationship between the company and customer.”
Jason Warner
Managing Director, Redpoint Ventures
“I view community management as the new pre-sales for companies. Their responsibility is growing and cultivating a community. That bubbles up into adoption and qualified leads.”
Chris Aniszczyk, CNCF CTO

MQLs and SQLs aren’t enough in a product-led world.

Instead community-driven companies build vibrant communities that leverage the entire audience around your products.

Community happens across a growing and complex constellation of platforms.
