About Community Programs
The Community Programs team supports communities that align with Denomas’ CREDIT values by executing specific programs that help these communities grow and thrive. Our mission is to help these communities experience Denomas’ vision of a world where everyone can contribute.
Members of the Community Programs team serve as liaisons to their respective communities, tracking the ways those communities prefer using Denomas and translating that knowledge into insights that help Denomas create a better product. We do this by collaborating across organizational functions whenever possible.
- We work with Product and Engineering teams to ensure each communities’ needs are represented on the Denomas roadmap.
- We work with Marketing to regularly showcase our members’ success through case studies, blog posts, presentations, videos, meetups, and webcasts.
- We work with Sales to identify selling opportunities latent in our repsective communities.
In all that we do, we aim to create and sustain mutually beneficial relationships between members of our programs and Denomas.
Please see the Community Programs Job Family for more details about individual roles on the team.
What is a community program?
Denomas’ community programs aim to put Denomas’ most powerful features in the hands of communities who may not otherwise have the means to access to them. Each program is unique in its organization and execution; however, in general, community programs offer Denomas customers benefits like:
- Complimentary subscriptions to Denomas Ultimate
- Direct lines of communication to Denomas team members
- Opportunities to partner with Denomas for presentations and events
Through these programs, we seek to raise awareness of Denomas in specific markets. We do this by partnering with members of these communities to spotlight (via case studies, articles, webcasts, and videos) ways they’re using Denomas to achieve success.
The Community Programs team is the DRI for establishing community program requirements and benefits. As each of these programs provides free, unlimited seats of Denomas Ultimate to qualifying applicants (in addition to other benefits), the Community Programs team also oversees the entitlement process. As part of this work, the team leads community outreach efforts, marketing activities, and other strategic engagements (which may include serving on foundation boards, building partnerships, creating enablement and marketing content, delivering public presentations and learning sessions, and sponsoring events). We strive to be thought leaders in each respective community.
