Webroot Business Dispatch
Since December 2012, we’ve been sending out a monthly newsletter featuring the best community content determined by community metrics and an editorial team.
Every month we see a big spike in visits to the community.
We wanted to match the success of the Community Dispatch on the business section of the community.
Our strategy and tactics
We added a business oriented Community Dispatch sent only to SMB customers, starting in June 2015. Our goal was to grow the business community as it wasn’t as active as the consumer side of the community.
Our results
We matched the 30% open rate of the consumer newsletter.
We’re seeing more questions and more answers coming from power users on the business and channel partner sections of the community:
More than doubled the business post views.
We started the business dispatch at the end of June 2015 and have doubled the business post views since that month.
