In the digital age it’s very hard for community managers to be constantly on their game. There is a demand for them to always be online to answer all questions that come up on social media. It can be difficult to keep up with that demand, not to mention, people online can be pretty cruel and not always aware of the person behind the screen they are talking to. This offers counseling and coaching for the community managers so that they can receive tips and other ideas to stay on top of their game, as well as give them a much needed break.
