About Mathew Anderson

As a trailblazing community and public relations manager for over 20 years, I\'ve had the great pleasure to direct, support, and develop some truly soulbound online communities. My experience includes building and managing a team of communications staff, connecting the community with developers and press, establishing influencer relations, organizing outreach campaigns, developing online content plans for critical launch dates, and being the trusted face of the company for all of its products. I have a passion for getting a community engaged around a common experience and ensuring communications are open between the company, its dedicated followers, as well as press and partners. Each company and its community will have different needs, and thus a different set of strategies will be necessary to foster and manage them. Specialties Include- Directing communities around multiple interests and age ranges - Managing a team of community managers, moderators, and volunteers - Establishing strategic communications between a company and its audience - Communications and PR leadership with press and partners, including at trade shows - Creating communities from the ground up with tends of thousands of members - Creating content release strategies between the community and developers - Managing influencer relations across multiple platforms, including for livestreamers - Creating global communication policies and conduct guidelines - Leading events and tournaments, including at international trade shows - Designing and managing website portals that match the company\'s brand - Developing user sentiment and future expectation reports - Developing beta and early access programs
