Why are they so important?

As mentioned above, community managers bridge the gap between customers and brands; in other words, They will be the ones who cover the voice of the brand as well as bring the brand’s image into the everyday stories in the community.

The community manager team will mainly observe the feedback from the members so that they can assist in determining whether or not followers are perplexed and what sorts of changes they observe in online forums. To engage target audiences the most successfully, some managers claim to have acquired an intuition for the psychology of their audience.
