Join Date: Sep 2005 Posts: 1,356 Location: Spring, Texas  | Do you have a launch team? I've never had a launch team to start up a new forum - but because my community is starting to grow at a rapid pace, I'm sure I could pick a few selective members to help me launch a new forum if I ever decided to launch a new forum. If you have a launch team, how many people are in it? What do they do?  | ||||

| I had a launch team on my forum when it first started but most of them actually stuck around and still post.

It only took an announcement or two at other forums before a few members started trickling in. Even if a new forum only has 3 random members, that's enough to start making conversation...and it just goes up from there. Look at Adam and cpvr...both of them registered at AF within the first few days of its existence, and they're still here today. They were not part of a "launch team", they were just 2 guys who probably stumbled across one of my advertisements or signature links.
