🗂️ Day 2 · Structure
Structure Your Community
A great community guides behavior. Today you'll map your spaces, define what happens in each, and plan how members will engage.
Step 1
Map Your Spaces
Start with 3–5 spaces. Each must have a clear purpose aligned to your community goals. Name it, give it an emoji, describe its purpose, and note who can post.

Step 2
Plan for Engagement
How will members interact? Check all the engagement types you'll use and add notes on how you'll implement each.
✓
Commenting — Members reply to posts for social points
✓
Liking / Reacting — A low-barrier way to engage and show up
✓
Reflection prompts — Guiding questions in each post to spark responses
✓
Sprints / Challenges — Short 3-day action loops with daily tasks
✓
Wins sharing — Dedicated space or post for celebrating progress
✓
Peer-to-peer support — Encourage members to answer each other's questions
Your engagement notes / custom ideas:
Step 3
Align Spaces with Goals
For each space, confirm it serves your community mission. Answer these quick checks:
Which space will drive the most member action/habit?
Which space helps members feel seen and supported?
Any space that might confuse members? How will you guide them?
