Raphael O.
Circle.so Community Builder & Manager | Skool | Reddit Expert
Your members paid to get in. Now they need a reason to log in again tomorrow. I build and manage paid Circle.so communities for course creators, coaches and membership brands, and I handle the onboarding, daily engagement, moderation and events that make members feel the price was worth it. I also help brands grow on Reddit with organic posts that start real conversations. PAID CIRCLE COMMUNITIES I'VE WORKED ON - Knowledge Accelerator (Linking Your Thinking): a premium program on mastering how you think and learn - The London Writers' Salon: a global community of writers building a daily writing practice - The Pilot Institute: a premium community for drone business owners, with live coaching and workshops - Face Yoga Method: live coaching with a community that practices together - The Zebra Club: movement education for Pilates, mobility and body awareness - Bible Memory: a community and course for memorizing Scripture - The Gathering: a mindful space for slow art and self care - Honest Hounds: judgment-free education and support for dog guardians Writers, pilots, Pilates teachers, dog owners, people of faith. Every audience is different, and every one of them needs the same three things: a clear first step, a reason to come back, and a space that feels safe to post in. I also wrote the moderation guidelines and space structure for a Circle community supporting people on GLP-1 medications, where members share progress and setbacks openly and need to feel protected. REDDIT MARKETING Your customers are already talking on Reddit. I write value-first posts that fit each subreddit's rules and tone, so they earn upvotes and start real conversations instead of getting removed. - r/AskReddit: 3.6M views, 5.5K upvotes, 1.9K comments - r/AskMen: 992K views, 488 comments - r/romanempire: 182K views, 124 comments - r/Roofing: 89K views, 63 comments from homeowners and roofers All organic, no paid promotion. Certified: Circle Community Management Academy | Skool Community Management | Community Management & Engagement (Online Community Management Institute) | Reddit SEO & AI Visibility (Community Club) Maybe you are about to launch and want the space to feel active from the first week. Maybe members paid, looked around once and went silent. Maybe you are still the one welcoming every new member and answering every question yourself. That is exactly the work I take off your plate. WHAT I HANDLE - Onboarding: welcome posts, Start Here sections and first-week prompts so new members know where to go - Daily engagement: discussion prompts, announcements, replies and member spotlights in your brand voice - Moderation: community guidelines, moderator playbooks and calm handling of sensitive or difficult posts - Events: live calls, recurring sessions and a calendar members can actually find - Structure: spaces, courses and resources organized so nothing gets lost - Member support: answering questions and checking in on quiet members before they cancel - Reddit marketing: subreddit research, post ideas and copy, thread replies, and disclosed brand answers that follow each community's rules PLATFORMS Circle.so is where most of my work lives. I also manage communities on Skool, Discord, Facebook Groups and Kajabi, and run organic campaigns on Reddit. HOW I WORK 1. I go through your community as a brand new member, from signup to first post. 2. You get a short, ranked list of what to change first. 3. I set a posting and moderation rhythm that fits your tone and your members. 4. You get a weekly update on what happened, who went quiet and what is planned next. QUICK ANSWERS New build or existing community? Both. I can set it up from scratch or take over one that is already running. Can you write in my voice? Yes. I study your content and past posts before I write anything for your members. Is my topic too sensitive? Probably not. I have worked in health and faith communities, where trust matters most. Can you help us on Reddit without getting banned? Yes. I read each subreddit's rules and culture first and post like a member, not an advertiser. Tell me your platform and what is not working yet. I will reply with the first three things I would change.
