Social media marketing tool, Agorapulse, has launched its brand-new online community, Social Media Pulse, in partnership with UK-based digital agency, Cantarus.

Cantarus’ previous work includes delivering online communities for a variety of clients including the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management (CIWM) and The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT).

Social Media Pulse is the one-stop online community hub for social media managers to interact and network with one another, find educational resources and courses, and access the latest social media news and job listings. The community also includes discussion forums and dedicated user groups, allowing users to connect with relevant contacts within the industry.

Built via a combination of leading open-source solution Discourse, the Thinkific LMS, and Umbraco, the community is an education and collaboration tool that will enable social media managers to truly excel.

Paul Bradley, Head of Global Community at Agorapulse, comments:

“We couldn’t have asked for a better partner on this project than Cantarus. Their expertise in online community, along with their specific knowledge in adapting and developing Discourse solutions over time, was the ultimate decider in Agorapulse choosing them; they have helped us to deliver a truly meaningful, engaging platform that will provide our users with value and facilitate better conversations.”

Mark Eichler, Principal Consultant - Community and Products at Cantarus adds:

“We’re delighted to have helped our clients at Agorapulse to launch Social Media Pulse. This is an amazing resource for social media professionals around the world, and we’re looking forward to seeing the community grow and thrive going forwards.”
