The challenge

Calendly wanted its customer community to spark creative, peer-to-peer conversations that pushed its internal teams to innovate, rather than functioning only as a support channel. Doing so meant shifting content creation from the company to its members.

The solution

Calendly built and scaled its customer community on Gainsight's community platform, cultivating discussions that let members contribute and meet each other where they are.

We wanted to have conversations that sparked creativity, and also make it so that contributions were actually pushing our internal teams to innovate and create and do things they've never done before.

The results, in context

User-generated posts now make up 60% of Calendly's community content, and the community reduced repetitive customer support tickets. The shift moved the community from a company-led channel to a member-driven one.
