My name is Michael Alaka, and I am an experienced and dedicated Community Lead with 2 years of proven, hands-on experience building, managing, and scaling thriving online communities. I bring leadership, strategy, and genuine human connection to every community I oversee — creating spaces where members feel valued, engaged, and deeply invested in the projects they are part of. Available on a weekly basis from just $100 per week, I offer professional community leadership that delivers real, measurable results without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Who I Am

Over the past two years I have immersed myself fully in the art and science of community management. I have learned what makes communities grow and what makes them stagnate, what keeps members engaged and what drives them away, and what separates a community that merely exists from one that genuinely thrives. That knowledge — earned through real experience, real challenges, and real results — is what I bring to every community I lead.

I am not just a moderator who keeps things tidy. I am a community leader who takes ownership. I set the tone, build the culture, develop the systems, and drive the engagement that transforms a group of individuals into a genuine, loyal, and active community. I care deeply about the communities I manage and treat every member interaction as an opportunity to strengthen the community's foundation and reinforce its values.

I am collaborative, communicative, and committed. I work closely with founders, marketing teams, and project leads to ensure the community strategy is always aligned with the broader business goals — and I report clearly and consistently so you always have full visibility into what is happening in your community and why.

What I Specialise In

Community Leadership & Culture Building — Setting the tone, establishing the values, and creating the culture that defines your community's identity. I build environments where members feel a genuine sense of belonging, pride, and purpose — the foundation of any truly engaged community
Engagement Strategy & Execution — Developing and implementing structured engagement plans that keep your community consistently active — AMAs, polls, challenges, discussion prompts, community events, and milestone celebrations that give members reasons to show up every day
Member Onboarding & Retention — Creating seamless, welcoming onboarding experiences for new members that immediately connect them to the community's value and culture. I build retention systems that reduce churn and keep your most valuable members engaged long-term
Moderation & Community Health — Maintaining a safe, positive, and respectful community environment through proactive moderation, clear guidelines enforcement, and fair, consistent conflict resolution that protects community culture without alienating members
Community Growth & Expansion — Implementing organic growth strategies that attract the right new members — people who genuinely align with your community's mission and add real value to the ecosystem
Cross-Team Collaboration — Working directly with marketing, product, and leadership teams to ensure community insights, feedback, and sentiment are flowing into the broader organisation — turning your community into a genuine strategic asset
Analytics & Performance Reporting — Tracking key community health metrics including active member counts, engagement rates, retention, growth, and sentiment — delivering clear weekly reports that give you full visibility into community performance and trajectory
