28-community-building
This Claude Code skill provides a comprehensive framework for building engaged communities around Vietnamese personal brands using platforms like Zalo, Telegram, Facebook Groups, Skool, Mighty Networks, and Discord. Use it when establishing a defensible moat for a personal brand by transitioning from passive audiences to active member-to-member connections, including platform selection guidance, three-tier community architecture, seven-day onboarding flows, weekly engagement rituals, moderation protocols, and common Vietnamese market anti-patterns.

Use when the user needs an overall marketing plan for a period — objectives, segments, positioning, channel mix, content direction, budget, timeline, KPIs, and a risk matrix, adapted to US, EU, SEA, or LATAM. Trigger on 'marketing plan', 'marketing strategy for next year', 'go-to-market roadmap', 'plan for Q3', 'we have no marketing plan', 'where should we spend next quarter'. Also use when a founder only says the business needs to grow and has no idea which channel to start with. Not for — one specific campaign, see `02-campaign-brief-global`; working backward from a revenue goal to spend, see `10-reverse-kpi-global`; splitting a budget across channels and months, see `61-budget-planning-global`; taking a brand new product to market, see `59-go-to-market-global`.
Use when the user needs a monthly or weekly content calendar — posting schedule per channel, funnel ratio, content pillars, repurposing matrix, and an owner per slot. Trigger on 'content calendar', 'posting schedule', 'what should we post this month', 'editorial calendar', 'social media plan', 'we post randomly with no plan'. Also use when the user only says the team keeps running out of things to post. Not for — the brief for one specific post, see `36-content-brief-global`; the caption text itself, see `37-social-caption-global`; deciding next period content from last period data, see `40-next-content-plan-global`; a paid campaign timeline, see `02-campaign-brief-global`.

Use when a specific campaign needs a brief the whole team can execute from — context, objective, audience, core message, creative direction, channels, deliverables, week-by-week timeline, approval gates, and risks. Trigger on 'campaign brief', 'creative brief', 'launch brief', 'brief the team on this campaign', 'we are running a promo next month', 'what is the plan for this campaign'. Also use when the user describes a promotion out loud and asks for something the team can actually run. Not for — the whole period plan, see `00-marketing-plan-global`; the list of design files needed, see `41-campaign-asset-list-global`; assigning work to one person, see `64-team-brief-global`; a new product launch sequence, see `59-go-to-market-global`.

Use when marketing numbers look bad and the user needs to know WHY — layered root-cause diagnosis across tracking, delivery, creative, landing page, offer, and audience quality, 5-Whys, regional benchmarks for US, EU, SEA, and LATAM, and a 48-hour action plan. Covers dropshipping ROAS and BE-ROAS. Trigger on 'why is CPA so high', 'my ads are not converting', 'ROAS dropped', 'we are burning budget', 'performance is bad this month', 'diagnose the funnel'. Also use when the user pastes a screenshot of numbers with no question attached. Not for — auditing account configuration and scoring health, see `21-ads-audit-global`; writing a report someone else reads, see `07-marketing-report-global`; turning a raw export into insight, see `13-data-analysis-global`.
