Community manager vs social media manager: who does what?
A community manager focuses on relationships and conversations. A social media manager handles the broader presence and content plan. The roles can overlap, so agree on specific tasks within your team.

01 / The work in context
A social media coordinator or specialist may handle several functions. The table proposes an allocation for a brand, with a third column showing where our AI operator fits.
When a conversation appears
Define who reviews the context and what information the brand can contribute. AI Community Manager finds relevant posts and prepares participation under your rules. Customer inquiries need an owner on the team.
When reviewing results
Distinguish completed work from its commercial effect. An approved draft records a participation decision; a sale needs its own tracking. Agree on which records to review and who decides on changes.
