When conducting manual background research on a shortlisted online forum to assess discussion trends for a new accounting assistant app, how many recent threads should be read and logged per venue?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| The recommended sampling limit per venue is defined as the 40 most recent threads or the last 14 days, whichever is fewer. | Missed | Passed |

A community, for this skill, is a place where people with the same role or situation talk to each other without being paid to: a forum, a subreddit, a group chat, a trade association, a meetup, the replies under a niche newsletter. Finding the right one settles two things a small business needs early: which group of people it serves, and where it can listen to them and be heard.
The work has four parts. Turn a vague audience into search terms. List candidate venues. Read a sample of each and score all of them on the same five measures. Write a participation plan that fits each venue's rules. The deliverable is community-map.md and the log it was computed from, community-log.csv.
Ask only what the project does not answer:
In the repository, read the README and landing copy, the pricing page, any customer list or CRM export (job titles, company types, the "how did you hear about us" column), support mail and reviews. The words customers use are better search terms than the words on the landing page.
No group chosen yet? Run steps 2 to 5 for up to three groups the founder belongs to and compare the totals. A group where the founder would score 0 on fit is not a candidate, however large it is.
Collect 10 to 20 terms in four buckets before searching. Venues are found by the problem and the tools far more often than by the job title.
| Bucket | What goes in | Physiotherapy clinic example |
|---|---|---|
| Roles | what they call themselves | clinic owner, practice manager, private practice |
| Tools | what they already use | diary system, booking software, card terminal |
| Problem, their words | phrases from mail and reviews | no-shows, DNA rate, late cancellations |
| Neighbours | topics discussed nearby | insurer billing, hiring associates, room rental |
Aim for 8 to 15 candidates across at least four of these types, then sample the most promising five or six.
