The team at Steadfast Collective have always been dedicated, approachable and fully committed to our project. I would not hesitate to recommend them to any organisation; they have been amazing!

We believe that people thrive when gathered in community; that generative places, spaces and platforms are where communities grow.

Thriving communities empower connection and growth, creating lasting positive impacts for individuals and brands alike.

Our bespoke community platforms are the technological accelerator you need for your community to thrive.

We design and build community platforms for some of the UK’s leading brands.

Why build a bespoke community platform?

Building a strong online community is vital for organisations and businesses looking to thrive. 

Behind many great organisations, you’ll find a community of loyal customers/members cheering the team on. 

Building community creates a sense of belonging, a connection beyond the transactional.

We’ve worked alongside organisations to help them build their bespoke digital community platform for many years.

What is a bespoke community platform?

A bespoke community platform is a custom-built digital platform specifically designed to meet the needs of a particular group or community rather than an off-the-shelf platform such as Mighty Networks, Circle, or Tribe.

In our experience, while these off-the-shelf platforms are fantastic for a particular set of features, the ability to customise and adapt is often limiting.

Why build a bespoke community platform?

Building a bespoke platform offers significant benefits, primarily through customisation, user experience, design, functionality, and ownership. Customisation allows you to control every aspect of the platform, tailoring it to the unique needs of your community.

Owning a bespoke platform also means having complete control over the data collected, ensuring privacy and security for your users.

As your community's needs evolve, you can easily add new features, tools, and integrations with other systems, such as email marketing software or CRMs.

Digital Community Leaders Report

We created the Digital Community Leaders Report to be a data-backed handbook for building the foundations of your brand's community.

70% of communities we surveyed saw growth over the last 12 months, and we know those businesses are growing, too.

Other metrics we explore include Community Growth, the Biggest pain points, Community Purpose, what other community managers are measuring, Funding, Participation, and C-suite involvement.
