How do I ensure the community manager understands my project's needs?

Clearly explain your project goals and who your audience is. Share any brand guidelines or tone of voice you use. Ask the manager to repeat back their understanding to make sure they grasp the project well.

What are the key deliverables to discuss before starting?

How do I set expectations for communication with a freelance community manager?

Decide on how often you want updates, like daily or weekly check-ins. Choose a platform for communication, like email or a chat app. Make sure both you and the manager feel comfortable with the frequency and method.
