2025-01 Year of Community

[joelr]

Admin Junkies is excited to announce 2025 as The Year of Community! This year, we’re dedicating ourselves to celebrating everything that makes communities extraordinary—new friendships, shared knowledge, and the joy of building something meaningful together.

As community leaders, we know the incredible power of connection. Whether you’re running a forum, managing an online group, or growing your niche network, the work you do is vital. It’s about more than clicks and posts—it’s about creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued.

Throughout the Year of Community, we’ll be rolling out opportunities to inspire, support, and challenge each other to grow. Here’s what you can expect:

🌟 Monthly Themes & Challenges
Each month, we’ll dive into a theme that sparks growth, creativity, and collaboration—like engagement strategies, designing inclusive spaces, or mastering monetization. Join the fun and share your wins with fellow leaders.

🤝 Community Spotlights
Show off your hard work! We’ll feature different communities and their admins who are making a difference. Your story could inspire others.

📚 Resources & Services
From content creation tips to design services, we’ll help you take your community to the next level.

🎉 Events & Giveaways
Network with like-minded leaders through virtual meetups, workshops, and, of course, a few surprises! In recognition of 2025, we are committed to giving away over $2,025 worth of cash prizes, gift boxes, content bundle credits, and other amazing prizes like no other community.

This is your year to shine, connect, and learn. Together, let’s celebrate the impact of strong communities. Stay tuned for updates, and don’t forget to share your journey with us. Let’s make 2025 unforgettable—the year your community grows stronger than ever!

Challenge Question for January
Every year, we all set new resolutions and new goals for the upcoming year. Some of those goals can be lofty and challenging to reach, and we often forget about those goals after a few months. So this year, Admin Junkies wants to put a twist on the standard new year resolutions. Instead of a resolution for the entire year, what is your resolution for the Month of January - in other words, what is one thing you can change, enact, or empower yourself by the end of the month that can have lasting impact for the entire year?

Whether you are reigniting your passion forum from scratch, thinking about how to take your existing forum to the next level, or cashing in on your online hustle, share your best answer.

Think thoughtfully and answer genuinely in a private message to @joelr. Up to the best 3 answers will be eligible for $50 cash prizes and shared with everyone in our next newsletter.

This is a great initiative, hopefully we will become the leader in the industry and be able to bring in community leaders in one place so that learning and sharing from the like minded people becomes easier.

I have been with Admin Junkies since its inception, and I have been on content package team since early on. As a content package team, I have worked on many forums, and based on my experience I can say Admin Junkies has helped a lot of community owners to jump start or even grow their communities.

I am proud to be a part of this wonderful community.
