Passionate Wix Pros Take Local To a Global Level Through
Worldwide Workshops and Events
NEW YORK, May 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Wix.com Ltd.
(Nasdaq: WIX) began recruiting for Wix on the Road in Q1 2017,
which is now powered by more than 80 Wix Ambassadors around the
world. These global community leaders are empowering Wix users in
22 countries and ten languages through workshops, events and
professional tips, tutorials and support.
"Wix was designed to empower anyone to create an online
presence. Engaging with our users offline is also key to our
community development," said Ashley Gallman
Williams, Global Head of Community Outreach at Wix. "Our
Ambassadors allow us to work with our users on a local level at a
global scale. From LA to Kyoto,
Wix users can meet in person and connect with a leader in their
community and culture, speaking their language."
"With over 100 million Wix users around the world, we wanted to
establish a program for the best of the best to assist our current
and potential customers, and to bring our community together. We
are overwhelmed that more than 80 Ambassadors were already on board
before we officially launched the program. This is a testament to
our community's desire to grow and give back."
The Wix Ambassador Program started as a pilot in December of
2016. Since the start of the year, ambassadors around the world
have met thousands of Wix users and hosted over 100 events. Wix
Ambassadors can be found on every continent and have partnered with
local technology, coworking and small business organizations to
expand their reach.
"Wix Ambassadors are the mentors in their community. When we
started to develop the program we were thrilled with the quality of
applicants," said Shira Galler, Head
of the Wix Ambassador Program. "Beyond their qualifications, their
passion for building community and teaching Wix shined through in
their interviews."
To become a Wix Ambassador, a Wix user should first become a Wix
Certified Trainer. From there, applicants are vetted through an
application process that selects the most passionate Wix users.
Once selected, Ambassadors become the Wix leader in their area,
armed with all of the materials they need to organize and run a Wix
workshop or event for Wix users and newcomers. Every Ambassador
hosts monthly workshops and quarterly user meetups. Topics can
include web design trends, SEO, photo techniques and more.
