Hey, Community!
I recently sent an email to a Strava “Community Specialist” who had helped us in the past, but I got a bounce back email… so, I came here to pose the questions! Or maybe, there’s a “Community Specialist” out there who can lend some guidance::
I am one of the Admins on the BikePGH Strava Club and I wanted to reach out with some questions as we prep for our 2026 events season.
BikePGH (Bike Pittsburgh) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and we love using our Strava Club to help get the word out about rides we organize in our area.
Earlier this year, we wanted to set up Challenges, but quickly realized they are way out of our price range. We would love to promote our rides and attract new audiences to our Club, and we have a small marketing budget to do so, but it is nowhere near what the Strava Business managers have quoted us previously. We also recently go our Club "Verified" over the summer.
We would love your help identifying any areas for improving our reach, with or without our small budget! We also attended a Strava webinar a few months ago and that was informative, but I am not sure we came away with the answer to this particular query...
