Wondering how to build community? Start with building an audience!

Twitter avatar for @rrhooverRyan Hoover @rrhoover
Sometimes starting with an audience is easier and a smart first step toward building a community later on. I expect many broadcast platforms (i.e. tools used to communicate with an audience) will vertically integrate community building functionality in the coming months.

Interesting take on how community managers form a bridge between a platform and users 🤔

Twitter avatar for @Sinoppia𝗖𝗛𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗔𝗡𝗔 🥨 @Sinoppia
02| Community Managers are bridges between the platform and its users/community. They represent the platforms position, they advocate the platforms values and each interaction they have with the users reflects the platform's position.

5. Build an audience & build a relationship with them. People love to buy stuff from people itself & not some company. Build a personal brand & try to establish your authority in the niche. Build a genuine connection with your audience.
