What I know after building 79 online communities

Here’s what I know after designing and building 79 online communities in the past 6 years alone… Before you pick a platform, price your offer, or map out your curriculum, there’s one thing you need to do first: have 10 real conversations with potential members. In this episode of Dear Bri, I break down what’s really driving the rise of communities, how to validate your idea before you build anything, and the 3-part framework I use to determine whether a community is right for your business (read: will succeed long-term). If you’ve been feeling pulled toward community but unsure if it’s the right move, this episode will give you clarity. And if you’re asking questions like: Should I start a community for my business? Will people pay to be a part of a community? Or, is it too late to launch a community? Then this episode is for you. *⏳ Timestamps* 00:00:00 | Introduction to season 3: Community strategy 00:01:11 | The right time to build a community 00:04:46 | Is a community right for your business? 00:05:15 | The one question NOT to ask 00:08:15 | Real examples of community strategy in action 00:10:57 | How to find your sweet spot [Framework] *📌 Resources Mentioned* Tapestry Community Case Study: https://www.emberconsulting.co/post/c...
