Episode notes
Relationships Predict Community Success
- The single strongest predictor of community success is how many relationships form between members.
- Content volume or exclusive access matters far less than member-to-member connections.
Design Around A Shared Transition
- Build a community around members navigating the same transition rather than an audience model.
- Introduce members to each other and give them things to apply so they return and share results.
Avoid The Creator-Centric Trap
- Stop making the community about you and avoid offering constant exclusive time or coaching.
- Instead, structure the space so members find and help each other to scale value without burning you out.
