Community is the cornerstone of empowerment. It’s where connections flourish and transformation takes root.
Deb Schell, a global entrepreneur with over 60 businesses under her guidance, shares invaluable insights on online community building. From discovery to strategy and implementation, she simplifies user and backend experiences. In this enlightening episode, she offers her expert hacks from her book “The Creation to Community Builder”. Communities are a big part of our lives, but often lack intentional engagement. Maintaining relationships can be tough even in private life, and social media are more distractions than help. Online communities are great for building consistency, habits, and support for a business. Do you see yourself as a Community Builder?
