How do you build and maintain a strong community around your product?

by•

Building and keeping a strong community around my product has been tough because it needs constant interaction. That's why I'm interested in hearing how others have managed to do it.

Use social media to keep constant updates, and engage with the community regularly on Discord

@kehui_guo Thanks! do you also use newsletters?

@yotta_buzz Currently nope, we’re using the discord channel to post updates in our community. However, we do have newsletters in our roadmap for the future.

Building and maintaining a strong community around your product requires consistent engagement and genuine interaction with your users. By actively listening to feedback and fostering a sense of belonging, you can create a loyal and supportive community.

We host regular Zoom calls and have a newsletter where we share high value content and free upcoming workshops. We love our community and they contributed over $130k to an Indiegogo crowdfunder that we ran a couple years ago (https://sutra.co/crowdfunder). We don't really do much social media. Mostly just live calls.

I host live streams and webinars to interact with the community in real-time and answer their questions.

@debra_hetrick What tools are you using to share your live streams and webinars? Youtube?

Keep regular updates, throw yourself into active interactions with all your supporters, and collect feedback with caution.

Building and nurturing a thriving community is like cultivating a digital garden - it requires consistent care, patience, and the occasional virtual watering can. So, what's your secret fertilizer for community engagement?

Community building is definitely a challenge! A few things that have worked for me: 1) Actively engage with users on social media, forums, etc. to build relationships 2) Provide great support to turn customers into advocates 3) Create content (blog posts, videos, etc) to keep people engaged 4) Run contests, giveaways, and other fun promos to generate buzz 5) Partner with influencers/affiliates to expand reach. Consistency is key - it takes sustained effort but the payoff in loyalty and word-of-mouth is huge. Would love to hear what's worked for others too!
