Do you want to grow a community of raving fans? It’s not that hard to do, if you start right now. This, according to Pat Flynn on this encore release of this December 2020 conversation with him.

Your community can support you in many different ways. They are your hope and support and can even become your raving fans. They can help you fight the internet trolls and help you to focus on growing your business in an authentic way. It’s important to give as much as you can to your community, but just as important to ask what they need and want too. Sometimes you’ll get back things in return without even asking. But as long as you are giving you will receive. 

Pat also shares about how to build that community with purpose and while your mission evolves over time. Because your business will evolve and change and so will your goals around it.

This conversation is as relevant today as it was in December 2020 and it’s one of those rare interviews where I was pretty speechless!
