When building a community that is something that you’re charging, understanding what you can give to people that are helping you is really important. Sometimes we have the capitol at the beginning stages of building something new and sometimes we don’t.

Gina believes that feedback is a gift, but not all feedback is valuable. It’s up to you to make that distinction. Being open to receiving feedback is a lot easier when you know where you want to go and you’re able to take time to workshop what’s working and what’s not.

The biggest challenge with a newsletter and an audience based business is that you are missing out on connecting people within your community and making your life easier. While an email newsletter seems easier, you’re still creating a lot of work. As more and more people create newsletters, people don’t have the time to read them and it makes it harder to stand out. Retention and scale is really hard when all you’re solely creating is content. Creating People Magic through community is scalable.

When we do something alone it feels so much more stressful. It’s easier to get overwhelmed or feel like a victim of circumstance. That’s why a co host could be a great 50/50 partnership or it might look a little different... In today’s episode Gina reframes how we delegate and approach building relationships and communities. Look, we are all more distracted than ever which makes meeting people even more challenging. In addition to having a co host, we can rely more on software, and yes, AI, to help bring people together.

Content seems to be king right now but in order to build for the future you want to focus on relationships. We are told to create more and more content but it’s more beneficial to create the least amount of content so you can focus your time on building relationships with other people. The minimal amount of content you build every week opens up your time to create connections that can change your trajectory and theirs. Organize a dinner, go to a conference. Your content can still be a part of what you make but make sure it’s in service of facilitating what’s really important, your relationships.

You don’t need one thousand members to make your community highly profitable and highly valuable for its members. Your people and your people's people are enough to start. You want your founding members to also be highly motivated to be in your community. If you feel like you have to convince someone to join, they probably aren’t your ideal member, let alone your founding member. The pitch is: we’re going to build something amazing together, so that we can create our best year ever.

Everyone gets burnt out but understanding when you’re feeling depleted and need to take a break is so important.

Knowing who you are serving is the first step towards growing your business. If you’re not clear about who your audience is, you can get clear by finding the people who need your community the most right now and who you’re the most excited to bring together. Being profitable within the first week of launching is possible but you should not make a huge investment if you do not have clarity around who you’re serving and why.
