#9 Building Community In Business

Hey folks, I am back on the podcast after my little holiday break! Building community is my main focus for 2019 and I just moved all my programs over to Mighty Networks, so it made total sense to kick things off with a ramble on these things. If you also feel you want to build more community and connection around your business this episode is for you!  Listen to learn about: How my understand of community in business has changed over the years and why it takes time to unlearn competitionWhat tools and software I am using to facilitate online communities Why I think Patreon is a great way to build a mutually supportive network What services and programs I am offering in 2019Here is the tech and strategy support I mentioned for those who need some help setting themselves up for an amazing year: yarrowdigital.com/online-marketing/ :: About me and the DIY Small Business podcast :: I am a web designer, small business mentor and tech fairy who helps people start and run small businesses that are fun to work in and make enough money for things that matter. The DIY Business Podcast is supporting people in creating regenerative, sustainable and feminist businesses that redefine success and center community through interviews with like minded folk, how to guides and exploratory shares. I am not on social media anymore because I want to focus on creating indy media like my podcasts, compare myself less and spent little time on my phone. This means I have more energy to nurture my communities and make cool things for you!
