Communities provide a dedicated space for your audience to connect, share ideas, and engage with your brand outside of traditional social media platforms, giving you complete ownership of your audience.
1. Setting Up a Community Group
Navigate to Memberships > Communities to create a new group. You can set the group to be Public (open to anyone), Private (invite-only), or Paid (requiring a subscription).
2. Engaging Your Audience
Once your community is live, you can foster engagement through:
- Discussion Channels: Create specific channels for different topics to keep conversations organized.
- Announcements: Pin important posts to the top of the feed to ensure all members see critical updates.
- Direct Messaging: Allow members to network and communicate with each other privately.

Pro-Tip
Link a Community Group to a specific Course. This provides students with a dedicated space to ask questions about the curriculum and network with their peers, drastically increasing the perceived value of your course.
