Let's get into the show:
-The Power of Joining or Starting Podcaster and Listening Communities
Spreaker has published a terrific blog post about this topic at Blog.Spreaker.com
The two platforms that dominate for building these communities are Meetup and Facebook or mix of both, but Google Groups does still exist but is a little old school
The one exception is “Telegram” a platform that has gained traction in Spanish speaking countries.
Generally Meetup excelled in event discovery by attendees, but Facebook was more appropriate for group discussion. Totally makes sense to me.
Seems like the power is to use both Meetup and Facebook Groups
Organizers discussed in the blog post generally feel like Meetup is great for RSVPs but those people aren’t as likely to show up. Those that find out about events on Facebook do tend to show up more. Meetup attendees are notoriously flakey”. I agree, I have run Podcaster Meetups in Seattle for Years.
Attendance will vary a lot based on month of the year, venue and purpose of the event
Communities attract all levels of podcaster
Being an Event Organizer can have many professional benefits - building your leadership brand can help your podcast grow too.
On the listener community side, I would recommend to create just a Facebook group for your listeners to engage with each other and ge listener feedback on topics and building intra-listener relationships.
