Hey CC'ians,
We’re so excited to bring you The CC #24 Meetup on the topic of How to Grow a New Community with Brett Roberts.
The purpose of this meetup is to dive into what it’s like to build a community from the ground up. What should you focus on in the beginning? Who do you need around you to make this happen? What steps should you prioritise first? These are all the questions we’ll dive into and more.
You'll learn about:
- How Brett launched a new community from scratch
- How to understand what to focus on and prioritise
- Key strategies to ensure you’re building a valuable community from day 1
Meet your speaker: Brett Roberts, Business Innovation Advisor @ Callaghan Innovation, Managing Director @ Business IQ, Ex-Community Director @ kiwiSaas Community
