I'm seeing a lot of community owners use short-form content to attract members, but is it working for your community? If you're using Instagram: • What's your follower count? • How many members has it brought into your community? • What's working best right now (Reels, Stories, Carousels, DMs, etc.)? • What's been the biggest challenge? Curious to hear real numbers and experiences from community owners who are actively using Instagram as a growth channel.

If you disappeared from your community for 30 days, what would happen❓ A) Nothing changes B) A few members keep it alive C) It runs completely fine without you Curious how people think about this. Drop in the comment if something else is gonna happen 📄

Many community owners get stuck scripting and recording courses, only to spend weeks creating content nobody asked for. In many cases, they disappear to build courses, which can also hurt community engagement and growth. A simpler approach is to create a Google Doc and a short 5–10 slide presentation for each topic, then teach it live to your existing members and record the session with Loom. This also helps you to build the course with your members instead of guessing what they want. It keeps the content relevant, provides real-time feedback, and helps you validate demand before investing more time. End each session with a Q&A, the questions and discussions often become the most valuable part of the course.
