@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialWhat would you get off your mind if you could talk to your tools?
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialWhat's the one question you keep answering?
Turn it into a guide, screen recording or community resource people can find again.
Start with one useful answer.
What question would you tackle first?
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialBehind the scenes, getting ready to record my Paymentform.io tutorial 🎥
Teleprompter loaded. Demo guidance ready. Turning tech into something people understand and can use.
Take two. Even the digital dude gets a second take 😂
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialYou spent three hours creating that post.
48 hours later, almost nobody will see it again. 😬
Your best ideas deserve a longer shelf life.
Turn useful posts, answers and conversations into resources, courses or a knowledge area you actually own.
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialDesk ready for a live community session with Helen Tebay, The Sales Lady. ☕💻
Miles apart, learning together. Asking questions, sharing ideas and helping each other move forward.
True community learning at its best.
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialIf your Facebook group disappeared tomorrow, how would you contact your members?
Give people another way to stay connected, such as an email list they choose to join.
Can your community find you somewhere else?
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialYou could spend years building an online community you don't actually own. 😬
Use the platform. Enjoy the technology. But know who owns the member data, whether you can export it, and whether you can contact your people elsewhere.
Own the relationship.
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialI used to spend hours adding zooms to screen tutorials. Skreno suggested 21 zooms in this demo, ready to add together.
What takes you longest when creating videos?
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialYour community idea probably isn't the problem.
You're trying to build too much of the damn thing. 😬
Start smaller. Get real people in. Watch what they do. Listen to what they ask for.
Then build more of what they actually need.
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialStop choosing the platform first. 😬
Before building an online community, ask why anybody would come back.
What are they coming for? Who do they want to meet? What problem are you solving?
Work that out first. Then choose the tech.
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialNobody wants to pay £29 a month just for access to your community platform. 😬
People pay for answers, support, expertise and connection. The platform is just where that happens.
What will be different for someone because they're part of yours?
@helpwithdigital.bsky.socialPeople follow your business but aren't ready to buy yet.
Where do they go? 🤔
A community gives them somewhere to ask questions, learn and get to know you before becoming a client.
Have you filled that gap in your customer journey?
