Have you built a community within your product?
A community feature is one of the most requested feature for my product currently, however, I'm unsure whether I want to build a community through chat channels like Slack or build it within the product. What are your thoughts and consideration here?
Slack is definitely not right for everyone, but it's hard to advise without more info.
What is your product? What do your users actually want to do/achieve?
+1 to this... what are the outcomes you’re looking to see or have your members experience? what are they asking for specifically?
Thanks for the response, the product is what we believe is the next iteration of entrepreneurial education. Think accelerators and incubators with a global audience. So therefore, community is one of the key pillars of of success. We see in some ways this is something we need to build because it's a core part of the company. However, there's a lot of friction in building the community within the product vs. slack.
... but, you literally didn't answer my question... lol.
i love the passion!
Haha sorry! We want people to have the same quality experience of building companies as they would at a reputable accelerator or incubator, but not physically.
... so, "quality experience"... okay.
