1,400th Community Member!

Last week we welcomed our 1,400th community member within our private, paid-for Slack group :)

Remotive started in late 2014, our Slack community was launched in June 2016.
300 members joined as beta-tester before we started charging.

We experienced, and are still experimenting with, different price points to see what makes the most sense.

It's an active, virtual co-working space. Folks ask for advice, share tips and hang out.

"Having a tribe" is essential for remote workers. Having folks to turn to when you have questions, need support or wish to share. We have no interest in becoming huge, quite the opposite, our goal is to be the most supportive community out there!

Our members run an optional pair-group where you are matched with another remote worker. We also run a book-club!

I'm always amazed to meet remote workers or aspiring remote workers and seeing how positive and encouraging the community vibe is :)

Check us out anytime, we'd love to have you with us!

From a business stand-point, 2016-2018 was a good time to create a paid-for Slack Community. My sense is that it's bound to evolve/be supplemented by more permanent knowledge bases/asynchronous platforms :)

AMA if I can help!
