What are you doing to build and lead your online community? How do you nurture your audience and sustain positive engagement without coming off salesy? I have been asked these questions by others looking to build a thriving Facebook community. They are interested in finding out how I have grown my group and kept it relevant month after month. They wonder how I come up with content that keeps the community engaged. My biggest secret….. Showing up as myself. I nurture these relationships just like I would if I were meeting someone in real life, face to face.
