How do you stay accountable to finding and writing content for your newsletter when there aren't external commitments of say a job or revenue?

Hii Toby, I love Morning Brew, As a Webmarketer working in a Startup I need to do a lot including write emailing, do you have any tips on how to get your community to be more engaged? And how do you usually find topics to write about?

SUPER EXCITED about this! 🔥 What are your top community-building strategies for Web3 projects/companies? Engineer founder here trying to understand how to create those INCREDIBLY engaged and genuine communities on Twitter.

@flavius_mardare Web3 community building is the same as any other community building. Please please please stay away from buying followers. Web3 is still such a scammy ecosystem and populating your Discord or Twitter with low-quality followers will crush your project before it even gets off the ground. I’m going to parrot my advice from above and advise you to work on developing a core nucleus of power community members by hosting in-person meetups. Not sure where you are based, but use Twitter to host founder/engineer meetups, meet people that way, and build your community from the ground up. Back in the day, this was how Instagram fostered community hosting meetups called Instameets. People would come and take pics together and get to know each other. Instagram is massive now obviously but it started small and grassroots. I recommend doing the same.

Thanks for the session, this is a very important topic. 🙏 I do more of the technical part, but I would be interested to read this discussion.

Hi Toby, thanks for doing this. I'm currently helping grow a movie NFT project (movieshots.io). The NFT space is full of sketchy figures and it isn't easy to establish a brand without a huge budget and big influencers. Do you have an idea how to grab the attention of the NFT crowd? Thankful for any kind of pointer! :) Have a great day.

I'll be taking notes! Can you talk about emerging platforms and how to decide when/how to jump in? BeReal, Geneva, etc etc... soooo many to keep up with

How do I create content and where do I get content from.

Hi Toby! I'm building a FemTech product to enable sexual wellness for women. A daunting task that needs a lot of care, personal attention, and trust. We're using audio as a medium to enable this. What are your thoughts on audio-first content products? What are some things we should pay attention to?
