Creating Great Content Builds Community

by Tim Elliott on July 10, 2008

There is no formula to building community with social media, it’s all about creating content that educates and entertains your audience. And doing it on a predictable basis. It’s really that simple although there are some other things you can also do to increase your audience.

I was reminded of this point listening to an interview with Gary Vaynerchuk this week posted as a series of clips here and in it’s entirety here. I encourage everyone searching for the social media silver bullet to listen to this as Gary really outlines in detail his “secrets.”

It boils down to working hard and creating value for your audience.

For those pressed for time, listen to this clip. Great stuff.

I can’t take credit for that image. It came from some Microsoft Library. Good one though, eh?

Well, it was on your post so I wanted to credit someone ;-)

If you are at Blogher next week, I’ll be one of the guys pouring Israeli wine at Guy Kawasaki’s house.

Thanks for finding the clip; you’ll see it again here along with the others.
