Communities
Communities create leverage by turning attention into relationships -- and relationships into recurring, trusted distribution channels for every product and asset you build.
What This Asset Class Is
Communities are audiences, email lists, membership platforms, forums, and professional networks that have aggregated around a shared interest, identity, or problem. They are relationship infrastructure.
How It Creates Leverage
A community gives you a permanent distribution channel that you own. Unlike social media following that can vanish, an email list or membership community is a durable asset that grows more valuable as it deepens trust.
