Community Building
Community building consists in the development of a dedicated following engaged in discourse, both online and in person, around specific topics. This initiative is essential for brands to create a sense of community and connection with their audience.
Studies show that brands which invest in community building see a return on investment with increased engagement, customer loyalty, and user-generated content (UGC), contributing to a 25% increase in conversion rates.
A well-constructed community serves as a platform for dialogue and a rich source of UGC. This content becomes a powerful tool for supporting both marketing efforts and sales.
Furthermore, branded communities have seen a boost in sales and lead generation while making annual cost savings of 10% to 25%, thanks to lowering customer support costs. Therefore, community building’s importance lies in its capacity to drive sales and lead generation through authentic interactions and shared experiences.
