What is Community?

here we will cover, what is community and why is everyone going gaga about it.

As it goes without saying, before getting into how to manage a community we have to first understand, what is the meaning of the word community. (literally! and in the business sense as well!)

A community is a group of people who display shared goals and shared struggles. It provides people with a sense of belonging and a network of like-minded individuals they can connect with based on their shared characteristics.

Now that we have a broad idea of what a community refers to.

Its' time to clear some air about community management in the next chapter, where we decode the term CMGR.
