Overheard on Podcasting, Seriously Live 
|

This week we welcome Ana Flores, Founder and CEO, and Vanessa Santos, Partner and Co-CEO of #WeAllGrow Latina, the largest and most established community of Latinas online, for a discuss on building a strong engaged community. Some takeaways are:
- You should survey your audience and think of them as collaborators to understand who they are, what they value, and what content is relevant to them.
- As you begin to foster your community, start with a purpose in mind and stay true to your mission. "The purpose of the original vision that you have is what's going to take you through as you continue to evolve...every community starts with a deep purpose, and it will be continuously driven by it," Ana notes.
- It's important to be intentional and build with patience in order to reach the right people. "We're very clear and intentional on how we approach and how we communicate in our tone of voice through each platform. It is very inclusive, it is very safe, it is very diverse," Vanessa says.
- Focus on your target audience and bringing like-minded people together who find value in your content, instead if trying to appeal to everyone. "We take a very holistic approach when it comes to our engagement and growing and building a community. We know that we are not going to be for everyone, nor do we want to be. And that's what creates such an engaged, trusting community. Because they know that they can come to us for joy, for information, for guidance, for support, for belonging," says Vanessa.
