Secrets to Building Powerful Brand Communities: Presented at Digital Summit A...MJ S
Basically, a brand community is a group of people who possess a common interest in a brand.
But a powerful brand community, one that has a powerful impact on the bottom line for your business, has another element: instead of just being a group of people who are interested in a brand, they are a group of people who are also deeply interested in and connected to each other.
