    Choose Community Over Clicks | Katie Brinkley
    Nov 5 2024

    The Social Shift | BrandStack Podcast - 006

    Why is social media strategist Katie Brinkley shifting focus to choose community over clicks? We discuss why Katie believes real connections matter more than going viral, her strategies for building community from day one, and how creators can use social media as a tool rather than a destination. Learn more here: https://rossbrand.substack.com/

    In this episode of the BrandStack Podcast with Ross Brand, Katie Brinkley shares insights with Dale L. Roberts and me from her book, "The Social Shift: The Road Back to Community." We explore how focusing on quality over quantity can lead to sustainable growth, the importance of offline connections, and Katie’s “four-post strategy” for maximizing impact on social platforms. If you’re looking to deepen your connections with your audience and build a real community, Katie’s approach offers a fresh perspective on social media.
