Community Week: Driving community engagment

Today is the fourth episode of our deep dive into one of the most important yet overlooked channels of marketing: community. Each day this week we're publishing an episode that discusses what you need to know to build, grow, and engage a community centered around your brand. Joining us is Rachel Makool, Senior Community Manager at GoDaddy. So far this week, Rachel and I have talked about the value of community, the infrastructure that brands need to get their community started, and how to build a community from the ground up. Today we discuss how to drive community engagement.
