Social App Profile

A Brief Guide to Clubhouse

Clubhouse is absolutely where creators go to talk. Within Clubhouse you will find an impressively substantial set of groups and events for professionals provided by the chat app. Here are a few suggestions to navigate quickly.

After launching last March, Clubhouse instantly became the go to social app for business professionals, who host audio-only, frequent, live conversations, referred to as “rooms.” Several discuss a variety of topics of interest to groups of subscribers called “clubs.” Company founders and leaders quickly supported the app, thus creating a list of practical informative events and locations to enhance storytelling skills, empathize about business life, and trade best practices.

It is recommended to begin by asking close friends, followed by making requests on social media. Below are three types of clubs and rooms worth your time. To locate events within the app, search for an applicable speaker or by a club’s name.

The famous, or notorious

Access to well-known business leaders is “genuinely surprising,” says Ravi Rajcoomar, Vice President of the Business Network at PeopleForBikes. “It can be like siting on stage while an episode of Shark Tank is being filmed.” If you are a regular on the Clubhouse app, inevitably you have witnessed a celebrity entrepreneur connect with and interact directly with other users.

One of the best pieces of advice we have heard from one of these celebrity entrepreneur sessions, given to company founders, when they recognize burn out within themselves: Jot down the tasks you love and hate about managing your operation, and delegate the latter.
