Discord, Slack, or Circle? Choosing an Online Community Platform for Your Brand

by Valerie Blomberg | at Minnebar 19

If your brand community lacks a cohesive gathering space online, you're not alone! Community builders and social media managers are stretched thin across multiple social platforms and in-person events. They dream of an all-in-one place where their community can gather—away from the noisy, ad-dominated environment of social media. But how do you decide which platform is right for you, given the many options available?

In this interactive session, Valerie Blomberg will break down the pros and cons of Discord, Slack, and Circle.so as community platforms—and why Reddit and Substack don’t quite fit the bill.

You'll walk away with:
✅ A clear decision-making framework
✅ Confidence in choosing the best platform for your needs
✅ A deeper understanding of how different platforms shape community dynamics

It’s time to stop letting the choice of platform get in the way of launching your brand’s online community. Join us for a practical, hands-on training and get the answers you need to build the right home for your community.

A community exists in need of your business solution. But what if your community hasn't been activated yet?

Hi, it's nice to meet you. I build online communities for businesses and Kickstarters raising $1mil+.

The power of community to drive business goals inspires me every day, and I've curated a team of educators, marketing strategists, writers, and facilitators to bring excellence to the sphere of online chat-based community management.

If an activated community is part of your business goals, let's chat. My mission is to offer companies a viable alternative to paid ad channels. An activated community is a customer referral engine, and I believe in the power of this method for you and your business.
