Discussion Panels

Collaborating and Creating Community 

  • Social media is a community and we are proud to help out. Word is spread through social media, which is why it is important for us to work with the community, - Yves Arispe (@gentlemanyves)

  • Ask yourself: how can we connect the community? How can we make people feel more empowered? How do we touch more than one perspective? - Daniella Turchin (DT Creative Agency)

  • Remember that it’s an even playing field. Anyone in the world can immediately see what you are putting up. - Mike Zig (@coconutcartel)

  • Business owners want people to see creative and engaging content. And that is what makes me want to go somewhere a fellow influencer posts about. - Yulia K. (@happychoicelife)

  • Quantity matters here. If everyone posts enough, people will go visit. - David (@theplasticspoon)
