Hey everyone! I'm Rosie Sherry and I love building communities. I started about 15 years ago with meetups, I then started Ministry of Testing and boostrapped that to $1.5M annual revenue over 10 years. I still (co)own, but don't run the business day to day. I led the community over at Indie Hackers for a couple of years. More recently I started Rosieland, a community for community builders. This has evolved over the past couple of years, from a newsletter, to a paid newsletter and now to a community with a 'community garden' approach. Rosieland is still my side-gig as I recently joined Orbit to lead up their community efforts. AMA!

Keep up the great work, Rosie. When I think about community building, your name come first to me.

Hi Rosie, thanks for taking the time. I am working on a platform to help people get career help easily. I want it to be community-driven, but there will be a fair bit of technology involved. So I've been thinking about monetizing it from the get-go, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how I will get people to pay for the membership. I want to build a strong sense of codependence where everyone benefits from connections and tools. Have you encountered any successful community-driven platforms that started with a paid membership? What are your thoughts on this approach? For more context here is a feature idea - https://www.producthunt.com/disc...

Growing cannabis plants begins with Free cannabis seeds the seeds of the plant. The genetic makeup of the plant, including its size, shape, colour, and potency, is contained in these seeds.

How do you build a community for a new product in the early days?
