Mastering community building and Google's expertise in deal making
Dear friends,In JC’s Newsletter, I share the articles, documentaries, and books that I enjoyed the most in the last week, with some comments on how we relate to them at Alan. I do not endorse all the articles I share, they are up for debate. I’m doing it because a) I love reading, it is the way that I get most of my ideas, b) I’m already sharing those ideas with my team, and c) I would love to get your perspective on those. If you are not subscribed yet, it's right here! If you like it, please share about it on social networks! 💡Must-read👉 A founder’s guide to the community (Lenny’s Newsletter)
➡️ Can we study how they do it?
➡️ Wow! It should inspire us.
➡️ What can we learn from those? Could we create a forum for company admins accessible in the app?
➡️ People tend to like our culture - we could do that.

➡️ Should we be the default option of some tools? The market is very different, but being there by default without people having to subscribe is really powerful. I don’t know if there is something else than the States where it applies to us.
➡️ Daring to think about the future, and how to connect it with today, is the most important skill of innovation in my opinion. 👉 Solana Summer (NotBoring) ➡️ Inspire ourselves from Crypto Hackathons that have been good at gathering ideas (not saying we should do crypto!). Would you like an Alan public hackathon? 👉 Send your staff on a tour of duty (Sifted)
➡️ I found the idea very interesting. 🗞 In the news📱Technology👉 Communities of the Future (Medium)
➡️ Interesting list of tools to build communities. 👉 Ali Hamed - Amazon Aggregators: Buying Third-Party Sellers (Join Colossus)

➡️ With Alan, we have built a very different path where we improve unit economics year on year towards profitability. It’s already over! Please share JC’s Newsletter with your friends, and subscribe👇 Let’s talk about this together on LinkedIn or on Twitter. Have a good week!
