Question, is "content" a good tool to find the small group of believers? A tool to filter the right people.

Big fans of newsletter or podcast.. Maybe this is the small group of people you can start with

I guess that if you wanna create a new community of community professionals you would start with your newsletter readers, right?

Good question.

If you already have an audience then yes, you can filter that audience to identify a core group of believer for the community you’re launching.

But if you don’t already have an audience, I wouldn’t start with content. It will take a really long time. Maybe you can write a few pieces of content that will help you convince the believers to join you. But I think you need to go direct to the believers.
