An Overview & 17 Questions Answered About Clubhouse

By

Here is an overview about Clubhouse, a phone app that is taking social media by storm. There are also 17 questions answered about Clubhouse to get started.

On Clubhouse, a user can drop into a virtual club to listen or join in on a conversation about a topic of their choice. The conversations are live, and users can also tweet during the conversation using #hashtags to join in on the conversation.

It is a great way to engage with like-minded people that share your interests, hobbies, or as a recruiter for job opportunities, and a whole lot more.

Because there are many rooms available on any given topic, you can drop into one room at a time that best fits your niche and join in on the conversation.

It’s a great way to learn and meet new people! Also, it can be used for entertainment or even education purposes too.

Many rooms are hosted by folks who have outside knowledge on specific topics that they will use to educate whoever is interested or participating. It’s interactive and fun with lots of personalities from different walks of life. Below are some basic questions and answers to learn more.

Why should you join Clubhouse?

If you provide products online or can offer your services remotely, you might get new clients. If you are an artist that shares your craft auditorily, like music or beatboxing or poetry, you have a chance to showcase your skills. If you want to learn, debate, ask questions, engage in storytelling, or have spur-of-the-moment conversations, then dive in to build your business, authority, connections, or knowledge.

What club am I part of?

Although I am a member of several clubs, which you can see at the bottom of my profile, I run my Job Seeker Power Hour Club on the Thought Leadership Branding Club (website built by Bucks County web developer Pig Art Graphics). Please feel free to use Lynne Williams as the referral if you want to run your own club in the #TLBClub.
