2. Connecting to your online community
and building a tribe!
“Tribe management is a whole different
way of looking at the world.
It starts with permission, the
understanding that the real asset most
organizations can build isn't an
amorphous brand but is in fact the
privilege of delivering anticipated,
personal and relevant messages to
people who want to get them.
It adds to that the fact that what people
really want is the ability to connect to
each other, not to companies. So the
permission is used to build a tribe, to
build people who want to hear from the
company because it helps them
connect, it helps them find each other, it
gives them a story to tell and something
to talk about. “

Bio: I’m your well-placed
fashion source bringing
you behind the scenes
scoop from inside DKNY
and from my life as a PR
girl living in NY.
A person from within who
tweets about the brand
and a life in fashion- a
good way to give insight
and promote the brand
without exposing the
designer herself…
An idea for adding more
followers without
compromising Tory’s
personal space.
