LBC # 102 Early Bird Ending in 4 days, Workshop with Chris Detzel and Events with Valentina Ruffoni

Happy Tuesday, Community Pros!

Are you already in the mood? This seems like a thing for 2025. We feel you! You are not alone regarding how busy 2024 has been for every community builder!

However, we are still running a few activities before the end of this year that can set you up for success in 2025. Join our next event with Valentina Ruffoni and get your events calendar for 2025 ready to go! A promising session pack with unveiled tips from our Events Queen.

Did you know Valentina is the right hand of Francisco for the upcoming Community-led World Summit in 2025? Grab Your Tickets for London or online at the best price before they go up in less than 4 days!

We want to give kudos to our friends at Discourse, who have already committed to sponsoring the conference next year! Thank you, Sara Hawk and Mae Woods!

About our new event series part of our membership: we noticed a few of you are not fully ready to commit to our yearly membership just yet (£21 monthly), so we have now made our private events available to everyone, and you can join them a la carte.

A quick heads up: we’ll be pausing during the last 2 weeks of December to get some rest and improve how we send this newsletter to you with new sections and essential changes. Got ideas? Just reply and let me know!

Stay tuned for what’s next—our events have something for everyone!
