  • How an aging rock n’ roll band managed to build and maintain a passionate community of fans
  • Converting community members into ambassadors who still make the band $60m per annum in merchandise a decade after they disbanded.
  • Online publishing success stories
  • Lessons we can implement in our own strategies
