Uses of groups in Clubhouse

Groups are a great way of building and moderating your own community within Clubhouse. Once you have created a group, you can host public and private rooms on different topics within your groups. This allows for numerous possibilities and uses, the most popular of which have been mentioned below. 

Create a Family/Friends group

Using a Clubhouse group, you and your family members can connect whenever you like. Not only this, moms and aunts can have their own private rooms and so can the kids. The founder can easily manage and moderate these rooms on the fly creating the perfect closed virtual environment for you and your family members to connect remotely. 

Create an interest-based group

You can create a group for a specific niche or topic where like-minded individuals can converse with each other. You can then host multiple private or public rooms catering to different users like beginners or pros on certain topics.

You can even assign member roles to active members that fit the bill so that they can host their own specific rooms for conversations on certain aspects of the niche chosen by you. 

The possibilities with Clubhouse groups are endless, and if you are looking to create your own virtual community, then this might be the next best option for you.
