Company mission
To enable and empower independent communities to thrive.
Our take
Disciple Media was founded to help create a level of community focus, control, freedom, and creativity amongst ambitious individuals. Its platform empowers community managers, business owners, coaches, and influencers to build and own their own private community platforms.
Previously, social networks have been defined by a handful of open, centralised platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram. People capitalised on these networks by building large engaged followings within them. However, as these centralised networks have matured they have become increasingly congested, reach & engagement has fallen and brand vulnerability has risen. Disciple Media sets itself apart through helping businesses/creators build their own single interest networks easily and without any coding skills. Somewhere they can receive value from their community and deepen the relationships with their most valuable customers and fans.
Having worked with clients including The Rolling Stones, dadAF, Luke Bryan, and Sonam Kapoor, Disciple Media is fast expanding and helping spread its passion for learning, communities, and creating great content.
