Clubhouse, we are again here with a new platform which is shaking the Internet and may be the next big thing again. It is fully audio-based platform which offers its users to debate creating various rooms for them. Currently it is having 10 million active users per week. But it seems to be growing with a great pace.
Earlier Clubhouse App was only available for IOS users but
now it is also available on Android Users too. While signing up Clubhouse App
will ask some details and couple of interests on the basis of which it will
recommend various rooms and people for you. It contains various rooms in which
users can listen and speak on various topics. Users can find many niche-based
rooms and even many socialized rooms in which one can share thoughts.
Many big companies have been seen competing on the same feature
on their App too but seems some less productive. Facebook has been seen to
compete with the App by introducing Live Audio Rooms feature in US and Hotline,
which shows the future can be audio-based platforms. Twitter introduced Spaces
which also resembles the features of Clubhouse App. Reddit has announced Reddit
Talk named service which is also based on audio-based segments. Instagram’s
Rooms is not fully based on audio but it is based on creating various rooms in which
users can enter and share their thoughts.
Clubhouse App offers a bunch of features like on Clubhouse you
can follow people and get followed by users. Also you can maintain your profile
with good bio. User can schedule various discussion on any topic and user also
gets notified about the schedule. User can directly share stuff with other
social media Apps like Twitter etc with one click. User can ping or notify
others to be a part of any real time running discussion. You will find speakers
and listeners in the Rooms and if one want to speak he / she can raise their
hands and speakers will have the authority to allow the user to speak by moving
him / her to speaker category. You can become of various clubs and it will also
be shown on your profile that you are member at following Clubs.

Strategy of Clubhouse for its growth
- Invite Only – Clubhouse only allows users to login after
only an invitation from the existing user. This feature makes the difference
between Clubhouse and other Apps as it creates value that only few can be a part
of the platform. Any user can invite only 5 people on Clubhouse, this is one of
the way to create greed for the platform in the market.
- Audio based Platform – It is one of the best audio based
platform, there are many other companies entering in this niche but those
companies are already based on other segment stuff like Facebook, Twitter,
Reddit etc,. So competing in this segment will not be easy for them and
Clubhouse which is totally based on audio based segment is currently winning the
race.
- Privacy – Clubhouse is very much focused on its user privacy
too as according to Clubhouse guidelines user cannot record or share the
speeches or audio running in Rooms and Clubs. It provides a belief of encryption
to its users. But from some experts you will hear that this feature is one of
the negative aspect of the platform as it becomes difficult to find the culprit
of harassment of bullying on the platform. There were many cases found of bullying
on the App due to which some of the countries have banned it.
- Connecting the World – This is also one of an aspect
which resulted in the popularity of the App. On Clubhouse App user can connect,
hear and speak with anyone in the world available on the platform. User can participate
in any debate and rooms around the world, that means, one can debate on WHO’s
policies sitting at USA, UK, India and anywhere else. As a audio platform, it can
be the next advancement in connecting people around the world.
- No Delete option – One of the important aspect is also
that the conversations are live and user cannot delete them like on Twitter one
can delete any Tweet after some time. So on Clubhouse once what is spoken will
be real time and cannot be edited on deleted.
- Popular Celebrities and Influencers Engagement – The biggest reason for the growth of Clubhouse App is that it was joined by many big names. Many influencers and Celebrities joined Clubhouse which made people to join it as the audience level is still limited and users can listen to their favourites directly by joining their Rooms and Clubs. Elon Musk is one of the name who made his appearance on Clubhouse and even tweeted about it by which its popularity also increased.
