Dave Goodfellow spends 1-2 hours daily on Clubhouse and expects slower growth once Android launches. He's already made real business connections on the app, which was still Apple-only at the time of this conversation.

Welcome everybody to the audio version of the Boostly podcast. So today I am going into the vault and I am finding some of the best clips from a 24 hour clubhouse room that we ran this year. It was an, it was an amazing experience to be part of, to host it, to admin it, and to grab friends and peers from the industry into one room on the the leading audio app and help hosts all over the world. We had a lot of fun. We touched every single corner of the globe and what I wanted to do is be able to put it together, find the best bits and put it into the daily Boost podcast. So I hope you enjoy. The section is not going more than 10 minutes, but it's going to feature a part of the 24 hour room that resonated the most with me. So thank you for tuning in and I will be back tomorrow with another pod podcast episode. Right now though, let's jump into that Clubhouse room. Now. We've had Clubhouse in our lives for about nearly five, six months now. I've been on here since the start of December 2020 and people have come in after that. Now seeing that we're four or five months in and Dave will go to you first, you use it quite a lot. How do you see clubhouse in your day to day life in six months time? So by the end of 2021, where do you see clubhouse? Is it going to be as important or is it just going to be like a Snapchat, like a flash in the pan, like where do you see clubhouse going? And, and do you feel like it's, it's going to be as beneficial? Are you still enjoying it as much? Like what's your opinion on this app, on this channel that we are talking on right now?
What a fantastic question mark. So, yeah, thanks for coming to me first. I do use it a lot. So I'm on, I'm on Clubhouse good to two or two hours a day probably most days. And I do use it now. Where do I see it going in six months time? So what a great question. So at the moment we've got people are still kind of in lockdown, they're not out and about and doing everything. Oh, I suppose that's kind of come back a little bit now, but. And there's still people using this fantastic app day in, day out. It's a great place to bring people together. You can do it in your underpants, you can do it with your hair all over the place, you can do it naked, you can do whatever you want because nobody can See what you're doing, right. So it makes it so accessible for so many people. Now if we have a look at the stats, there's around in the uk, not sure about what this, not sure what this is across the world, but in the UK we've got around 33% of the population using Apple products or Apple phones and it's only available to Apples. Now. You can't, I think there's a, there's Android, hasn't really opened up to Android yet. So there's a huge market there for people to be jumping on this once it's open up to Android and that will happen. So there's a good 60, whatever it is, percent of them of the population that are not on Apple that are going to be opened up to Clubhouse in the near future. So I think it's just going to grow and grow. I think the great thing about Clubhouse is that you can jump onto a panel, you can speak to people that are a million light years ahead of where you are right now and you can jump up and ask them a question and get that question answered. So for me, I think that Clubhouse will continue to grow. I think the rate that it's growing will slow down, but I think it's got so much potential for the future. I mean, look at it, look at everybody on this panel this morning. We're all networking together, we're sharing ideas, we're, you know, answering questions for each other. We're doing so much on this panel, you know, and there's, there's so many relationships being built in the background. I mean, I've never done so much business since I jumped onto clubhouse 100 and I think it's about 115 days ago now. We never done so much business and the opportunities and the wealth of knowledge and the things I'm learning on a day to day basis are just huge for me. So if people want to continue learning and developing and gaining that knowledge and the confidence to do things, then I think it's just a great platform. That was a bit deep, but there you go.
