latam community recap
with taylor desseyn (solo)
- show up in person at engineering conferences instead of only staffing events if you want to actually meet talent face to face
- free or low cost conferences tend to draw bigger and more engaged crowds than pricier ones
- small thoughtful swag or gestures can mean a lot to people, so don't underestimate the impact of showing up prepared
- consistent email and newsletter outreach compounds over time and helps grow an engaged community
- booking private dinners around conferences is a simple way to build deeper connections with your community
