Marques Brownlee

Meet Marques Brownlee! As a tech content creator with over 16M subscribers, Marques is beloved for his honest and high-quality reviews. While he has been making videos for over 12 years, he brought his community to Discord in 2022. Now, over 82,000 members enjoy the MKBHD server as a space to connect over tech, media and everything in between.

For Marques, there is value in opening up the door for two-way communication with his fans. In fact, he uses his server as a space to collect and listen to the feedback directly.

“I’m listening to people all the time [on Discord]. It helps me feel more connected with them, it helps them feel more a part of the process of what we do and what we make, and then at the end of the day the videos get better as a result.”

Making Space for Connection

In the MKBHD server, there are dedicated channels to discuss topics that align with the content Marques’ community knows and loves. Smartphone enthusiast? There’s a channel for that! Big time gamer? There’s a channel for that!

By creating spaces to chat with one another about their shared interests, fans are able to connect in-between MKBHD content drops and even make friends along the way.

Creating a new experience with Server Subscriptions

Through Server Subscriptions, Marques is able to give his community exclusive access within his server for just $2.99 a month. Not only do subscribers get their very own premium channel, but a “sneak peek behind the curtain of the MKBHD studio.”

As a creator, giving fans new ways to interact with and experience your creativity is a fantastic way to leverage Server Subscriptions! You can find more examples of what you can offer in your Server Subscription here!
