The Psychological Appeal of Clubhouse
Clubhouse feels like a cross between WhatsApp and LinkedIn or a fluid and participatory podcast. With Clubhouse you can move from room to room, listen or speak and find people with like interests, but you canāt see or text.
There are a lot of professional reasons for joining Clubhouse, especially if youāve something to sell. Still, Clubhouseās popularity is fueled as much by innate human drives as economics or lofty intellectualism.

- Exclusivity. Itās much safer to be āinā than āout.ā Exclusivity not only drives interest and desire; once you are āin,ā you can relish in the sense of superiority it confers.
- Illusions of authority. Each room (conversation) has moderators. They are on the āstage,ā which triggers metaphors of performance, giving those on the stage an aura of authority.

Considerations for Brands On Clubhouse
Clubhouse may not be the friendliest place for brands, particularly those with the hard-sell model.Ā
The halo effect is very real when brands back the wrong horse. Negativity sticks to the brands a lot longer than it does to an Influencer who made a mess in the first place.Ā
Other types of social media are curated and edited. Clubhouse is live. Just because itās not recorded doesnāt mean things heard there wonāt spread, especially given the structural links with Twitter and Instagram.
