Clubhouse is the brand new social media network that’s taking the marketing world by storm.

Seems like every time I log onto other platforms people are either talking about Clubhouse or inviting people to their clubhouse “rooms”.

What’s incredible though is how, at the time of writing, Clubhouse has grown to ~2,000,000 users despite being less than a year old.

With such meteoric growth, we thought Clubhouse’s growth strategy and business was worth a quick analysis.

Here’s what we’ve dug up.
