In this episode, we break down how SoulCycle built a community-powered content engine that keeps fans sharing, and showing up.


Our guest this week is McKinley Hart, Director of Social Media at SoulCycle who shares more around the brand’s social and community storytelling, how they turn riders, instructors, and studio culture into a constant flow of authentic content and brand advocacy.


We dig into the strategies, systems, and mindset that any brand, marketer, or creator can steal, even if you don’t have SoulCycle’s scale or resources.


In this episode, we cover:

  • How SoulCycle turned its community into a content engine (without making people feel “used”)

  • The creative strategies used at SoulCycle to maxmise brand advocacy on social

  • Turning instructors and front-line teams into on-the-ground storytellers

  • Building internal infrastructures that benefit the content loop

  • The difference between “posting about your brand” and “building your brand”

  • How to measure the impact of community-driven content beyond likes and views

  • Practical advice for brands that don’t currently have a passionate fanbase
