Behind the Build | Auli Takala: From Getting Seen to Building Real Connections

Getting noticed is one thing. Building relationships that lead to real opportunities is another. In this episode of Behind the Build, Donna and Todd Thornton welcome Auli Takala, founder of Backstage. Auli shares how Backstage began, why she spent months building relationships in other communities, and what she's learned about visibility, trust, and helping members get results. We also explore why quiet members may be more connected than we realize, why promotion alone isn't always enough, and how listening to members can change the way we build. It's an honest, thoughtful conversation about the person behind Backstage and what it takes to create meaningful connections.
