The only way I can answer is just my experience. Just over a year ago I posted a few notes, and actually found a few locals interested in meeting up.
Today, we have an awesome bunch.
I think much of our success early on was making the first several meetups just a social event. Nothing more than simply getting together with other bitcoiners, and casually just talking. Our first meet was Buffalo Wild Wings, a safe public space, horrible food, but you could converse maybe have a drink. Those were the best times, we didn’t stress the future, the group, talk about renting/buying a HQ… just good times. But as we have grown, we started simple? Mix up 20% of the time just to show everyone how a miner works… as you grow your group will gradually start wanting structure, maybe do a few slide shows, a workshop, wallet or transaction demos, nostr etc.
It’s important to simply spend the time and keep the commitment. Eventually everyone becomes closer and the consensus has a vision, and things happen and escalate organically.
Just show up, everything else falls into place.
