Welcome founding community members. Let's start this off with a BIG Question. I want to build a community that isn't a second thought or, worse, an afterthought. It's beneficial, it's actionable, and it's scalable. Is Skool the place to be? Admittedly, I had heard of Skool, but never used it before Hormozi's announcement. I've used Circle, Facebook groups, telegram, slack, discord, you name it, we've used it at some point. I'm not building a group because it's a needed business asset for lead generation. I'm doing this because I want a community of smart people who have an internal focus on video, social content, and building online businesses. I find myself desperate for a community to call home. A community that I can help people build and thrive. Which is what I've been doing for over 17 years in this space. I plan to launch this group in February, but I am not so sure where to call home. I like Facebook groups because they're meeting a segment where they're at, but I think they're a dying medium for what we do. I like Slack selfishly, but not sure it's scalable. I'm 39 years old, Discord is a clusterfuck to brains like mine. Telegram is interesting, I like how clean it is, but is it too noisy? Skool/Circle are cool- I like Circle features a lot, but even with stacked value/personal attention, will it encourage you to show up often? Will it make you want to interact/engage? I have 100 or so cohort community members I've trained via Circle, I'll be porting over to wherever we live, and from there, a couple hundred Facebook peeps, so we should have a solid foundation to build something special.

I'm Adam, and I've been building YouTube Channels a long time. Really, since the beginning of YouTube. I've keynoted at VidSummit (Mr. Beast's YouTube Event), Traffic & Conversion Summit, and Podfest, and even had YouTube invite my team to speak at their events. I say this not to brag but to say why this school differs from other YouTube training groups and/or programs. Not only will this group be a place to get free support and advice on your YouTube channel and content creation... But what makes us REALLY different is we don't build channels to "go viral" or just "get views..." We build channels to build industry-leading brands. So, whether you are a coach, consultant, or hobbyist, you have knowledge, experience, and ideas that can be monetized to massive levels. I've generated well over 1,000,000 accessible business leads through YouTube on my channel, I Love Basketball, turning those leads into millions of dollars. I then turned my online business model into a consulting and partnership practice, where I went on to help build leading channels across Yoga, running, baseball, golf, language education, meditation, business, and massage, and helped translate views and subscribers into leads and sales, building numerous multiple 6, 7, and even 8+ figure businesses. If you're serious about being a creator, building a community, and eventually, monetizing your knowledge, experience, and ideas.... Welcome home. You found your new hub online, and I'm excited to work with you. Let's do this...
