Hey, epic humans! (warning I might get a bit soppy) You may or may not know, but I’ve been showing up consistently here for the last 14 days, and I want to start with a MASSIVE shoutout—you guys are FIRE! 🔥 I’ve made so many amazing connections, and I can honestly say that this community has brought a new level of joy and energy back into my heart and soul. 💖 Now, let me keep it real with you... Yes, I’ve been giving value. Yes, I’ve been visible. Yes, I’ve made EPIC connections. Yes, I’m growing my community one step at a time. And yes, I’m learning a TON along the way. BUT, and this is important—I’ve still got plenty on my get-to-do list, and finding time for it all is proving to be a bit of a juggle. I’ve done my VSL (finally, right?), but I still want to add more to my About page. I’ve only got ONE upsell in the classroom (which I’ve sold, but hey—it’s a start). And here’s the kicker—I haven’t even set up my Start Here section yet. 🤦‍♀️ Next up: adding more to my calendar because there’s SO MUCH more I want to share. So here’s my point—I’m taking it one step at a time. It’s a work in progress, and that’s okay. Now, let’s talk about something I heard recently—someone said, “Getting likes on posts doesn’t lead to anything.” And you know what? They’re right. Likes don’t mean sh*t. It’s not about the likes. It’s about getting visible for the RIGHT reasons. It’s about showing up with REAL value, for REAL people, and contributing for the RIGHT reasons. 🙌 @Sam Ovens talked about being a top contributor, in the evolution of Skool, to fricken right… Show up and contribute with heart, that's what I am about! Give support, lift each other up, and empower your fellow community members. Be humble. Be open. Be real. Be raw. Be a f*cking badass. And I'm here also for the banter, the fun, and the epic connections. Thanks so much. You all know who you are!!! @Ron Deering @Harold Meadows @Nick Maier @Hunter Johnston @Brendon Hayes (to name a few)

(And what you should do instead)

This is probably already in development but I'd love to be able to react to messages and reply to them within DMs. Would also be great to have a sent/delivered/read view :) What do y'all think?

I have a free group that's just for people who bought my book and some other courses. I don't do anything to nurture the group except for popping in to answer questions when I can. When the ability to sell a one-time course came out, I added a paid course to my Skool group. It got some sales. Then I spoke with @Sam Ovens and he showed me how to do something painfully obvious. (I didn't realize we could do this.) I implemented it in about 30 seconds and it made around $1,000 last week with zero promotion. This video shows what I did. TLDR: Free Group + Paid Course = Awesome. Yay!
