My Formula For Consistent Growth
My community gets 3-5 member requests a day. Here's how I've gotten to this point... When I started my community in late May, I didn't add anything to the classroom. I mean yeah, I didn't know what the classroom even was at the time but that's not the point... The point is, I created my community to engage with people and share my expertise. Not sell anything. I spent the first month sharing as much value as I could and doing a lot of cold outreach to people who I felt would either add value to the community or would benefit from what I talked about. Then, I started adding to the classroom. This created a lot more buzz and engagement in the community. Which boosted its search rankings (almost in the triple digits!) and drew more people to the community. I revamped the onboarding so every new member has the opportunity to book a free call with me. I still respond to every DM and post that comes through the community. I may be up to 300 members by the end of the week! Not gonna lie... I feel this post was super messy ๐ But I hope it was helpful for anyone starting to build a community they have big plans for! Have a great week, Skoolers!
