I hope I am not violating any community guidelines with this post. I want to understand how popular Skool is among Russian speakers. I decided to niche down into this language and gauge how many people who speak Russian have Skool accounts.

@Sam Ovens When can we expect to upload our own video files to Skool? Also, how much storage space per group after launch can we expect? I'd like to discontinue my Vimeo subscription and go all-in here. Thanks!

Is localization of SKOOL in the works? I would love to reduce the friction for people to join my group, which is in another language. I do see that there are a lot of non English groups here but as I understand they do have to tell their prospective members to find the button with English text "Join Group" and click on it. If they are altogether new to SKOOL, they have to get registred and the whole Workflow is again in English. Or am I missing something here and barking up the wrong tree?

Any chance after you watch a video in the classroom you can get the tick circle to automatically go green? I’m fine with clicking it myself, however I remember when I first started I didn't know I needed to. Cheers

Today (17th of Nov 2024) marks exactly 365 days since I started my Skool on Nov 17th 2023... So I thought I’d tell you what impact it’s had on my business, the gems I’ve picked up along the way, and my honest and unbiased review. A month before I started my Skool, I had closed down my marketing agency to go all in as a growth partner for coaches. I created my Skool simply to have proof-of-concept when it came to owning and running a community. I created a free Skool, and for the last 365 days, it has remained free, I’ve never made a paid skool (for myself) I simply just have a free skool → clients. Btw this was a little before the Hormozi partnership and true Skool rise, so things were a little more lowkey at the time. I did Skool outreach to get my first 100 members, we slowly climbed to 300 or so and then kicked into some organic growth. The 300 to 1000 member ride was quick and smooth. no ads, no funnels, no promo on other platforms. Just organic Skool growth. At one point we we’re coming in hot to the top 100 Skool communities. My community allowed me to sign some big time clients which was cool. systems and operations soon became the clear high performer of our service so I doubled down on it, and tweaked my Skool towards it. Our organic growth has slowed down and over the last 6 months, simply just because of the sheer increase in active communities or "options". However we've maintained a slow and steady growth curve of 2-8 members every 24 hours. Currently we sit at 1,992 members (so close to 2k in one year lol). Gaining 2.4k Skool followers has given me a small kick of social proof on the platform too. We’ve dialed in some deadly Skool workflows and it’s been a blast. Looking forward to seeing what year two brings. Another ripple effect is the $1,000 in total skool affiliates I just crossed, which is cool. I use skool a little different, it’s my free community, where I post content, give free assets and collect emails & ph numbers for my campaigns. it’s the ultimate incubator for my agency, hence the name ;)
