Now we show the top 5 groups from every category on the homepage in random order. This gives groups from all categories a better chance of being discovered. Plus it's more fun. We used to rank all groups globally, now we rank them per category. We tried a new algorithm, but as many of you pointed out, it wasn't very good. We reverted to the original algorithm. Thank you for your feedback. Our intention is to make things better, and we did, but we had to make things worse for 24h to get there. Sorry about that. More detail in the video. Enjoy!

First of all I speak 4 languages and none of them well 😂, so apologies for my grammar, but I wanted to explain how I shifted from High Ticket to Membership this year. I still do DFY events for 20k but I am getting really picky who I take as a client. Last year was a bit of a wake up call for me as people started to have really unrealistic expectations when they couldn’t close their offer and I realised I should really only accept applications from experienced coaches not “Inexperienced coaches” I can’t tell you what a difference it makes. There is one thing I can’t do for the client during the launch and that is selling on their behalf. We can emcee it but people will buy from the seller eventually not me or my team. This year traditional virtual events methods are going to be tough. What used to work effortlessly is becoming increasingly difficult It's not just a bad few months of the year, it's just the way the economy works. If you went ahead and planned a $20k- 30k event and you ticked all the boxes with a sexy funnel and a cool ads campaign and made zero dollars by the time you opened your shopping cart…. Let me tell you ….You are not alone in this. I've been there and It's already been happening for my clients as well as myself, struggling to adapt, watching once-successful strategies fail. In fact we just wrapped up a 5-day challenge, achieving a phenomenal 65% application rate for a $40,000 coaching program. It was amazing and we were all happy with the outcome except the client called me and said that they barely closed 2 clients at the end. 90% of the applicant who said "I Am In” to the program got rejected from the funding company. That’s just 2 sales, and even they got to use financing…. All this even after a flawless Virtual Event we did for the client. It's hard out there, and the ability for new customers to get funding into high ticket programs is thinning out big time. Lenders are going down hard on coaches. The share holders are getting nervous.

I'm not happy with the recent trends in this community. This is a place for genuine conversations and connections with other community owners. This is not a place for you to build your "thought leader" reputation with "4 things I learned in Bali about leadership" type posts and hollow comments. Here's the rules: 1. Don't be annoying 2. No self promotion 3. Don't use chatGPT 4. This isn't LinkedIn: Don't be a "thought leader" (see meme) 5. No engagement farming: Empty content to boost posts and get likes 6. Be positive 7. Make an effort If you see any posts/comments that break these rules - report them. If you're not sure, report them anyway. We're tightening up moderation.

Hey Skool Fam! I use the Auto DM feature to help students onboard when joining my Skool communities. But with a character limit of only 300 characters, I find it a bit constraining to be able to explain everything a student needs to know when joining. Would it be possible to add a feature that allows us to attach video links like we do within a Community Post? This way I could just record a loom video showing students what to do next / expect when onboarding. Thanks! -Nick
