I'm new here williing to connect with anyone on this community

Great news! If you're new to Google Ads (or have shaky foundations), I've just dropped the Google Ads Quick Start Program in the classroom for you. The program is designed to take you from "Zero experience" to "More knowledgeable than most ad managers that have a year of experience" and has over 8 hours of content, a free e-book, a bonus master class on marketing principles, and it's free! NOTE: I will be taking this down when I've had the chance to build a landing page for it and sell it. Also NOTE: You can only access it for free if you've done something halfway valuable for the other members of this group! Yup, you've got to be Level 2 in this group to access the free quick start program. You can do that really quickly by just posting an introduction or something. You only need 5 points to get to level 2, so posting an introduction and/or commenting on other posts is a quick and easy way to get some engagement. Every time someone likes one of your comments or posts, you get a point. Get 5 likes, and you've got access to all of the content in this group. The more value you provide, the more likely you are to get likes, but if you like other peoples' comments and share the love, it will likely come around if you post anything yourself. If you have no interest in the Quick Start Program for beginners, there may be some other stuff behind the Level 2 gate that makes it worth making a single post, so give it a shot! You can even post introductions as a comment on this post. Also, please let me know your thoughts about the program if you go through it. Thanks! -Ryan

So I went from a thriving and very engaged paid group (cheap, $9-$19/mo) to a completely dead, but growing group when I made it free to the public. I had locked everything behind the 2nd level, which required 5 likes to unlock. If you joined and added an introduction with some level of value, or put in any sort of valuable post or comment, it would be easy to level up and gain access to everything. However, nobody is posting, liking, or commenting. I want you to have access to my Google Ads Quick Start Program, so I moved it to level one in the classroom. Now you don't have to give any sort of effort to get 8 hours of Google Ads and Marketing Principle training. Enjoy, lurkers. ;) Also, I'm gonna have a baby any day, so I'm not holding this month's coaching call. Nobody joined the last one, so I'll try again in December.
