Hey Ad Masters!
I've been drowning in work as I overhaul 50-something accounts for an agency client, on top of my normal workload.
That said, I'm getting pumped about the future of the Community and working on making it a better and more valuable experience.
Please let me know if there is anything in particular you'd like to see that would compel you to tell all of your friends and colleagues to join this group because of the immense value.
In the meantime, here are some ideas I've had for the future of the group (some near, some slightly less near):
- Better Utilizing the Classroom
The Classroom section of Skool is a place for structured learning and I'm currently under-utilizing it. I got to see under the hood of another group and was made quickly aware of my limited mindset regarding the classroom.
- Moving forward, I plan to add a Resources section with all sorts of tools, expanded knowledge, swipe files, etc, to make it easier to find things that may help you as they've helped me over the years.
- I also plan to add some dedicated training that can be unlocked as you gain points and level up. Most of the dedicated training I've been creating is geared toward new ad managers, whereas this coaching community is for those working in the trenches, but there are certainly things that apply to all experience levels and I could always create new training upon request.
- The classroom is also a great place for community rules and explaining how to get points, provide feedback, etc. I'll pretty well hide everything behind the Level 2 lock, making it basically mandatory to make a post or comment so you can get some likes/points.
- I may start adding the recorded coaching calls and Q&A clips to the Classroom as well, making them accessible by search in the community feed or through a dedicated Classroom set. (TBD)
- I want to add more fun things to unlock. What would you want to unlock for hitting higher levels? I've added some free 1-on-1 coaching calls as rewards, but was thinking about adding a free account audit and/or some other rewards. Anything in particular sound good? I can't give my personal 1-on-1 time to everyone as the community grows, but I'm happy to give it while the group is smaller.
Please share any and all feedback in the comments below as it comes to you.
Thanks for being such a great community! I look forward to serving you more excellently as we move forward.
