Who do you help do what? One of my clients just emailed me asking for help with her description of what her coaching offer is, and if it could be refined at all. It DEFINITELY could be refined. It was very unclear what the singular offer was that my client offered; far too much description of method and far too little focus on WHO she HELPS do WHAT? So I offered my thoughts and also sent her back part of the worksheet which helps members get clarity on the transformation they offer (you can get the whole worksheet in the 'What's your niche?' section HERE). Maybe it can help you too? Here it is... "I help............................................................................................................................................. (THE TYPE OF MEMBER/CLIENT YOU RESONATE MOST WITH, WHO MAY OR MAY NOT BE A PREVIOUS VERSION OF YOURSELF) to solve the problem of................................................................................................................. (THE PROBLEM WHICH IS THE SAME OR RELATED TO A MAJOR CHALLENGE YOU HAVE OVERCOME)… by acknowledging their pain points of...(PAIN POINTS/OBSTACLES)…................................. and using my personal talents, skills, experience and passions of…..................................... (YOUR TALENTS/EXPERIENCE ETC—AS RELATE TO THE PROBLEM YOU SOLVE…) to empower their transformation from..................................................................................... A) (DESCRIBE YOUR IDEAL MEMBER/CLIENT’S STATE ‘BEFORE’ TRANSFORMATION) to...................................................................................................................................................... B) (DESCRIBE YOUR IDEAL MEMBER/CLIENT’S STATE ‘AFTER’ TRANSFORMATION)" Then see if you can distill your answer further into one succinct sentence. Who do you help do what? In once sentence.

When choosing your name for your group or community remember you can only change the url once. You can change the name of your group as often as you like but the url will be constant, after the single change you are permitted. So it is probably a good idea to choose a url which is short and allows room to pivot should the nature of your group or community evolve over time—and you may wish to change the name of your group or community. As a coach you could simply choose to use your name, or some version of it (eg bengrantmitchell could be bencoach etc..) for the url and make the group name something else entirely like 'Grant Empowerment'.

Screening new members helps to grow a vibrant community of engaged members. If you are starting with a group that is free to join then you should definitely make use of the automatic questions feature. Not only is this a fantastic way to gather relevant information from new members it also helps you to make sure you only approve requests from real people who you feel are aligned—or somewhat aligned—with your group offering. And the number one goal for your Skool group should probably be creating a community of like-minds; not 'same-minds' but like-minds. Learn how to set automatic questions up HERE: https://help.skool.com/article/57-how-to-set-up-membership-questions **PRO-TIP** If you are still unsure whether the applicant is a good fit, even after receiving the answers to your questions from a prospective new member, you can ask more questions personally via the chat feature. This is a great way to weed out bots and 'free-group-collectors' (people who join lots of free groups but don't engage with the community at all) PLUS a great way to build rapport from the beginning with legitimate applicants who are generally happy to answer more questions.
