Today’s episode of the Skool Morning Show is available for replay and I wanted to share a quick recap for anyone who missed it. Important Note: If you want to watch live with us and be part of the comments during the show, you can do that by joining the community and commenting on the post we use during the live. Today’s conversation covered a few really interesting things around Skool communities, discovery, and engagement. We started by talking about how many different types of communities are already on Skool and how many niches are still completely open. When you look through Discovery you’ll see communities around things like pickleball, calligraphy, AI, and all kinds of hobbies. But there are still so many interests that nobody has built a community around yet. It was a good reminder that you do not need some massive complicated idea to start a community. Sometimes the best ones are built around something people genuinely enjoy talking about. We also looked at a community that is extremely active where members talk about fragrances and what scents they are buying. It’s a great example of how engagement comes from people sharing something they care about and showing up consistently, not from having the biggest course library. From there we spent some time talking about Skool Discovery and why it matters if you want new members finding your community. A lot of people spend tons of time on their About page but the short description people see in Discovery is usually what makes someone decide to click. If that one sentence clearly explains what the community helps someone do, it makes a huge difference. That led into a discussion about the one sentence offer. (Check out this post about how to make one.) Instead of listing features like calls, courses, or resources, the description should explain the outcome someone wants and why your community is the place to get it.

When you run a Skool community, approving new members is part of keeping things organized and useful for everyone. One simple habit that helps is checking whether a new member request looks consistent and genuine before approving it. In this post, I share one practical way to spot spam or fake accounts in Skool during the approval process, using information that’s already visible to you as an admin or owner. This quick check can help you • Keep member conversations relevant • Reduce unnecessary DMs and comments • Make sure people joining are who they say they are It only takes a few seconds per request and fits easily into your normal Skool moderation workflow.

Skool Stories is back on the Skool Stories YouTube channel and this return episode sets the tone for what is coming next. @Matthew Thompson and Evelyn Weiss sit down with Andrew Kirby and Claire Quinn to walk through how Skool started for them, what happened before Skool even existed, and how they ended up working at Skool today. Andrew talks about starting as a customer in Sam Ovens’ previous company and mastermind, watching Sam pivot to Skool, and investing when nobody really knew what Skool was yet. He explains how he ended up as one of the first investors, launched the first free Skool community for “synthesizers” who love to learn and teach, and later helped big creators bring their people into Skool. He walks through the full Hamza story from the original “why self improvement YouTubers are lying to you” video, to Hamza using his dopamine detox Reddit to get early subscribers, to the Loom plan that helped Hamza go from about twenty thousand a month to two hundred thousand a month in roughly thirty days with a Skool launch. Claire talks about starting as a nurse in a major trauma unit during covid, getting pushed into full responsibility early, and eventually hitting a point where she could not keep going at that pace. She explains how she moved into online work, took a Twitter job with Tiago Forte, helped launch Building a Second Brain, and then over time found her place at Skool as executive assistant, quietly running a lot of the details behind events and day to day operations. What makes this episode special is how candid it is. You get to see the messy middle. The unexpected turns. The exact moments where their lives and Skool crossed paths in a way neither of them planned. If you want a true inside look at Skool’s rise and what is coming next for creators, members, and the platform itself, you will want to watch this entire episode from start to finish.
