BIG NEWS FOR MY SKOOL CREATOR FRIENDS
This could be a huge week for a few of you reading this. The kind of week you look back on as a pivotal turning point in how you run your Skool, your time, and your money. Now I know that's a big promise. But I can deliver, so stick with me for 2 min and read this post. Let me explain: Not long ago, I had a serious problem going on with my own Skool and online business. Without going into the full drama, I basically had: - A Skool that was working - Notifications at 99 plus every time I opened the app - DMs I felt guilty for not answering - New members joining and leaving without me even noticing - Events and challenges patched together at the last second On top of that I was juggling college, hoops, rehab, family, relationship, life. It was a lot. Every time I opened my phone it felt like getting sucker punched in the stomach by my own success. I wanted the growth but I could feel my brain sliding back toward burnout. And then it clicked. During this messy season, I doubled down on building systems instead of just trying to “push harder.” I started wiring in: - Skoot as the tool that makes me money when I sleep (Customer Relationship Manager) - Automations that ping me when members join, leave, or when payments fail - AI clones of myself for marketing, sales, product, and client success - A full Getting Things Done-based operating system on my Apple stuff and ChatGPT - Real constraints and tools around my phone time - A boring simple wealth frame so Skool money did not just leak away At the time I thought “ok this is probably overkill” but tbh it changed everything. Today I can run an active, profitable Skool community, keep my brain mostly calm, and still have enough energy left for school and life. For the first time, I was actually: - Serving my members well - Not drowning in DMs - Not losing sleep over notifications and to do lists - And actually moving money toward a future I feel good about It felt ridiculously liberating.
