Like all things, growing a Skool community and getting engagement is EASY when you know what to do. In this post you'll learn the 3 secrets to growing a free & potentially highly profitable Skool community. Here's how I grew my free Skool community to 250 members with an 80% activity score over the last 7 days. (For context, I have a $47/m membership with 280 members, but I recently just launched a free Skool community so I can create a pool of prospects to nurture for eventual sales down the road.) - Secret 1: Make the group public. I used to think a private group was the move, but I was wrong. Private only makes sense if your community required paid access. When your group is public, it gives people the chance to tour the community and get a feel for it - and if you're group look good, they'll join. - Secret 2: Invite people. I used the bulk .CSV invite feature, but it didn't work as well as I thought it would. I sent an email to 10,000+ people with it, but not many joined from it... The real magic was inviting people in my FB group by telling them I was closing the FB group (see attached image) AND when I told my FB group (& my Instagram following) they could access my new contentpreneurship course inside the Skool group (see attached image). So now I'm going to email my 10k+ list and invite them using the same angle. - Secret 3: Set your courses to unlock after level 1 & 2. As you can see in the image below, I locked everything except for 1 course. This way, if someone was visiting the public group, they could at least watch my Step 1 and get inspired & learn how to unlock the rest of the material. But here's the real secret for getting super high engagement: Set all your good course material to unlock after level 2, and tell your people that in order get to level 2, they need to introduce themselves, and to get to level 3 and above, they should comment underneath with their key takeaways and insight.

Thank you, Sam Ovens, for this beautiful educational platform. I already see fruit in my community management. We have transferred 525 people to Skool in less than 48 hours, and I only see massive growth from here. I am hesitant to move my paid community over because of the limitations of the app & payment processor, which you have already disclosed the development of this year in the road map. I have a development team, and I understand these are massive projects. You are managing company resources, and I will be patient. Here are some quick and easy improvements, you can bring to Skool to improve the customer experience. 1. Auto accept not only on web hooks but global auto accept feature. 2. Also when you go to a persons profile the tabs disappear. This made it super awkward when making a tutorial. 3. Auto load posts 4. Schedule Post - I forgot to add this in the video. Id love to be able to schedule posts for the future it makes my workflow way easier. I can schedule a weeks worth of content in a day. Thanks for watching!

Hi everyone, I've been struggling to build ANY engagement other than people introducing themselves. Once they post that first comment they disappear. It's a free group funnel to nurture leads and transition into my paid program. Here's what I've done so far: - Seeded the group (start here/welcome video post/introduce yourself) - Included a high value free mini course - Added 120 members from my warm list - Regularly post content every few days (YouTube videos and written text) 1/week is sent as an email - Host free webinars - Created polls asking questions I rarely post a CTA to book a call. Despite all of this, engagement is DEAD (almost non existent). Any suggestions on how to turn things around?

This question is from the admin's perspective as well as a member. I'm an admin of Compound. I created the calendar for the mastermind however these events don't show up on my apple or google calendar. How do I add these with one click? Also, how do I enable students to add this easily? Yes, they will get an email 1 day before the call. But let's say they have a calendly link but because the mastermind call is not in their calendar, the calendly shows it as free. Then someone books that time in their calendar (which means they can't make the mastermind). This is just one scenario.

Would love a way to add all dates to my Google calendar in one go as opposed to asking them all one by one 🙏
