𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡: 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗦𝗞𝗢𝗢𝗟 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗢𝗪𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗦 Have you recently experienced any of the following symptoms? ⚠️ Opening Skool to do one little thing and emerging an hour later. ⚠️ Falling down a rabbit hole of features you didn't even know existed. ⚠️ Looking at someone else's community and suddenly questioning everything you're doing with yours. ⚠️ Feeling that you should be posting more, doing more, and generally doing ALL THE THINGS. ⚠️ Wondering when running your community became a full-time job in itself. 𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗕𝗘 𝗔𝗗𝗩𝗜𝗦𝗘𝗗: These symptoms may be caused by overcomplicating Skool. Left unchecked, they may result in unnecessary stress, lost time and a desperate need for another coffee. ☕😂 𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗜𝗦 𝗔 𝗖𝗨𝗥𝗘! You do NOT need to use every feature. You do NOT need to copy everyone else. And you certainly don't need to spend every waking hour running your community. 💡 Skool Made Simple is here to help you make sense of Skool, learn what you need to know and build a community that works around your life, not the other way around. 🚨 𝗦𝗔𝗙𝗘𝗧𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡: Stop trying to figure everything out alone.

𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗛𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗚𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗲 𝗦𝗶𝘅 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀 A member of my community runs a crochet community. She calls her members Hookers! Which already tells you she knows exactly who her people are. Her recent post joked about the possible side effects of learning to crochet: • Buying yarn for projects you haven’t started. • Saying “just one more row” at midnight. • Collecting unfinished WIPs. • Calling the yarn stash an “investment.” • And eventually referring to yourself as a hooker in public. I read it and immediately started creating merch in my head. Project bag: One Stitch at a Time Row counter: One Row at a Time Stitch-marker tin: Emergency Hooker Supplies Project tags: Still Working My Program / It’s Complicated / On a Break Crochet notebook: My Recovery Plan — for recovering all those unfinished WIPs. Tool pouch: One Stitch at a Time — Hooker Survival Kit None of those ideas came from browsing “best merch for crocheters.” They came from the culture she had already created. The language. The habits. The inside jokes. The things her people immediately recognize as theirs. The products aren’t the idea. Her community is. Sometimes the best product ideas are already sitting in the way your customers talk. What’s one phrase or inside joke that would immediately tell your customers, “this was made for us”? Join my free community, GET YOUR MERCH MADE and give me one phrase, joke, habit or problem your clients, customers or members understand that an outsider probably wouldn’t. Let’s see what might be hiding inside it.
