I’ve been building something quietly behind the scenes for a very specific group of people… Parents and teachers who want to help young kids learn to sing the right way from the very beginning, without needing a music background. This is something I used to teach in classrooms… and now I’ve turned it into something you can do at home or in lessons. It’s simple. Structured. And honestly, it’s really fun! I’ve never packaged it like this before. I’ll be sharing everything tomorrow. If you have a child (or teach kids) and want them to build real skills while actually enjoying it, comment KIDSING below and I’ll make sure you see it first.

Hello beautiful humans! Just when I was getting into a posting groove on Skool groups other than my own - I ghosted... and it was for vanity purposes. 😭 Backstory: When I first joined Skool, after hitting the milestones, I changed my handle to my LLC name @brooklynpencil without realizing (paying attention to the prompt) Skool only lets you change your handle once. 10000% my fault cause its pretty clear. Over the past few months I’ve been consolidating business things reevaluating how I want to show up here and online as a whole. Brooklyn Pencil is my VA business. But shouldn't be tied to my communities here. So since I already used my 1 chance, the only way to fix the handle situation was to create a new personal Skool profile, transfer ownership of my communities, and then rejoin all the groups I’m part of. (I emailed Skool support several times. They would not budge! ) So yes… a little annoying, a few learning curves, a bit sad too cause of the short posting history I already had on my original account, a total vanity preference, PLUS i had to re-fulfill the requirements, but I'm back up and running and my @ handle on Skool is my name. Mission accomplished. Hire a VA is still growing and doing its thing. We’ve got a solid group of Virtual Assistants inside the community and the goal is still the same: connect business owners with reliable operational support. If you’re drowning in admin, operations, inboxes, reporting, scheduling, or the million small tasks that slow your business down… I probably have a VA for that. Good to be back in here. 👋🏾

Hi everyone -- this is my first time posting in the skool Classifieds, so I hope I post this correctly! I'm a voice educator - I typically teach young competitive singers, professional singers, and adult hobbyists, but two of my other voice teachers and I recently took on some very talented young children in private lessons, so this course grew from that need. If you have a child (or know one), please read on, answer the poll, and comment or DM me for more info. I used to teach classroom voice and music in addition to choir and theater to children starting at age 3, so I am an advocate for early voice & music education (I'm a trained SLPA as well). I've decided to use the curriculum I taught in the classroom and turn it into an online course for parents to do with their child, along with my guidance. The course is called KidSing Academy, for ages 4-12. There are 3 levels and 19 lessons are already available in Level 1, with easy step by step instructions for parents to do at home. I've created these lessons to be simple to follow for parents who have no musical background, but want to give their kids a creative outlet and fun yet structured parent-child bonding time. The Level 1 lessons are available now, and I’m continuing to add resources to each one. Because the course is still being expanded, it’s currently offered at a one-time price of $27, which will increase once everything is complete. You can begin working with your child right away, and you’re always welcome to ask questions in the community under the KidSing Academy tab. Or you can join VIP to get live teacher guidance and instruction, plus everything my group has to offer in addition to KidSing Academy. If you want to join VIP, go here for plans in my group The Singing Circle

One of the most important things I've learned since becoming an online entrepreneur is that the most important thing you can do to grow your business is to build relationships. Many of us (myself included) have rushed to promote our groups and services that we care so deeply about. And it only makes sense - we are excited about what we are doing! Today, I'd like to invite you to take a step back and introduce yourself to the group by answering the following questions: 1. Who are you personally? 2. Who are you professionally? 3. What is something you love doing outside of work? 4. What is something surprising about you? As you open up and make more connections, you will find that not only are people more interested in what you do, but they will also be more interested in helping you make connections with other people they know! 😉 After you introduce yourself, please scroll through the other introductions and add a comment to someone you have something in common with or would like to know more about. 😊 Please add your introduction in the comments below! ⬇️

We had such an amazing call today in the PERSONALS. Yes, it started off a bit awkward (and that was mostly my fault) but the ball got rolling and we were able to have a wonderful conversation about collaboration and engagement (3 members even stayed on the call for an hour after I had to leave - thank you @Alexander Walter for taking the reins!). We do two calls a month - one is what I call and exchange of business cards where we introduce ourselves, what our groups do, and who they are for. It is recorded and the recording is shared with the group (just to be clear, there are no actual business cards...). The other call is a version of what we did today where it is just a casual conversation about a topic of interest. The "business card" exchange is earlier in the day and usually has 20+ people in attendance. The discussion is later in the day and usually has about a dozen people in attendance. What I'm wondering is: is it the time of day that makes the difference or the type of call that makes the difference? My kids are really into the "Would You Rather" game right now, so I thought we could play along too. Please vote in the poll and then explain your answer in the comments below. If you are not attending these sessions because you are not a premium member, please let me know what would be necessary for you to become premium for $3/month. So the question is: Would you rather have two "business card" exchanges each month OR would you rather have the discussion meeting earlier in the day???
