@Christine Fournier Aww, thank you so much! 🤩
Growth Boost Update
Since I turned Growth Boost on 48 hours ago, we've received 1 new member who promptly churned because he said he didn't like recurring subscriptions. Up until that point in time, we consistently got 2-3 new QUALIFIED members every day. Now mind you, those were free members, and we do not get a new paying member every day, so that is definitely something to take into consideration... If you were me, what would you do? Vote in the poll below, and share your comments as well. I'd love to hear what you think.

Growth Boost Update

@Shannon Boyer I did, but it's a searchable niche and a much larger one when advertised on FB and IG. Skool-related ads only attract Skool members who already know the platform.

@Christine Fournier Sweet.
Update - GB Ads
I woke up this morning to this: 8 ads running, and they look pretty good! Something else new also happened. For the first time since this community opened in August 2025, I've had NO new members all day. We'll see what the rest of the day brings, and I'll keep you updated! @Éva Raposa @Des Dreckett Here you go! 😉

Thanks for sharing @Shannon Boyer Hmm, interesting......
BIG News!!!
The CLASSIFIEDS is now a paid community. 🤩 I've said since the beginning that community owners shouldn't make business decisions based on Growth Boost, and I strongly believe that to this day, but there were several reasons why optimizing for GB was in the best interest of this business. Here are my thoughts, in no particular order... 1. I have always kept this community free because I wanted it to be accessible, especially for new community builders. At only $2/month and a proven track record, I feel that is still true. 2. I have to keep GB on for this community because the Skool Network provides more than 50% of our members and Discovery is very important for our growth. 3. There were never any ads for this community. Increasing the percentage to 50 or even 70% didn't make a difference - it only resulted in my paying more of my profits to Skool. I've since learned that is because free and freemium communities are only rarely boosted. 4. The CLASSIFIEDS vacillates between a level 3 and a level 4 on Growth Boost, which would be ah-mazing except for the fact that being freemium gives us ZERO benefits. 5. I just learned that @Éva Raposa made a community a one time fee of $2 and got ads! 🤯 So, given all these factors, like I said, I believe it is the best interest for the long-term growth and prosperity of this group to go paid, but for a minimal fee. Let me know your thoughts below. I'll keep you updated with the progress (or lack thereof!). And, does this mean I have to put my picture on the thumbnail now??? 😩
