Hello everyone, I am Henry from Columbia, South Carolina. Army veteran, 26 years in marketing at CBS and Fox, and now I bake bread for a living and teach a whole lot of other people to do the same. I'm on the creator side of the table, which probably makes me the odd one out in here. About 50,000 people across my platforms. A Facebook group with 40,000 members, a Skool community that just crossed a thousand, and a free recipe app doing 52,000 monthly users. Six books published. The Skool community got to a thousand with zero ad spend and landed in the top 1% of all Skool communities, and it's got a 5.0 on ProveWorth, which matters more to me than the member count does. People stay because it works, not because I sold them hard. The engine behind all of it is one weekly ritual. A Saturday bake-along, week 30 now, and we haven't missed one. Everything else in the business runs off that rhythm. I build the tools too. Recipe Pantry is the big one, a free recipe library with baker's math and scaling built in. There's a fermentation calculator, a starter troubleshooter, and an AI assistant named Krusty who answers baking questions at two in the morning so I don't have to. Where I'm headed is the paid layer. One of my books, From Oven to Market, is about building a bread business at farmers markets, and I'm turning it into my flagship course. Zero direct competitors in that niche, which is either a great sign or a warning, and I'd like some experienced eyes on which one it is. That's really why I'm here. I've built the audience and the trust. What I haven't built is the monetization system underneath it, and I'm at the point where I either figure that out myself or find people who already have. What I can offer back is the view from the other side of a partnership. If creator acquisition is your bottleneck, I can tell you what makes a creator want to work with somebody and what makes one stop reading an outreach message in the first line. I can also talk retention all day. Weekly rituals, content systems, and the culture that gets people to show up 30 Saturdays running. Ask me anything about either.
