One of the great things about Skool is that Sam Ovens listens when people ask questions or make feature requests inside the Skoolers community. Some questions that came up were: How do I get notified when someone posts in my community? How do I get a notification when a new member requests to join? These were common questions because most owners want to respond quickly and keep engagement moving. Until now there was no way to turn those alerts on. Skool listened and built the solution. You now have them in your notification controls. They are turned off by default. If you want alerts, you can turn them on manually. Here is how to update your notification settings: Click on your profile photo. - Desktop will show you the user menu drop down - Mobile you will have to click the 3 dots in the top right to get to the user menu drop down On the user menu drop down, click Settings. Then click on Notifications. - Desktop it will have tabs on the side and you see "Notifications" there - Mobile you will need to slide it to see "Notifications" Then expand the notification settings for the community you want to change. Click either On or Off for what you want to be notified on. You can turn on notifications for: • Admin announcements • Event reminder email • New customer email • Membership requests • Reported content • New Post This puts you in control of what you stay updated on. Faster approvals. Better responsiveness. A smoother community experience for everyone. Which notification are you turning on first now that the option is finally here?

Gonna summarize the loom :) What have you learned? - Anything can work if you stick to it for long enough- the power of volume is CRAZY What’s changed for you? - I went from working construction full-time for $300/month to making $3k+/month online :) What moments stand out most? - Going from $0 to $700/month in 11 days was a special feeling. - Getting my first high ticket client at $1000/month was also amazing. - And then having a cool partnership & full-time position at $3000/month helped me have a pretty cool time in Bali as a digital nomad! What would you tell someone who’s only a few weeks or months in and thinking about giving up? - Break everything down into small steps, and ideally have a mentor you trust who can help you do that. - Make $1000/month online seems scary but if you break it down to: offer, market, price, volume required for a client, etc. then it's not nearly as scary. Huge shoutout to @Jenna Ostrye for the last year, you've genuinely changed my life forever and I'm super grateful for you :)

Love seeing so many new faces on Skool. I thought it would be fun to hear how each of you approaches the key moments that shape your community. There is no right answer, just different perspectives we can all learn from. Yes, even if you’re new! I want to hear your take :) The most important thing to do when… • joining Skool for the first time is • inviting people to your community is • when new members join your community is • creating a paid offer is Whether you answer one or all of them, your take could be the exact insight someone else needs. (I’ll share my perspective later on tonight.)

It’s completely normal to bring habits over from other platforms.But Skool works differently, and some of those habits can quietly hold you back. If you’ve been wondering why things feel off… wondering why what used to work is not working now… or you’ve been stuck in planning mode trying to “get it right” before inviting people in… this video will help! It walks through 3 common mistakes that make it harder for your community to grow, connect, or feel alive. If the video helps, like and subscribe so you don’t miss future ones. And if you know someone just getting started, send it their way. 🫶 👇 Which one of these have you run into already? (Mine is in the comments)
