I found a Reddit post about Skool... and I had to reply
I think I can try to shed some light. Skool is seen from everyone, and marketed as a way to get finacial freedom. If you have suybscribed for free to some courses is because there is a thing "freemium" or something like that, that allows users (Skoolers) to see the courses that are free and upgrade to more indepth courses that are here (not forced down your throat), for you to get more value, or maybe the free courses are good enough for you to just kickstart what your goals are. Now. Yes, I am on Skool, and I can tell you that this is a massive amount of work. You have to engage with the community, and find a way to get people on your community (free courses), and engage on a constant basis (exausting), then... (when that "when" is I have no clue), comes the time to get cracking on paid; where you add more value for the "bucks" that you could potentially get. It's a full time job, it's tough and Skool does not come cheap. So if you are clueless on how to engage with people; if you have no clue how to grow a community; if you don't know how to attract paying Skoolers, no matter your skills, the road to "financial freedom" is so steep and so long that you might quit before the time comes. I am in that category, no matter what I do, nothing seems to move. Nothing at all. I'm talking about feeling the break of inertia, nope, just crickets in the distance (yes, not even the crickets are close to my courses). Conclusion: For me (my honest opinion), no, Skool is not a scam or some crooked way to get some bucks from someone, it's something very expensive and very tough to get going, but for the ones that have a successfull community, it seems that financial freedome from the 9-to-5 seems to work. Me? No not even my family replied to the invite LMAO. Hope this helps! Now what is your honest take on Skool?

"... not even my family replied to the invite" OMG that is absolutely hilarious and I totally get it. Granted this is only my 4th day of knowing about the existence of Skool but I don't really see this as a scam. I think you do have to self-moderate in terms what's right for you, your interests and your budget. I see some $100+/mo communities and I'm like - sorry, hard pass there. But then I see there's like 1k members in those high ticket rooms and I think, okay there are people getting some value out of that. I also think it's another one of those revenue streams that looks a lot easier than it really is to get up and running which you brought up in your OP. All I can say is my hat is off to you Sergio and I'm really glad you did this and I'm glad I found it.

Hi @Sergio Spadavecchia and thank you for this amazingly creative community you have going on here. I'm in Orange County, CA and I'm new to Skool and fell in this rabbit hole through a YouTube video on automating my Davinci workflow using AI. I'm a photographer from the old days when there were photojournalists working at newspapers. Good times back then. These days I do corporate/commercial/portrait and event photography and film making. Both your website and S1E1 video absolutely and completely resonated with me on levels I can't even begin to describe. I've been searching my soul for visually creative outlets and hopelessly going in circles unable to neither pinpoint nor focus a direction that truly mattered to me for fear of not producing the quality of work I would want my name attached to. Really looking forward to exploring this community and meeting like-minded creatives that I can learn from and inspire in return. I haven't even read most of your posts yet nor any of the class material and yet I'm overwhelmed with this sense of "There's a reason I'm here". Thank you again for this and everything this turns into.
