I have a bit of a technical question that I’d really appreciate your advice on please 🙏 I want to use an event as a lead magnet, inviting people to a free workshop, through facebook, email or other methods, in the hope they find it useful and want to sign up/pay to join my community. They will need to give me their email address in order to log on at the allotted time. My community is paid with a free 7 day trial. I would prefer to use a zoom link instead of making it a Skool call. If I set this up and invite them to that specific event, using the Invite tab on my Settings page, it says “These invite methods will grant instant access without purchasing or requesting membership.” So my question is: 1) Is it possible to use a Skool event in a paid community as a lead magnet? 2) Will I inadvertently give them access to everything? 3) If I make a zoom link, do I even need to get involved in Skool at all? Hope you more experienced Skoolers can help. Thank you 🙏

Whether it's a Networking and Business event or church or a local soccer match, or even a Skool community, how do you decide who to chat to? Do you just gravitate to the people you already know or are you strategic about who gets your time? I just listened to a great presentation from @Danielle Drew in another community and she answered a question about events with a great strategy to multiply your impact and do more with less: 1. Talk to the host/event organiser - they probably know more people there than anyone else so they're more likely to connect you to others. If you want to be their next speaker ask something specific like "How do you source speakers?" If you are a speaker, let them know you can stretch out time or cut things short if something happens so they know you're easy to work with and you've got their back. 2. Talk to the speaker - ask them where else you can hear them or how they get speaking gigs. Again, they might be able to open doors for you to get in front of larger audiences 3. Talk to someone with a camera - especially if you're the speaker - whether they have a professional photo/video person or you just ask a random, make sure you have someone who can document you speaking - if it's on Skool maybe they can take a simple screen shot that you can share later on socials and in your community.

I'm looking to simplify and experiment with a different model for Onliners. What is the one thing that if I took it away you would not find Onliners a valable experience anymore? It could be the free membership, the posts, the courses, the live calls, the community itself or a particular person - whatever it is - let me know!

I just logged in to Facebook and saw the latest Skool Ad was for Onliners! And even more exciting, it was next to Andrew Kirby’s Synthesizer ad. We’re officially Facebook famous, people!! 😂 Anyone else seen it?

Start a new community this weekend - get started in just 5 minutes - and don’t stop till you’ve made money. It’s amazing how much time is wasted thinking you’re not ready. The truth is you’ll never feel ready. You just need to do it before you feel ready. Do it now and don’t stop! https://www.skool.com/onliners-9041/classroom/5ad5713f?md=e829680b91dc4f2ab05fe31afa8d5f4c
