Please add free trials. Some kind of timer would be nice to see as well to add urgency. Maybe in their payment options even, a timer with an upgrade button perhaps. Or even a dynamic countdown that says: "1 day until you lose access" I'd really like to see this, just putting my vote in. Makes for a very nice parlay into the group especially as a bonus add on when you sell a course. @David Sekera and I had a fantastic conversation the other day about the power of free trials and I really wish Skool would offer this.
Now you can charge money for membership to your community! Skool replaces your landing page, order form, merchant account, and everything else — it does everything, end-to-end, seamlessly. You add a price, share a link, get members, and make money. Watch the video to see how it works. Questions? Check out this Skool payments FAQ. Enjoy 🎉
@Christian Tharp it hasn’t been confirmed yet from Skool, but it is such a heavily requested feature that I’m sure Skool will implement it in the near future
Sometimes you want your members to take action. For example: Introduce yourself and share a photo of your workspace, or... Play this song on the guitar and share a video of you doing it. Simple actions make your community more interactive and fun. Remember the ice bucket challenge? Action posts — Describe the action you want your members to complete. When somebody comments, the action will be marked as complete. Pinning posts to modules — Now you can pin posts to course modules to make them more practical and interactive. For example: Your first module could be "Welcome! Start here" and give a quick overview of how things work with a call to action at the end to introduce themself and share a photo. You can pin any post to a module, it doesn't have to be an action post. You could pin posts relevant to the module, or a post with the title: "Module XYZ - Questions/discussion here" and use it as a comments section. Your turn: Complete this action by telling us what you think?
Hi all, I'd love for somebody to sell me on Skool and why they feel it is a better platform than Circle for paid community building. I'm uncertain as to which one would be better so I'm just exploring my options and am erring on the side of Skool VS Circle. Just looking for the right info to tip me over. Thanks!
I think Circle is Skool's only competition. But when I tried Circle many months ago, it was so busy. Skool has such a simple & better UX/UI which is necessary when trying to teach the platform to my coaches for how to use Skool to run their entire fitness coaching business. I'm also here mostly because of Sam. The major pro for me of Circle vs Skool is the ability to offer trials and paywall courses. C'mon Skool, let's go! 💥🤑
Is there a way I can remove my community from discover? I get a ton of random people trying to join my community, which isn't relevant as my community is french and the people joining are english speaking service sellers.
Hello Landon, there is not a way to remove your community from Discover. I think the possibility for people to find your community easier outweigh people who are not a good fit for your community tho 🙂
New to skool, I run a service business and looking to move into one to many coaching. Happy to be here! Really like skool, You have built a great product.
Hello, it is indeed not possible at this time. I think the ability to change the name of the Classroom tab to a word of our choice at a minimum is priority.
1) Let us edit a post that's pinned in a module 📝 2) Let us edit a post and 'add action' ⚡️ 3) Change the name of the 'undefined' category to the category name that the post was given when created 🐣 Thank you in advance Team Skool 🙏
Hi Shawn, there is no automated way to currently do this within Skool. But it can be done manually... tediously but this is your option: 1. Member would complete the transaction at the one-time payment price 2. You or the member would then cancel their billing so that there was no further payments at that price 3. You would then remove them as a member of your community 4. You then change the price of your community to your monthly subscription price 5. Then, member would have to rejoin your community at the new monthly subscription price Not ideal, but it works :)
Is it possible to charge and entry fee + monthly recurring? I want to charge people a fixed amount to join the group initially and then charge a monthly recurring charge.
Are you able to enable a trial period for people to use your community, maybe with limited access, then it automatically charges them after the trial is over?
