🌟 Congratulations on becoming a part of our Partner Family, Michele Lefler here at Skool Events Daily. Michele has partnered with us to help our events get seen further across the Skool platform. Some conversations just flow from the very first minute… and my chat with Michele was definitely one of those. Michele and I hit it off straight away and quickly realised we had so much in common. I’m pretty sure we just about put the world to rights during our conversation 😂 There was plenty of laughter, a chat about Harry and Meghan (Michele has even read his book), Human Design (of course we did!), spirituality, all things a little bit woo, and a whole lot of exploring the “why” behind people and life. One of the things I loved most about Michele was her energy. She has that beautiful ability to make you feel like you’ve just pulled up a chair and joined a conversation with an old friend. And that is exactly the feeling she has created inside her community, The Porch. Michele describes herself as endlessly curious about people, ideas, and what makes life meaningful. She’s a librarian at heart — someone who loves learning, researching, connecting dots, and helping people find exactly what they need. Inside The Porch, Michele creates spaces for thoughtful conversations, learning, and connection through workshops, classes, meditation sessions, discussion groups, and virtual gatherings exploring topics like personal growth, money, spirituality, creativity, history, and lifelong learning. What really stood out to me was her belief that people don’t just come to events for information… they come to feel seen, find community, and connect with others who are also curious about life. And I think that sums Michele up beautifully. She creates a space where you don’t need to have all the answers. You just need to show up with curiosity, an open mind, and a willingness to join the conversation. So please join me in welcoming Michele and The Porch to Skool Events Daily. Pull up a chair… we’re glad you’re here. ☕✨

what if your business is built on someone else's blueprint? i keep meeting founders running a model that works beautifully - for a completely different person. today 3pm UK @Justin Yip is coming into Community Builders HQ to unpack why that happens. he'll map a live Gene Keys pattern read on the call, then give the framework for building an offer from who you actually are instead of who converted best on someone else's launch. honestly i invited him because i wanted the demo for myself. free, live, questions welcome. recording free for 24 hrs. are you joining?

For ages I assumed the best way to run an event was getting members to join my community first and then watch my presentation. Turns out, in my case, that's not actually the best way. I've tested this across a few different communities now, and the results have made me rethink how I run these. Worth me breaking down what I found and why this new method works so well?

TL;DR: - Tested QR code vs. demo-only in the same session last night. - QR code straight to a community = "Joined directly," no commission taken. Demo without a link, people found the community themselves via Skool = "Joined from Skool network," Skool took 30%. - If Growth Boost is on (it's on by default, Settings > Discovery), Skool takes a 30% recurring commission on any join it decides it sourced, including people who navigate to you inside Skool rather than clicking a link you gave them. - Always put an actual link or QR code in front of people. Never rely on them finding you themselves. Ran a session last night with two communities of mine in play. One part of it, I did a demo on screen, walked through the community, but never gave people a direct link or QR code. Anyone who wanted to join YouTube For Skool had to go and find it themselves inside Skool. Those joins came in tagged "Joined from Skool network," and Skool took its 30% commission. That's on me, and it's exactly the mistake I'm telling you not to make. Later in the same session, I put a QR code on screen linking straight to Skool Events Daily. People scanned, landed directly in the community, joined. Those show as "Joined directly." No commission. Worth saying, we keep Growth Boost switched off for SED, which is part of why that result held up so cleanly. Here's what Growth Boost actually does, straight from Skool's own help docs. It's two things bundled together. First, it pushes your community higher in Skool's internal search results for keywords your ideal members are already searching. Second, Skool spends its own money running off-site ads on your behalf, Meta and elsewhere, to bring in members you wouldn't otherwise reach. You don't pay for any of that upfront. Skool fronts the cost. The trade is commission, and this is the part worth understanding properly. It's not a flat fee for having the feature switched on. It's 30%, but only on members Skool's system decides it sourced. And "sourced" isn't just ads.
