It's time for you weekly infusion of data along with an update on our cool contest of the month! If you are new here, reporting on the behind-the-scenes of the CLASSIFIEDS is something that I do each Monday by request of the members. We are in the middle of a referral rush (Dec 28-Jan 28) and it is not too late to join in. The top three people to make the most referrals in the month will win pinned posts. First place wins 72 hours, second place wins 48 hours, and third place wins 24 hours. Here are the numbers: Number of Members: 1100 (+47) Number of Premium Members: 193 (+4) Percentage of members who are Premium : 17.5% (-0.3%) About Page Conversion: 26.5% (+0.5%) Discovery Ranking in Money: #37 (-4) Discovery Ranking Overall: #105 (-4) Ranking in ProveWorth Top Rated: #1 Highest Activity Day: 1620 (-534) Lowest Activity Day: 769 (-129) In full transparency, it was not the healthiest of weeks this past week. Activity was down and we slipped in Discovery as a result. Perhaps you were all as busy as I was getting the year kicked off on the right foot! The greatest news of the week was that we have started to receive your reviews on ProveWorth and are currently ranked #1 in both the Most Reviews category and the Top Rated category. Thank you so much!!! Rating high in any kind of Discovery is a way for us all to enhance our visibility and get more eyes on our communities and businesses, so I would highly encourage you to leave a review if you have received value from being in this group. On the other hand, if you are not receiving the value you had hoped and you are thinking of churning (or you have already churned from Premium), please send me a DM and let me know what is missing or how the community could better meet your needs! I'm always listening. Referral Rush Rankings: @Katya McEwen 8 @Diana Frank 5 @Heather Di Rocco 5 @Nick Nebelsky 5

You might have seen that @Matthew Burns new website ProveWorth has gone live, and is currently registering new communities as well as accepting reviews. What is currently blowing my mind is that the CLASSIFIEDS is #3 in the Top Ranked category!!! And it's all because of you. I'm so grateful not only for your kind comments but also just for taking the time to rate and review this community. One of the great things about ProveWorth is that, like the CLASSIFIEDS, in is public and searchable so that means that ranking high on the site can really help with visibility and growth. On that note, if you have found value here and would like to help us stay at the top of the rankings so that we can all grow and be found easily by more amazing people, please leave your review here. And if you'd like more information on what Matthew is doing, you can see his post here.

It’s our favourite time of the week! IN THE COMMENTS BELOW…. For #FriendFriday, recommend a Skool group or program that is not yours that you think would be valuable for the group. Then, send your friend a message letting them know you mentioned them here. 😊 Provide context and not just the link, please This is the only place where affiliate links are okay!

From Dec 28 - Jan 28, we are holding a friendly, fun competition to see who can make the most referrals to the Classifieds. It's good-natured way to grow the group together so that we can all win! More members = more visibility = more growth. The grand prize is a 72-hour pinned post, second prize is a 48-hour pinned post, and third prize is a 24-hour pinned post. If three people tie for first place, there will be no second and third prizes - they will all get 72-hour posts. It's still anyone's game, so get in there! Even if you don't have Skoolers in your own group (members must have their own active Skool group), you may still be in other groups with Skoolers who are looking for enhanced visibility, feedback, community growth, and an amazing group of people to connect and collaborate with. Don't forget to use your personalized invitation link, which can be found in the right sidebar under the current active members. Oh! And remember that this is an affiliate link, so you earn a 30% commission if your invitee upgrades to premium or VIP (coming soon). Here are the standings: @Nick Nebelsky 5 @Heather Di Rocco 5 @Diana Frank 5 @Jake Hill 5 @Paulo Costa 4 @Heather Wilson 4 @Katrina Wright 3 @Ivan Ivanov 3 @Kat Oakley 3 @Mona Weathers 3 @Julie Nelson 3 There are too many people with 1-2 referrals to report on, but you are all still in the running. Let's do this together!
