Seriously looking for real third-party experiences here. So far, I'm not impressed. Telemarketing turns me off from the jump. I agreed to a meeting, and they asked me to watch their promo material first. The prep material consisted of a 25-brag claim with no factual, verifiable details, and the first video they had me watch in the classroom was an hour-long meandering diatribe that went nowhere. It looks and smells like every other get-rich-quick scam. Are any of my members able to vouch for them firsthand? Apparently, one of the admins is "Skool personality" Andrew Kirby, and he does their community intro video, which is supposed to lend credibility, but I don't care. Smells really fishy. I am not sharing their links here; I do not want to bring anyone else into a group that I do not trust. Also, using telemarketing seems really off-brand for Skool. It's outdated and no one likes it, so why are they interrupting my workday to try and sell me some ephemeral service?

Happy Shaturday to all of my wonderful creators in the community. BTW that makes me wonder....what should we call ourselves? Like a group nickname. Lady Gaga has her little monsters and The Creators Union has ________ Open to suggestions. I'll revisit this with a poll sometime.

If you haven't checked out our course, The Art of the Undead Story, you're missing out on a ton of great reference content. #Introduction- Words of the Undead This is just one of the videos included in the bonus reference material. Have you ever seen Romero's original "The Night of the Living Dead"? If not, you've been missing out, but you can go ahead and click on this video and enjoy the vintage horror treat, which is public domain, so I can share the entire film here! Enjoy!

Welcome to all my lovely fellow members. I want to get to know all of you more and have you get to know me. Post a message introducing yourself and tell us all more about you!

Hey guys. I’d love your advice and opinions. I want to make sure that The Creators Union is s fair, equal and valuable resource. Today I read a post in another community about making sure that your levels, content and options are an incentive, not a barrier for users to access valuable content. That is something I’m always concerned with. With the new tiers options, I thought it would be a great option, and allow me to create a level playing field where those who wanted to access VIP and Premium content, but couldn’t afford yo pay a monthly fee could access that content by being more active in the community and unlocking at a particular level. I know a lot of Skool is geared towards maximizing revenue or monthly income and often it’s about monetizing your hobbies and interests. That doesn’t resonate with me. I don’t care if I become a top MRR earner on Skool. Not at all. I want to teach and provide content that helps people. I was leery of the tier system before it was even live, because I didn’t want to create a class level system based on those who could afford higher priced content and who couldn’t. I’m still mot convinced that it won’t do that. Maybe I’m overthinking it. Maybe I should simplify things and just make all content and features available for one flat purchase price and unlockable at a certain level, so that anyone can unlock a feature with enough activity, or just pay once for content that they want, if they don’t want to put the time and energy to invest on activity participation. What do you think? What has worked in your own communities? What has your experience been with tiers and paid content?
