There is something sitting inside you that is worth more than you think it is. The knowledge you have built, the way you see your niche, the thing people keep asking you about - that is the foundation of a community someone else is going to build if you sit on it long enough. You know there are people on here making over $100,000 a MONTH on Skool right?! 🤩 I started building on Skool because I realized the thing I kept explaining in DMs deserved a real container. A structured place where people could actually do the work together instead of circling the same questions alone. The community is the funnel. It qualifies people, builds trust, and converts, all at once, without a single ad. If you want to start building, here is the link to open your Skool community: Start your Skool community here If you have been thinking about starting yours and you are fuzzy on what it should actually be built around, I work with a small number of people to figure that out together. We figure out exactly what your community should be built around, design the full member journey, and build it into a Brand Playbook you can launch with confidence. Here is what that looks like.

If your community is growing but still depends on you to keep everything moving, that is usually a systems problem, not a motivation problem. I built a free Community Builder Diagnostic that shows which mode your community is operating in: - Chaos - Early Structure - Systemization - Compounding It takes about 3 minutes. At the end, you’ll get a personalized result, your weakest operating areas, and Calm Engine guidance for what to improve next. Take the diagnostic here: https://laurapaulina.com/diagnostic

I wish someone sat me down and told me these before I started posting like it was any other platform. 𝟭) 𝗗𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽 𝗖𝗧𝗔𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲’𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽𝘀. No “DM me.” No “link in bio.” No “if you want help." No "here’s my group.” I got banned/kicked from multiple communities early on bc I didn’t realize how strict this is. Be helpful. Be normal. Let your presence do the work. 𝟮) 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴. If you comment like a real person and actually help, people will click. So make your profile clean and obvious. What you do. Who you help. What to do next. That is it. 𝟯) 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝟭𝟬 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝟭𝟬𝟬 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀. Early replies keep a post alive. So write posts people can answer quickly. Then stay close and reply fast so it becomes a conversation, not a monologue. 𝟰) 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸. 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸. The fastest growth I have seen on Skool comes from making people feel seen. Comments build culture. Culture builds retention. Retention builds everything else. 𝟱) 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘀 𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗱𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. Pick one thing and never miss. Wins thread. Teardown day. Office hours. A weekly prompt. Whatever fits your style. Consistency is what earns trust. 𝟲) 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗯𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄. When you read a post ALWAYS like it, and ALWAYS give leave a comment. That does 2 things: - With the like you give the author a point to level up. - With your comment you give yourself a point (when people like it) Most communities (including Skooler Spotlight) give more perks as you level up, so be a dear, love the people around you, and they will love you back. If you are building on Skool right now: What is one mistake you made that you would save a new community owner from?

I had some amazing clarity on how I want to serve you better, and I created a whole system that helps you run your Skool community in under 60 minutes a week. - It uses the new and approved 2.0 Flywheel: Acquire → Activate → Engage → Refer. - It needs a new clean room to work in. The Calm Engine Room. - It will launch officially after the upcoming Event. It is for: 🔄 𝗙𝗹𝘆𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 - Learn how to turn the wheel in your community in under 60 minutes a week ⚙️ 𝗚𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀 - Teach mechanisms that work in your community that turn the wheel in others If you identify with one of these I would love it if you would hop in the waiting room NOW I'll be opening the door to The Calm Engine on April the 20th. That is the moment the upcoming Event kicks of. Only contributors of the event will be let in sooner. What do you think... Can you identify yourself with one of the above mentioned Skoolers? 1.
