After 10 years of nothin on their YouTube channel, they came out with this... Have a wonderful Sunday (night?) 😂

...so I found this exercise "What's Cool About YOU" that's going to make you WAY more interesting to talk to here in our Skool Communities. Seriously. I got this from Sean Stephenson (the three-foot-tall giant, may he rest in peace)... ....and, again, it's called "What's Cool About You?" Here's the deal... ...when we meet people in Skool communities, we do the boring stuff: "I'm a course creator" or "I run a marketing agency" or whatever. YAWN. 🥱 But what if you could share the WEIRD, COOL, RANDOM stuff about yourself that actually makes people go "Wait, WHAT? Tell me more about that!" That's what this exercise does. It helps you remember (and share) the stuff you've done or experienced that you normally wouldn't mention... but which opens the door to WAY deeper, more fun, and more intellectual conversations. ...because let's be honest... nobody remembers the person who said "I do Facebook ads." But they DEFINITELY remember the person who said "I once trained myself to become #3 in the world at footbag" or "I have a street dog in India named Scooby who's in charge of 12th Road." 😂 HERE'S THE EXERCISE: Write down everything that's COOL, WEIRD, INTERESTING, or UNIQUE about YOU. Not your business accomplishments (boring). YOUR life accomplishments. YOUR quirks. YOUR stories. Some examples to get you started: - "I was a vegetarian for 25 years" (then went back to eating meat like a savage) - "At twelve years old, I won a silver medal in sailing in the Norwegian championship" - "I became one of the biggest party promoters in San Francisco" - "I pet or talk to ALL dogs I meet on the street... because I know they need love" - "I was in the Army and became the second-best dog handler... with a BRAND NEW dog that had never been trained" (the winner had a dog that had been there for 6 years... just saying 😏) Or maybe you've got stuff like: - "I can solve a Rubik's cube in under 2 minutes" (okay, that's not impressive, but if it's under 30 seconds, NOW we're talking) - "I once ate 47 tacos in one sitting" (don't judge me) - "I taught myself to play ukulele during lockdown and now I annoy everyone at parties" - "I lived in a van for 6 months and loved every second of it" - "I can name every country in the world in under 5 minutes" (nerd alert)

Hey everyone, Just wanted to share what I've learned from reviewing hundreds of member applications and why some people get rejected (or even banned) from Skool communities. This might help if you're trying to join communities or if you're a community owner trying to figure out who to let in. Here's what I actually look at when someone tries to join: - Profile picture - This is huge. If it looks AI-generated, that's a red flag. If the face is cut off weird or I can't see the face at all, probably not approving you. I need to see a real person because it helps me quickly tell if you're legit or not. - Real name - If I can Google your name and find you on other platforms, you're probably real. Simple as that. - Social media links - If you have your other profiles linked, it shows me you're serious about Skool. Also, click your own links to make sure they work. You'd be surprised how many broken links I find. - Communities you're in - I check if you're in free or paid communities, and I look at your comments to see if you're actually participating or just jumping in to spam and leave. - The Mayor Bridges thing - If you have this set up, that's a green flag. It means you took time to fill out your profile. - Country and email alignment - If your country matches where you're actually joining from and your email matches your name, that helps. What NOT to do: - Don't put "Hi I'm new" in your bio - spammers do this - Don't put your phone number or personal email in your bio - Don't use a company name as your profile name if you want people to engage with you - Make sure your bio is grammatically correct (use ChatGPT if English isn't your first language) Here's the thing, this stuff doesn't just matter for getting approved. It affects how people treat you INSIDE communities too. People engage more with profiles that look like real humans. For community owners - if you're wondering why you're not getting engagement, check your profile first. If you're using some random image or your company name instead of your real name and face, that might be why people aren't connecting with you.

Task: To each sentence from Day 1 add some information on what your clients do to get what they want (this is usually the wrong thing). The thing might be: - Wrong advice that everyone is spreading - Common knowledge that is wrong or only works in specific situations - Good advice applied in the wrong way Paste your sentences + the additional information in the comments 👇 If you're using the tracker, check off your day here. When you're done, move on to Day 3

(This is for people taking part in the challenge.) Task: Pretend you are your ideal client and write a list of at least 3 things they want. But write it as if you were them (first person). Here are my examples: - I want to be better on video - I want to learn how to structure my presentation - I want to present better - I want to attract more members - I want my members to be more engaged - I want to start creating video content - I want to look better on video - I want to be more confident on video - I want to sound better on video - I want people to join my calls Paste your sentences in the comments 👇 Once you're done here, you can move on to Day 2
