When starting your community you need to consider what happens after someone joins. I see a lot of posts from people asking soooo many questions on how to perfect their product (community) because they believe they need to have 1,367,482 features and other things that no one really needs. Look at Skool for example; we are the community, we offer feedback, skool listens and adds and changes as the platform grows, which in turn creates a better product. (so start your community and get the members to shape it for you) And this is great, but I see so many of you struggling with "Where do I start"? And here is how I'm doing it with communities I'm running! 1. A welcome post This post should include something about yourself and invite members to introduce themselves as well. A great framework for this is; Where are you from? What brought you to this community? What is something that you are struggling with? You want to invite your members to express themselves with what they are struggling with, it helps push the boundary of comfortability and in turn starts the first step of trust. Create a safe evironment for them to do this and members will stay, 2.We create a 'quick win' classroom. This is designed to quickly add value and guide our new members into creating a new habit with the features skool gives us. It also gets them an instant return on the money they have just spent to now be in your community. 3.Craft your rewards. So many groups aren't leveraging this feature. Heck even the wizards of skool itself aren't even leveraging their own features. We've crafted our leaderboards in a tiered structure, intrically placing leveraged value such as paid digital products and other products that members can get for free. And that's why, as shown in the photo below, we only have 35% of members still in level 1, and higher percentages in all levels up to level 5. We aren't in the business of just 1 or 2 members striving for a high level, we want all members going for it because then, and only then do we have a community ALL members are;

I would LOVE the chance to have a category for my group where I can add select members.

Is there a planned feature to Schedule Posts? I like to schedule posts ahead of time sometimes. @Sid Sahasrabuddhe
