Changes to the weekly group calls
Hey everyone, I need to make a few changes to the weekly group calls. Firstly, I will no longer be hosting two calls a week. Instead, only the one call. Reason for this change covered below.... Attendance for Wednesdays call at 10AM AEST each week has been good, which is great — and why I've decided to continue hosting the calls at that time. However, attendance rates for Fridays calls have been poor for at least the past 2 years. In many cases I've had only two or three people attend. Be mindful that I'm hosting these calls at close to midnight my time - which I wouldn't mind so much if attendance rates were better. Secondly, I will no longer be recording the calls. Why? When we moved from the old platform to Skool, I reviewed watch times and around 98% of the call recordings had little to no views. Thats not great. I also believe having replays available reduces live attendance — so there wont be any further recordings. Lastly, calls from here on will be capped at 60 minutes maximum. Some of the calls last year went for more than 2 hours, which I feel is way too long. The purpose of these calls is live interaction, clarity and momentum. They need to be focused, intentional and helpful in a way that provides value for everyone. So - having said that, there will be one call per week. It will be held Wednesdays at 8AM AEST. Calls will not be recorded. The 8AM AEST time slot should accommodate the vast majority of members across different regions. I understand not everyone will love the change. I’ve spent the past four years doing my best to accommodate everyone across different locations and time zones. But it doesn’t make sense to continue running two calls per week with such low attendance. If you want direct access, feedback and live discussion — Wednesday 8AM AEST is the time. Appreciate your understanding. PS - I want to say a very big thank you for those of you who show up week in week out - it means a lot!
