In December at @Ryan Duncan’s direction, I took a scary as shit leap of Faith. I shut down my community of 750 to start from scratch. Here are some 45-day numbers. Slow, steady growth, a crystal clear ICP and quality people make a huge difference. You want someone to help you that comes with mad receipts, he's the guy. Stop thinking and start winning.

If the platform feels big or distracting, reduce the surface area. This week, spend less time scrolling and more time being useful in 3–5 communities related to your topic. Not dozens. Not the biggest ones. Just a few where you actually belong. Do that consistently and four things happen: 1. You carve out a clear position 2. People start to recognize and trust you 3. Members begin finding their way to you 4. Your activity log reflects real engagement This only requires 10 activities per day, done consistently. That’s how habits form. That’s how reputation is built on Skool. Where to find your activity log: Tap your profile photo (bottom right). Your activity log appears directly under your picture. If you want accountability, screenshot it and post it below.

GenX success (age 40-60) seems a bit more elusive than other age groups It’s because we didn’t grow up with this so it’s a new language to us. But there’s an advantage you have that GenZ can’t touch. So many don’t understand that your super power is that you have lived life. You’ve screwed up, gotten back up and you’re a fully formed adult. 🧠 Your experience is the authenticity and the magnet that makes the money. Problem 1️⃣: Decades of expertise but no idea how to package it. Problem 2️⃣: Tech paralyzes 😱 you. Every platform feels like it's built for 25-year-olds. Problem 3️⃣: You've tried courses before and never finished. Life got in the way. That’s why I developed the CK Circle.

It’s our favourite time of the week! IN THE COMMENTS BELOW…. For #FriendFriday, recommend a Skool group or program that is not yours that you think would be valuable for the group. Then, send your friend a message letting them know you mentioned them here. 😊 Provide context and not just the link, please This is the only place where affiliate links are okay!

Everyone tells you how to succeed on Skool… Let’s flip it. Here’s exactly how to FAIL miserably on this platform (and in the creator business in general): ❌ Never talk to your members. They joined — now let ‘em figure it out. ❌ Never promote your community. Just keep it your little secret and hope it goes viral by accident. ❌ Keep saying you’ll “scale once it’s bigger.” Because 10 people aren’t worth showing up for daily… right? ❌ Make your About Page long, cookie-cutter and so broad it attempts to apply to everyone (which means it speaks to no one). ❌ Quit after 3 months when it’s not blowing up — because obviously this doesn’t work and should be easy. I built a 760-person community from organic daily activity. No perfect setup. No huge following. No overthinking. And then …. I BLEW IT UP. 💥💥 Shut it down because it became CRICKETS and filled with uncommitted people. I started from scratch < 30 days ago. Smaller, faster, smarter and more selective. I asked people what they want instead of making a bunch stuff I assumed they did. What misconception did you have when you started a Skool and how has your thinking changed?
