Let’s change it to Truth-Bomb Tuesday Most people don’t start a community because they think they’re not “expert enough.” They believe they need more credentials, more experience, more authority. Not true. You don’t need to be the top voice in an industry to lead a community. You only need to be one chapter ahead. A simple rule: 1,000 hours of doing something makes you a subject-matter expert to someone just starting. You don’t need to know everything — just more than the people you’re helping. Think about Frank Abagnale in Catch Me If You Can. As a high school student, he taught college classes by staying one chapter ahead of the students. He didn’t have the full degree — he just had the next lesson figured out. That’s all leadership really is. Community builders aren’t perfect experts. They’re guides who turn around and help others walk the path they’ve already covered. So stop waiting until you feel “ready.” If you’ve logged the hours, your voice already matters. What’s your 1,000 hour-thing? If you don’t know yet, maybe I can help.

It's that time of the week where you get to give a shout out to a friend's community that you think is amazing or valuable.

With so many people finding this incredible platform, differentiating yourself from others in your category is key to success. Most times, that’s as simple as speaking like a 3rd grader. It’s not about sounding important, smart or making vague promises that can’t be measured. Everyone else is doing that. Take it from guy who’s been on the Skool platform for almost 3 years and LONG BEFORE it was cool. After closing in on 150 one-on-one calls, that is the common theme that has emerged that slows people down. It’s either the name or About Page description. Less is More. Understood is better than Cute. You never want visitors to say “what the F*** does that even mean?” If you have to explain it, you’ve lost them already. Make sure you have keywords in your name that people will be searching for. That’s how you’ll get Skool traffic. My community name has changed 3 times as a result of getting that wrong, and constantly tweaking the About Page to get it right. Alex Hormozi has taught me everyone needs to be able to answer these in a 10-second elevator pitch. What problem are you solving? Who are you solving it for? How are you solving it differently? Drop your answers to these questions below so we can all help each other improve.

Every really great Skool community has these including Skoolers and Skool itself This is how you go from a place to a place people feel deep connection for and identity strongly as a member.

One of the most important things I've learned since becoming an online entrepreneur is that the most important thing you can do to grow your business is to build relationships. Many of us (myself included) have rushed to promote our groups and services that we care so deeply about. And it only makes sense - we are excited about what we are doing! Today, I'd like to invite you to take a step back and introduce yourself to the group by answering the following questions: 1. Who are you personally? 2. Who are you professionally? 3. What is something you love doing outside of work? 4. What is something surprising about you? As you open up and make more connections, you will find that not only are people more interested in what you do, but they will also be more interested in helping you make connections with other people they know! 😉 After you introduce yourself, please scroll through the other introductions and add a comment to someone you have something in common with or would like to know more about. 😊 Please add your introduction in the comments below! ⬇️
