Passion and charisma are overrated
[ROAST MY LESSON] 2 common excuses that keeps people from starting their own businesses are: - But I'm not charismatic enough - But I'm not passionate about that, I'm still trying to find my passion. Truth is, most businesses start not because someone was passioante about something. Instead they saw an opportunity on a problem and worked for the solution instead of just complaining about it. And a lot of people are not passionate about solving a specific problem. More often than not, the eagerness to solve it comes from anger and frustration, not passion. Now on charisma. I found out recently that you don't need TV host levels of charisma to have an online presence, to be good at sales, or to have people trust you. I stutter a lot, have a few speach impedments and have some insecurities about that. But somehow I landed a leadership position at a multinational company that involves doing a lot of presentations and trainings. And I was selected by phone calls where I didn't show my face because my notebook camera was not working. So they only had my voice and the things I said to choose me. So you don't need to be passionate about what you do. And you don't need to be charismatic. All you need to buld a business is the eagerness to solve a problem that will make people pay you.
Today's scores and little updates
Hey hi, guys. Here are the top 3 roasters for Roaster of the Week competition: - 1st: @Alexandra Alexa : 60 points Alexandra will help you learn how to stop self sabotage at The Growth Network! - 2nd: @Dr. Severine Bryan : 38 points Dr. Severine owns Wealth Warriors Community, a place for rebuilding credit, managing debt & gaining financial clarity. - @Steve Atencio : 30 points Steve owns Drafting Workshop, a great place for autocad and drafting guidance! Thank you for all the roasters who are keeping this community alive while I deal with a big move! ---------------------------------------- I'm taking some additional time preparing to establish myself at a new city. And I'm also working closely with a client who is leaving another community platform to join Skool. He is doing a complete rebrand to fit in a new business model. Skool is indeed one of the best community platforms out there and it's ridiculous what we can get for just 9 dollars. Even with the growth boost controversy, you can still get a lot of value from the features here. As soon as I'm established, hopefullly by the end of this month, I'll be back to the presence I had before, because I'll have family support and a more practical daily routine. That's it. Let's roast!
@Dr. Severine Bryan you did get 4x more points for roasting the pinned post. That's the reward for giving a roast to the posts that need more attention. And I wish a great recovery for your mother!
Check out the new ad guys, tell me what you think. Blaze Post
I think the stuff is ok..but, tell me what you think its missing. 😇 Publish Everywhere. Running a business already takes enough time. Writing the same post six different ways, logging into multiple platforms, and keeping everything consistent shouldn't be part of the job. Blaze AI is one of the most powerful AI marketing platforms available today. It learns your brand, writes content in your voice, and publishes across your connected social media accounts from one dashboard. The problem isn't the software, it's knowing how to use it effectively. That's where the Blaze Cross Post System comes in. The Blaze Cross Post System is my personal implementation framework for Blaze AI. It's the exact workflow I use to turn one link into a coordinated publishing system across your connected social platforms. You're not getting the beginner experience. You're starting with a proven implementation that removes the guesswork from day one. Instead of spending your trial figuring Blaze out, you'll spend it building a publishing system that actually works. Join Blaze Posts See how it works

Hey @Artworqq Kevin Suber Is this your own tool? You seeem to develop a lot of different stuff. I'd like @Toivo Mattila @Eric William @Manda Jackson and @Gary Boyd to check it out. The video is great, but the abrupt ending and the cut of him with an angry expression makes it look unfinished. A little editing would make it look better. The offer is amazing, but having some video recordings of it working, with screenshots of the same post across different platforms with one click would be a better sell than an AI avatar just talking. Show don't tell.
Lead Magnet roast
It's a lead magnet - delivered by skool. so i get their email and free membership when they hit my about page. the lead magnet is the AVATAR CHOOSER tool. its a pdf, short video and class. ideally, i get their email. then this gets them into my ecosystem of building their biz. The invite is to call me to work over their results which is an opportunity to upsell maybe, but 100% to over deliver on value. if they stop and don't' upsell, how can i make it better? if they will eventually upsell, how do i entice that strongly/well? https://www.skool.com/halcyon-land-5118/classroom/0c6893d4?md=2733abd957e34726807c0cf318138390
Hey @James Simmons sorry for the very late roast. Been very busy with the moving process. It's taking more work than I thought it would. I think it's quite clever to use an open community classroom as a way to host lead magnets you promote elsewhere. People are really sleeping on the feautres skool gives for 9 usd. Unlimited storage and unlimited native livestreams? I don't believe they will be able to keep up with this forever. @Laura Paulina does something similar I believe. Also tagging @Nick Nebelsky @Manda Jackson @Cristal Vancarson @Eric William @Gary Boyd as relevant roasters for this specific offer. I believe you could add at least a banner to make this page pop up more. Or embed the video instead of making it an external link. People talk about shortening the click ratio in order to get more engagement. So I would at least embed the video. The CTA for the next steps could also be put in the same page. On mobile people will have a harder time seeing there is another page, so I would put it at the bottom of the same one.
@James Simmons I just left the house that I was leaving on here and sold a bunch of stuff. But still got to move the remaining stuff across states, travel and prepare my appartment in the other city.
Roast my About Page...don't hold back, I can take it
I'm new to skool and this is my first attempt. I'm a big beliver in the 80/20 rule so if you think it's 80% there I would like to know that as well. https://www.skool.com/the-expert-society-5257/about
Hey Ian. Again sorry for the late roast. Tagging @Eliot Payne to check this out. He has an awesome marketing community that I make a point at participating every week in his live calls: The Marketing Common Room. Also tagging @Heather Boers and @Dr. Stephanie Murauskas for relevamt roasts. And also @Aimee Jardon for the sales part. The openning testimonial can work greatly, because it establishes your authority at the same time that explains what you do and I really like that approach. @Lion Fludd did that in video format. I also really like your image choices, they are simple and effective, not cluttered as most of the ones following the current AI banner trend. What I see lacking here is the "how". How are people achieving the things you promisse at the bullet points? Live calls, a gift 1:1 meeting with new members, recorded classroom content, regular posts that people can engage with? That's not very clear to me. And as I said here, if you don't give clear instructions on how people should engage, they hardly will.
