Small win... i think LOL wish me luck...
After much deliberation, I decided to split off one of the topics of my community into a second community so it could be more focused. It just made more sense to have it as such, given the standalone nature of the food-based topic. It didn't really seem to fit the DIY theme of the original community. I also made this one a paid community off the hop. I'm also planning to go pro for this new community soon, so I can offer the affiliate option. Just need to tweak the content a little bit before I do... OK, ramble over, I'm off to do some more tweaking. Have a great Wednesday, all!

@Cristal Vancarson well I've had my first for a while now and I find that as a free community, it's really hard to get people to engage as they haven't got a dog in the fight. I am hoping that by having a bit of an investment in the community any future members will engage a bit more. With my first Community none of the usual engagement tips seem to work...it's almost always the same one member liking and commenting...

I think for both my communities, it would be this one... - A longer-form public-facing sales page: A page you can send the public to that is not as restrictive as your About page.
๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ Your hard drive is a graveyard of unread PDFs.
Be honest. How many $97 courses have you bought that you never opened? You are hoarding "Information" hoping it turns into "Transformation." It wonโ€™t. Information without execution is just cognitive clutter. At Unlock the Collective, we don't sell you more tactics to put on the shelf. We act as Cognitive Engineers to help you build the internal operating system required to actually use what you know. We replace "Motivation" (which fades) with "Mechanics" (which scale). If you are done collecting files and ready to start building assets: ๐Ÿ‘‡ Check out Unlock the Collective and join the build.

honestly, none because I don't have money to waste that way...now have i bought stuff that turned out to be garbage... absolutely. Last thing was last month and was a library of ebooks, almost all of which were poorly written and formatted as if they were done by a non english speaking 5 year old using AI blindfolded...
How badly will it?
@Shannon Boyer how badly will it mess with your church stats if I were to start out monthly for say 3-4 months then upgrade to yearly? I want yearly... my bank account is saying no... lol
