finally, we got something other than GB 😜 💥 BIG NEWS: Skool introduced native reviews! but please don't run deleting your profiles elsewhere, continue reading. ⚠️ UPDATE: i just realized that every community you left a review, has a link in that review, and when ppl click and join that community, i think they will be marked "Skool Network" and Skool will get 30% if GB is turned on 🤔 ℹ️ few things to note about reviews: - you can edit or delete the review that you've left. GOOD! - you can only leave 1 review per community. i can live with that - because you can edit your previous review. - your reviews are gonna be shown on your profile. so, if you are toxic and like to poo-poo on ppl, it will be visible. - owners and admins cannot leave reviews for their community - you can leave a review only after 30 days. make sense. - only paying RECURRING members can leave reviews (not free, not one-off). this sucks if your model is not MRR driven. - you can start leaving reviews and collecting reviews, but they will not be shown to NON-members. Skool wants to collect some reviews, and slowly turn them on (testing first), so that it does not damage your conversion rates. SMART! - if you offer incentives for review (courses, discounts, lollypops - Sam's words, not mine), you will get a BIG RED warning on your about page. this one is a bit shady for me... like, how would Skool know? are they checking DMs? posts inside my community? what about confidentiality? hm🤔 - more updates for this feature is coming. so, i hope they fix some of the things e.g. one-off paying members leaving a review now, the big question - should you focus on Skool reviews only now or not? thanks to Matt (founder of ProveWorth platform) who explained it very well in the video - go and check it out if you are member, if not - join his community, cause it worth it!

big question ppl. communities thrive on engagement. so, many ppl use Leaderboard levels as a bonus - price to motivate ppl to participate. i do not like it... cause it seems a bit manipulative. and it feels a bit fake. yet, i do use it, randomly. now, my question is... should i double down on it? - lvl 3 gets this - 30 day leaderboards leaders get this etc, etc. i understand the mechanics. and why it works. i just cannot decide if this benefits YOU. and my formula, is always: WIN-WIN-WIN: - i win - you win - your ppl win and i am happy to do everything (pretty much, no nudes involved), to achieve this formula. so, yes or no - let's make it simple. should i use leaderboard and active members for 7/30 days to give some bonuses.

i am planning to keep a tradition of inviting GREAT guest speakers every Tuesday to help us build our businesses. today, 11th August at 3pm UK, we have Justin - great friend, a mastermind buddy, and a great marketer, founder of Aligned Entrepreneur Network. Justin will talk about how your inner patterns drive outer business results, with a Gene Keys pattern map demonstration and a framework for building from who you actually are. i am very curious to learn more about Gene Keys and how to decipher them. as always, i will share the recording for 24hs for free and then move to the Premium Class - for more visibility, traffic and eventually, profit (more reasons to upgrade). join us today live today to ask questions and have fun together.
