Most people fail when they go all in on Skool, and they do not even realize why. After talking with multiple people who are "all in" or running Skool communities full-time, I have noticed a pattern among those who continue to succeed and those who do not. You need systems. If you do not have structure, you will always be reacting instead of growing. Chaos does not scale. You need more than enough. Once you hit a number that gives you a little breathing room, keep going. Stopping too soon keeps you trapped in survival mode. Every lost client feels like an emergency. You need enough stability that losing two or three clients does not send you into panic mode, tensing your shoulders and clenching your jaw thinking, I need to do something ASAP. You lose momentum because you think comfort means security. It does not. That desperation is a business killer. It clouds your judgment. It makes you take on the wrong clients. Worst of all, it repels the right ones. People can sense when you are operating from scarcity. Instead of bringing in the right fit, you chase anyone willing to say yes. And that only makes the cycle worse. Do not sit there watching the clients or opportunities you still have, waiting for signs they might disappear too. That mindset will sink you faster than losing a few deals. Instead, use the gaps to go harder on outreach and nurturing. Waiting is not the answer. Bringing in more people is. And when you do, aim higher. Whether you own a community or support one, you have to think bigger. Entrepreneurs pay their own retirement, health care, and everything else. If you are not setting yourself up for stability now, you are setting yourself up for stress later. If you are there right now, know this is not a callout. This is a wake-up call. This applies to both community owners and supportive roles. Do not get complacent. Be honest. Have you ever let things slip and paid for it? What did it cost you? What did you do next? 👇 If you have ever been here, share your experience. Someone reading this might need that lesson today.

Super happy to share that I have my first paid client! 🥳 Had a call with the owner on Wednesday, went really well and we agreed terms and a price. Sent him the contract and payment link and... nothing... 🦗🦗🦗 All went quiet for a couple of days. Until Sunday, when he sent me a message and we got on another call. He expressed his concerns with my lack of social media presence around my work and my newness to the platform - completely valid and fair. So I took him through some of my previous work & proof of my claims and we were able to get everything squared away on that call. Scope of work is very wide, including engagement, reactivation, onboarding, conversion, moderation and some projects for $1,500/m, but for my first Skool client I'm v happy with that 💸 @Jenna Ostrye, her Clarity Call and this community have been a big part of me getting this W, so thank you to her and you guys for your support! 🚀 (Ps if you haven't booked your Clarity Call yet btw, do it now!) Posting this so others can get some motivation. Let's gooooo! 🔥🔥

You are going to see a lot of new changes happen in Skool, especially with the Skool owned communities. Skool Community & Skool Games are merging into Skoolers. You will have to be an owner of a community to be in there and you will be removed if you're not an owner. (We can discuss what this means for supportive roles, if you'd like. Comment if you do.) This change has been in the making for a bit and it's here to stay. So let's look for positive ways to change perspectives if there is any negativity around the change. (Change happens and it's not fun for some.) Affiliates is going to for sure be here March 3rd. There is a launch party. Try to be there. If not, I will make sure to have a recap at some point. (People in Mastermind be ready for a call following the launch party.) Skool News is going to be LIT! 😎 It'll be a classroom in the Skoolers community. 👇 Questions, Comments, Concerns, Just wanna share something? 👇

Final Edit: This is no longer available. Please look for recent updates and just use this post as education for how offers were made. EDIT for current info: March 3 to 9: Price increases to $199/m then on March 10: Final price jump to $299/m When big changes are coming, it is smart to step back and look at the bigger picture. With affiliates rolling out soon, I saw a missing piece in my plan and found a way to make it easier for you to make money on Skool. Admins to Admins Mastermind worked well for most, but some needed a more relaxed way to start. I want to make sure everyone has a space that fits where they are right now. Some are ready to jump straight into Mastermind. Others want more tools, more structure, and a way to build confidence first. So I am adding a middle community to bridge the gap. This makes sure no one feels like they are stuck between two steps. Because Mastermind is not for everyone. I only have so much time to give, and I want the people in there to get the help they need. This is a tight-knit space where you are surrounded by others who want to succeed with you. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻? Admins Mastermind is staying the same, but the price is increasing to $299/m. If you join before the price goes up, you lock in the lower rate and get access to the middle community too. 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙡𝙨𝙤 𝙖𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙝. 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲 - This week: Current price is still available - March 3 to 9: Price increases to $199/m - March 10: Final price jump to $299/m March 10 is also when the middle community launches. Admins Mastermind members will be auto-invited as part of their membership. 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱 This week we are focusing on getting everyone set up for success with affiliates. I have also included videos in this post so you can hear directly from members what their results are like inside. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜𝘀 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗔𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘀? Admins is staying. Things are shifting, but you’ll still have a monthly call, a live-streamed podcast episode each month, and clarity calls as long as possible. Community support isn’t going anywhere.

I've spent the last few months going through growth operating coaching programs, and the free clarity call with Jenna was WAY MORE enlightening! I finally have a clear roadmap to $3K per month, then $5K+ per month. If you haven't already booked it, I highly recommend it. One thing Jenna did for me was increase my belief that earning a substantial income from growth operating isn't difficult at all once you master the basics! Thank you @Jenna Ostrye
