You guys I'm finding it hard to find the words to type, I'm shocked in the best way possible. After praying I had a fit of inspiration to build a new community based on a unmet market demand. Like lightning I stopped thinking about what I want or even what I'm passionate about and instead decided to look for what I thought Skool/Skoolers needed. I'm not ready to talk about it here yet as even with it still being framed out already I'm getting member requests! That's the part I do want to talk about here. The fact that this community isn't even fully built and I'm already getting member requests, referrals, and offers to collaborate tells me I struck a nerve. None of that would have happened if I stuck with just what makes me happy or what I'm passionate. I put the needs of others above my own and decided to fill a need I saw rather than one that would strictly serve me. Now I have unbelievable momentum and it's not even finished! So what is an unmet market demand you see? Where are people experiencing pain or problems that you could solve or at least alleviate? Let this be your encouragement, just do it! All you've ever wanted is on the other side of helping others get everything they want! P.S. I'm not saying I have 0 passion for the new topic of the community but it's an overlooked skillset that honestly didn't occur to me. This revelation didn't come until halfway through the build!

Maybe it’s because I just started intermittent fasting and I’m hangry but I’ve been frustrated this morning. There’s a post in Skoolers from a new owner asking for advice and I noticed that in large part the advice was unhelpful. “Keep at it” “Play the long game” “Stay engaged” “Be human” In itself this advice isn’t bad but it’s just not practical. The asker is wondering what they need to do. I was shocked no one was talking about the fundamentals. What problem or pain do you solve? Why is it a problem? How big is that market? Where does that market spend its time? Who is your ideal customer? How do you solve it? What’s that journey like? How do your clients/members work with you? If you’re unclear in these things you won’t attract or keep customers/members.
