Transcript: Welcome to Simple Money Saturday here in the Wise Skool Community Hub. I'm Wendy S. Wiseman of Wiseman Integrative, your goofy guide here. Ending the call instead of sharing the screen. That's what I'm laughing about. Silly, silly human misclicks. Oh, we are here to talk about how Skool can help you enjoy simple money with the six simple steps. S-I-M-P-L-E. And then the added framework for money to help you keep that going, keep that growing. Yes, Simple Money Saturday. It's much more enjoyable than all those spam SMSs you might be receiving like I am. Okay. So what is simple money? Simple money method. It's just two frameworks, S-I-M-P-L-E-M-O-N-E-Y to help you get wise and enjoy life with Skool. Skool works for your business 24-7. So you don't have to be working on your business 24-7, right? Skool works for your business 24-7. And I'm here with the simple steps for you to build that sustainable support so that you don't have to be scrambling. I've been on that revenue roller coaster. The highs, the lows, the I don't know, it's the ups, the downs, the drag me arounds of small business revenue cycles, right? I've been a massage therapist, a fine arts home decor crafts person, maker, and I've done a lot of different things. And it's no fun. Those cycles of drought, right? Where you don't know if you're going to make it through, if you're going to have food tomorrow, if you're going to be able to pay your employees, right? There's so many different scenarios. Even Alex Hormozy talks about this. People pull out of contracts. There's all kinds of flux and change. And some of us get into it for the rush of that. And then it just, you know, it can tear you apart. So Skool is a wonderful tool to be using. It's not just an e-learning platform. Its goal is helping a billion people find community, not create online courses, find community. That means connect around a certain topic, whether that's an interest or an outcome or a blend of the two, right? I've started well over a hundred communities here in the last two and a half years. And I've helped hundreds of other community owners over the years with getting going, getting out of your own way to get going, keeping it simple to get going. I myself have fallen into the traps of the tips, techniques, templates, and toolboxes that overwhelm you so that you don't really end up making anything because you're so busy consuming this person's advice and trying these things that aren't really aligned with you and how you operate. So it never gets started. And then you feel like failure, right? You're not a failure. It's just being a silly human over-complicating things, right? Keep it simple. Start here with me, your expert community catalyst, online community expert, and the Skool quick start specialist. I offer this one day profitable Skool quick start for small businesses, established business owners, creatives, such as authors, artists, musicians, studios, galleries, publishers, and just your average mom and pop shop here in town, right? I'm also creating connection hubs for local communities where the local businesses can connect with one another and connect with the right people without the ads and algorithms on other platforms that can just choke you out, throttle you. Your people never see things. If they do, it's not in a timely, relevant manner, and it's surrounded by loads of distractions. So if you'd like a clear, clean container to connect with the right people, Skool is the place to be. And you can make your Skool whatever you want it to be. It doesn't have to be like anyone else's. We can hop in here to discover communities and see all sorts of trending communities, lots of AI, organic customer business stuff, right? AI, AI, scale your business. Health is looks. You got to look good, people, right? Growing on YouTube, very popular now. Beyond the headlines. So look at this. This is completely different than anything I'm used to seeing here. We watch the news, explain the news, then plan and prosper. So interesting. Yeah, so I highly advise skipping the news at all times, and it looks like this community can help you strategize your wealth without consuming that horrifying stuff that they spout on the news. You never know what you're going to find when you browse the trending communities here in Skool Discovery. Spicy Mama. Yes, AI. Again, AI. Record sales month. Lots of money, business, and sales. You can see they're $19 a month, $7 a month, $39 a month. And there's some that are like $5,000 a month, $1,600 a month. The top earners are in that kind of range. As a Skool community owner, you have access to this leaderboards where you can see in the Skool community who the top earners are. Logan Sandoval recently broke that first milestone of a million dollars monthly recurring revenue, and he does a blue-collar business accelerator, helping small businesses, local home services, and things have successful, less stressful businesses. $700,000, $443,000 per month. Now, the top three are all in this range, $1,950 per month, $1,700 per month, and about $1,600 per month. 852 members at $1,600 per month. I'm sure not all of them are paying members, maybe not all at that full rate, but it gives you an idea of what's possible. Of course, there were also those $7 a month communities, and there's loads of free communities. You can see here that I'm not making anything with this public portal community, and it's advising me to grow my MRR by $2,995 to get the Clover. So I guess I'm making $5 somewhere on affiliate with this wise Skool community hub. My money comes through my other Skools, but this one is here set up. A lot of PayPal links, I run through this instead of Skool MRR. So the money goes directly to me instead of getting recorded on the leaderboards. But I have other communities for that. So yeah, the Skoolers community is the community for Skoolers, Skool community owners, private club for Skool owners, building communities together, very exciting stuff. This is my public portal, more information hub than community. It's the wise Skool community hub. I do reviews of the Skool news, keep you up to date with what's going on. And of course, talk about this simple money method for small business owners, creatives, community leaders to create a connection hub on Skool. Yeah, there you go. However, if you decide to join this community and start contributing with posts, comments, engagement, interactions, putting your two cents in, then that boosts your visibility because public portals are crawled by search engine indexers. And that means that you become a more relevant response for them to offer to people searching in search engines or AI, because you're seen active in various places around these certain topics, you become more relevant and more likely to be suggested. So I highly advise joining. Of course, if you'd like my expertise applied to you and your Skool, there are a few plans for hotline mentorship, access to this knowledge, wisdom, and skill applied to you and what you're doing. None of this generic template stuff. I just have these six simple steps which guide you through what to do. And you can see if you come here to the classroom, we have the simple six session for a hundred dollars, the simple six Skool workshop. And where did it go? I passed over it, didn't I? Let's have a cup of coffee. Maybe. Oh, there it's right in front of my face. The Wacky Skool Building Quickstart, the done 41 day profitable Skool quickstart. Yes, I need to change the title of that. Anyhow, we're here to talk about simple and soon we'll be reopening the standalone community for the simple money Skool workshop. Right now I'm helping people work through these six simple steps and it's simple. If you have caught any of these previous episodes, you know it is super simple. Here I can show you start, ignite, magnetize. I'm using mobilize now to create that movement that does magnetize people to your audience or to your community offering. The path to progress and lead and enjoy. So essentially it's all about just setting the basic foundations. That's what the WISElife formula is all about. We're about setting the basic foundations from which you can springboard off into any fads or templates or tricks or techniques. I guess it's not in this community. I was looking for the WISElife formula and I thought it would be there. It could be down here. Skool's having a hiccup. Please hold. I'll stop screen sharing and just talk to you then. It's simple. Let me walk you through it. Talk you through it. I need more slides. Stretch. Make way. Open up. Yes. Relieve some of that tension and start. That's it. Step one. Start. Set up. Set up takes like 30 seconds. Less than a minute. Yeah. You can have a fully functional, appealing Skool in under an hour. I also offer do it yourself. Done with you and done for you services. If you're interested in that. And that's the key. So many people just hem and haw and wait and they don't start. Start. Start. That's step one. It's so simple. Start. Set it up. You can always delete it if you decide you don't want it. I've demonstrated that on past sessions here. I've shown you how I built one just on a whim and then how I take it down. It's so simple. There's nothing to be afraid of. I is ignite. You ignite by inviting. You get this party started, right? You got to invite people. You just stand here and go, where is everybody? Well, did you invite anybody? No. Well, nope. Does anybody know about it? No. Well, how are you going to have a party if nobody knows about it? Standing in the corner all by yourself, right? So you got to, you got to ignite by inviting, invite and greeting them when they come in. Yeah. Hi, I'm so glad you showed up. Yeah. And then mobilize their experience. Make it clear how to move through. Yeah. That's what makes it magnetic. These fun things to do when you arrive. You don't just plop into the sea of information or sea of noise, chatter, babble, right? That you experience on a lot of social feeds. Something meaningful, entertaining, that makes them want to come back. That's magnetic. Makes them want to come back with friends. Good stuff. And a path to progress along. Right? So you're not just plopped into the sea of information or chatter and have no clue where to go. Like, here I am. That's why big festivals, conventions, fairs will give you a guide and a map like here so that you don't just go, what is this and run away, turn away, run away. It's too much. A plan to progress that keeps the experience enriching and level up. Yeah. A plan to progress that keeps the experiencing enriching and helps them level up. That's the L. Did you realize we've gone through the S-I-M-P and we're on the L already? We're about to hit the E, which is enjoy. But back to the L. Level up, lead. We'd like to create community-led containers here that maintain their liveliness, their activity, even while you go have a vacation so that you're not chained to your business. Remember, we're talking about how Skool works for your business 24-7 so your business can be working for you 24-7 so you can enjoy your healthy, wealthy, wise life. Yes, have a life, not just a business. Right? So by creating these community-led connection hubs where there's activity without you always talking, talking, talking to, to, to, at, at, at, people are talking with one another and about you and how wonderful your work is, how wonderful working with you is, and how great it is they feel after working with you. Right? Getting the idea here? But it can be lively even while you step away for a day or two or maybe even a week. Yeah? That's the goal here. Simple, sustainable connection hubs that thrive and help your business keep alive, keep you off that revenue roller coaster so that E, you enjoy and expand. Right? Your business grows. You enjoy this expansive growth. Skool now has something called Growth Boost where they are advertising for the communities. One of the biggest headaches of online marketing is figuring out, learning how to advertise or learning how to not get ripped off by the people saying that they'll promote your stuff. Skool is just incredible about creating these new features and keeping the platform incredibly, I know I'm using incredible a lot because it is, it's incredible. It's amazing. It's, yay for the Skool-verse. But, but seriously, Sam talks about how he could have a garage full of Ferraris, but he hires the best engineers instead, the best engineers instead to create this. I mean, we've got 11 languages and it is now becoming auto-detect so that it's end-to-end experience from the social or the search feed to the Skool community. It's all in a person's native language without them having to toggle to change the language. Now the videos have captions and transcripts in that language. Global fast payouts, global currencies. It's absolutely astounding. I used a different word than incredible, didn't I? But seriously, growth boost, you can slide it up for more traffic. You can slide it down for less traffic, depending on how much profit you want to give to receiving the traffic. And there's another secret project they announced this week. I can't wait to see what that is. The last one was reviews, which are now showing up on Google often before the creator's YouTube website or social or Skool community. Now these incredible reviews. I have a wonderful review from Lauren Messina over on the Enjoy Simple Wise Life community, where I share daily happiness reminders, relevant reminders for resilient rebels to keep going, keep growing and keep it simple, super simple, keep it super simple. Yeah. So let's go over it again, the simple six. And keep in mind that I'm available to help you apply this to your Skool building experience, your Skool growth experience, whether you're just starting a new school, whether you have a Skool that's kind of started, you set it up, but it hasn't really started. It's kind of flatlined or stagnant, or you just want it to grow. Help me make this do something. I work with a lot of people like that. It's a very common for that, that first, oh, this is so exciting. And then the 16, 30 members and you're like, uh, nobody's doing anything. You know, there's, there's these common cycles that creators experience with their communities. And I'm here to help. So hit me up in the DMS or book a one-to-one at connect.wisewithwendy.com. Now I'm also helping established Skool owners who've got fabulous communities, boost their growth, boost efficiency score. So in other words, optimizing to maximize growth. And we apply these six simple steps. We go back, we look at the basics. How is your onboarding your packaging? Andrew and Sam talk about this every week. Make your group better, improve your packaging. Is it clear who it's for, what it's for, what you're going to do? Is it clear? If it's for you, if it's clear that people will click, they will join once they join. Is it clear what to do now that they're here? What do they do? Where do they go? Do they get overwhelmed and bolt? Right. Is it like walking into Ikea for the first time? Yeah. You know, and then we go through each of these steps sometimes over and over and over again in the six week series. Sometimes I have to go through these a few times with someone, right? As Sam talks about polishing, right? They polished discovery search and now they're polishing growth boost. They're on growth boost version two. He shared an image of a rocket ship development. Let's see if I can find that here. Let me go back to, to Skoolers and oh no, what did it do? It really did do something weird here. Okay. It had a hiccup and now it's, it's doing some very, very strange things. Anyhow, it's like I'm logged out. Good times. I wonder if this live, if this is even recording. So here is, oh, how do I share the tab? I wish they had that on the little picture interface. I'm going to suggest that they add that. Yes, I am. I'm going to suggest that they add that. Here we go. If this is indeed still recording, here is the different stages of the rocket development. Notice how it got cleaner and cleaner and cleaner. And that's what we're doing as we apply these simple steps to the community. We're going back and looking at this, right? Looking at the metrics, the traffic data, who is responding and then refining that with these simple steps. The money framework is, you know, just your messaging, your outreach, your network, your engagement, and the yes, engaging for the yes. It's basic business stuff, right? Money. It's the simple steps. That's where the connection, right? And that's what this simple money Saturday, this simple money method is all about. So if you'd like to learn more about how this can help you in your business, please hop on that call with me. It's just a 15 minute quick connection. A quick conversation. We'll share a few laughs and smiles and see how we can help one another. Okay. Connect.Wise with Wendy.com. I'll see you soon.
