Please roast my About page
It's for a hobby community, not a business โ€” so there's no language around 'transformation'. I mostly want it to be clear and to feel welcoming and fun. Thanks in advance! https://www.skool.com/historical-fiction-club-3193/about

Roast my Tier Image
I'm thinking of adding a tier image to my about page. Something like this... What are your thoughts?

The pink blobbiness kinda appeals to me somehow, but I can see how it would put some people off. If it attracts the right people, and repels the wrong ones, that's great. However, I don't know what 'decaudit' means. Also, I'm a Brit (living in North America) so I know what 'fortnightly' means, but I don't think every American and Canadian would. (I don't know about other English-speaking countries.) Again, it depends on your audience. If they're mostly Brits, then no problem.

@Gus Gray Sometimes, people say 'biweekly' but I think that's ambiguous between twice a week and once every two weeks. The clearest would be 'every two weeks' but that's long. "Fortnightly" is such a useful word!
Updated a couple of things in my about page intro video...
let the roasting begin. couple adjustments to pictures also. https://www.skool.com/brandlikeaboss/about

Hi @Lion Fludd, here's some feedback... Main Image (video still): โ€œBrand like a bossโ€ and photo looks great. Very professional and a distinct vibe. Iโ€™m not much of a video watcher (prefer to read) and the videos were too long for me I donโ€™t understand the second image. You need to change the size of the 3rd image. Also, are those three problems really what people complain about? Are you helping with the tech? Or more with the confidence side of things? I find myself a bit confused at this pointโ€ฆ The top right image conflicts with the main image a bit. The little cartoon is a totally different vibe. The description over on the right. Yes, people need to be more trusted but it strikes me as a bit vague. Same goes for โ€œthis is where that beginsโ€. Who is your community for and what is the result theyโ€™ll get, with as much specificity as you can manage in a few words? About section: The headline strikes me as a bit vague. Itโ€™s the sort of promise everyone makes. Your second sentence, however, thatโ€™s cool! Weโ€™ve got the outcome and how youโ€™re going to help people get there. The bullet points seem fine to me, but I don't know your audience. You need a CTA at the end. Overall, I'd say there's some lack of clarity over what you're trying to do. Boost on-screen confidence? Or help with the tech side of things? Those are two different things. Also, what's your experience or authority? I think I need some of that in the About section. Hope this helps a bit!

Hi, I love the idea of this community! I run a writing group where we give one another feedback on our work, and it's so valuable. Honest feedback, respectfully given, is priceless. I'm a freelance writer, historical fiction author, and avid reader. Just dipping my toes in creating a Skool community. Looking forward to giving and receiving some roasting in here!
