#MetricsMonday Dec 1

Phew!!! What a week! Thank you all so much for your contributions to the Free For All on Black Friday. It was so much fun!!!

If you are new here, Metrics Monday is something that I do each week on request of the members who are interested in what is going on behind the scenes. I do not think this information is relevant for most groups, but for this group of Skoolers who are interested in what's happening, how we are growing, and how you are getting visibility, it is nice to know.

Number of Members: 758 (+48)

Number of Premium Members: 157 (+41)

Percentage of members who are Premium : 20.7% (+4.4%)

About Page Conversion: 29.4% (-0.5%)

Discovery Ranking in Money: #30 (+13)

Discovery Ranking Overall: #96 (+35)

Activity on Friday: 5,425

Activity on Saturday: 4,929

Activity on Sunday: 824

The Context:

So while it was an amazing week for climbing the charts, it was definitely a slower week for overall growth. Again, I turned away probably 4x the number of people I accepted, but slow growth is good growth!

I also think we'll see a difference in growth after the announcement I'm going to make tomorrow. Keep your eyes open, because you won't want to miss that one! 👀

With the price for Premium membership going up tonight at midnight EDT, there has been amazing growth in our premium membership numbers taking us to more than 20% of the total population, which I think is incredible. Curious about what you think and how you think it compares to other groups you've seen...

What's interesting to note is the difference in how. much we rose in the money category (+14 spots in one day - 44 to 30) versus how much we rose overall (+26 spots 121-95). We had risen quite a bit overall prior to Black Friday (10 spots) even though we had fallen 1 in money...

I think the biggest numbers to take a look at though, are the engagement number and what it actually took to create those incredible gains in discovery. Over 10,000 interactions in 2 days!!!! You all are amazing!!!

Interesting to note also is that the hangover than ensued on Sunday did not results in a fall in the ranks, which was actually what I expected, but I guess we've already proven that I'm not that accurate in my predictions!!!

So, congratulations to all you out there who predicted incredible gains. This was an incredible experience to be a part of!

My goal for the Free For All didn't have anything to do with discovery ranking, though, my goal was to give everyone the opportunity to have as much visibility and growth for your group as possible, so I hope you all were able to benefit from the day as well.

If you are comfortable with sharing, I'd love to hear about your successes from Black Friday below.

Thanks again for your amazing participation and spirit!!!
