Testimonials are useful. “This community is amazing!” “I’ve learned so much!” Things like this are nice to hear. But what if instead you showed people what members are actually doing because they joined? 🔬 TRY THIS Create a Results Wall inside your Skool. Instead of only collecting praise, collect: → Before-and-afters → Completed projects → Experiments members tried → Revenue or growth milestones → Skills they learned → Things they launched → Problems they solved → Measurable progress For example, if you run a piano community: ❌ TESTIMONIAL: “This is the best piano community I've joined.” ✅ RESULT: “I finally played my first song using both hands.” The second one shows a potential member: “People like me are actually making progress here.” And there's another benefit. A Results Wall isn't only for prospects. It shows existing members what's possible, gives them ideas for what to work toward and gives you more wins to recognize. 🧪 10-MINUTE EXPERIMENT Look through your community and find 3 member results you've overlooked. Create one post: 🏆 WHAT OUR MEMBERS ARE DOING Share the three wins and tag the members if appropriate. Then end with: “What have you accomplished since joining? Big or small—drop it below.” You might discover you have a lot more proof hiding inside your community than you realized. Are you doing this now or going to try it? Let us know below.

Hey, The Skool Classifieds gang. Quick one, and this isn't a promo for me or any of my communities. I just want to say what a great community this is, and flag something you might not know about. If you upgrade to premium, you can host your own events in here. Shannon's got a course on presenting that walks you through it. I recommend it to all my clients and to anyone in my communities, because the exposure you get for your brand and your community is well worth what it costs. @Rasheed Hooda is a good example. He's got an event running Friday; he's publicising it in his community and mine, and he's hosting it live in here too. His community has started picking up members off the back of it, and I'd expect more after Friday. More importantly, targeted members- people who might actually engage, upgrade, or book you. That's the whole point of doing any of this. There are 2000 members in here. You can post, and that's fine, but hosting is the step most people skip.

Imagine walking past two restaurants. One is buzzing. People are talking, laughing, and eating. The other has 30 empty tables and one person sitting silently in the corner. Which one feels easier to walk into? Your Skool can create the same effect. When a new member enters a quiet community, they may think: “Nobody posts here.” “Maybe this group isn't active.” “I don't want to be the only one talking.” So they stay quiet too. And that creates a loop: QUIET COMMUNITY → MEMBER HESITATES → MEMBER DOESN'T POST → COMMUNITY GETS QUIETER The solution isn't fake comments or manufactured conversations. CREATE REAL ACTIVITY ON PURPOSE. Give members easy reasons to participate: 💬 Ask a question that takes 10 seconds to answer. 🏆 Create a recurring wins thread. 📸 Ask members to show what they're working on. 🗳️ Use polls instead of always asking open-ended questions. 👋 Personally invite 2–3 members into a relevant conversation. 🎯 Run a tiny challenge everyone can complete. 🤝 Ask members to help another member instead of always answering yourself. Early on, you may need to create the rhythm before members naturally create it themselves. Think of yourself as the restaurant host. You're not pretending the restaurant is busy. You're creating enough genuine activity that people feel comfortable pulling up a chair. 🧪 TRY THIS TODAY: Create one post that a member can respond to in under 10 seconds. Then personally invite a few members who would genuinely have something useful to add. What makes YOU more likely to participate in a community that's still quiet? 👇

One of the most important things I've learned since becoming an online entrepreneur is that the most important thing you can do to grow your business is to build relationships. Many of us (myself included) have rushed to promote our groups and services that we care so deeply about. And it only makes sense - we are excited about what we are doing! Today, I'd like to invite you to take a step back and introduce yourself to the group by answering the following questions: 1. Who are you personally? 2. Who are you professionally? 3. What is something you love doing outside of work? 4. What is something surprising about you? As you open up and make more connections, you will find that not only are people more interested in what you do, but they will also be more interested in helping you make connections with other people they know! 😉 After you introduce yourself, please scroll through the other introductions and add a comment to someone you have something in common with or would like to know more about. 😊 Please add your introduction in the comments below! ⬇️

When money feels stressful, the temptation is to deal with whatever feels most urgent. The bill due tomorrow. The unexpected expense. The account balance that keeps bothering you. But not everything that feels urgent is equally important. Sometimes the better question is: “What will make the biggest difference if I deal with it first?” Maybe it’s understanding where your money is going. Maybe it’s creating a little breathing room. Maybe it’s dealing with one debt instead of worrying about five things at once. You don’t need to fix everything. You need to identify the one thing that will make the next step easier.
