HOW IT WORKS - READ THIS FIRST
Ever wonder how you can let people know about your Skool community? Feel like you have so much to offer but don't know how to get people involved? Wish there was somewhere you were actually allowed to promote yourself and talk about your offer? Look no further! The Skool Classifieds are the place where you are not only allowed to promote yourself, but you are actually encouraged to do so! Like the Classifieds section of your local newspaper or the Community Message Board at the gym, this is the place to let people know what you do and what you offer. Here's how it works: 1. Invite other Skoolers you know to join the group using your invite link. The more people join, the more people there are to promote to! 2. You can post once a day only. This is to keep the group from getting spammy. If it's spammy, people won't read and you won't get noticed. Post as many days in a row as you want, but please do not post the same thing day after day - mix it up! 3. Make sure you add your post to the appropriate group/heading. Please see below for a description of what each group is for. If you don't see a group that is appropriate, message me. 4. Self-Promotion is what this group is all about, but please do not DM people with your offers. You will be removed from the group for doing this. 5. Introduce yourself in this thread, and then scroll up and find someone you have something in common with. Reach out. There are some really amazing people here! 😉 This is a place for us to support each other for our mutual benefit. Hate speech, offensive language, or general negativity will be deleted, and you will be removed from the group. *Please check out this post for more tips on how to get great results from your posts. And also this post by one of our own community members who has had great success growing his group through the CLASSIFIEDS. To learn How to Make Your Classifeds' Posts Work Harder for You, check out this masterclass by one of our moderators, @Faith Adebayo

🇺🇸 Sometimes the Best Business Ideas Come When You Step Away
One thing I appreciate about holidays like the 4th of July is that they give us permission to slow down. As entrepreneurs, we're constantly solving problems, checking emails, serving clients, and thinking about what's next. But sometimes the best ideas don't come while we're working—they come when we give ourselves the space to think. This weekend gave me one of those moments. I recently had a bookkeeping intern complete their internship. They did a good job learning bookkeeping and made steady progress throughout the program. But what really stood out to me wasn't just their bookkeeping skills. They had a great attitude. They showed up consistently. They weren't afraid to ask questions. They genuinely enjoyed connecting with people. My initial thought was, "Maybe bookkeeping isn't the best long-term fit, and we'll simply wrap up the internship." But after a few days of reflection, I remembered something. As leaders, our job isn't just to evaluate people. It's to mentor them and help them discover where their natural strengths can create the most value. Maybe bookkeeping isn't where they'll shine the brightest. Maybe their real strength lies in building relationships, networking, and connecting business owners with the bookkeeping support they need. That shift in perspective completely changed how I thought about their future. It reminded me that just because someone isn't the strongest in one area doesn't mean they aren't a great fit for the team. Sometimes we simply need to stop asking, "What are they not good at?" and start asking, "Where can they thrive?" That was one of my biggest takeaways from this 4th of July weekend. What about you? Let's start Doing Business Right! DBR P.S. If you know a business owner who wants to have stronger confidence in bookkeeping and QuickBooks Online, have them check out the DBR Bookkeeping Community.

How to get $100K more from your community
Now that I've had an exit with my first paid community (back in '21), I've learned the hard way how business buyers think about our businesses. If I'd had this mindset back then, I could have gotten $100,000 more in my sale. Yes, it burns. And I'm here to help other founders avoid my mistake! Right after I sold, the buyer fired about half my staff. Eliminated what I thought were vital member services, including our job board and our weekend helpdesk hours. At first, I was furious. Now, I get it. To them, a business isn't their baby. They're not up nights worrying about the members' success. It's all dollars and cents to them! They looked at my business... and then they bought it. Because it was a valuable asset. Then, they made it MORE PROFITABLE. Because they're just in business to maximize profits. That's how they get the money to buy the next business. The painful part? If *I* had done that cost-cutting before I sold, I could have had a more profitable business. That's what your sale price is based on -- net profits. NOT gross revenue (which everyone talks about endlessly here on Skool!). I also could have taken home more cash every year, for many years before I sold, by trimming the extras. What could you cut in your business that would bring focus and make you more profitable? Want to talk with me about ALL the things buyers look for? I'm currently doing FREE calls for $10K+ MRR Skool owners (but not for much longer)! Not quite there yet? Come on down to Community Growth Academy and check out my course, Built to Sell. I unpack everything buyers look for in an acquisition and all my hard lessons learned!

#Breaking News: Not Every Baby Animal Needs to Be Rescued
One of the biggest mistakes well-meaning people make is assuming every baby animal they find has been abandoned. Many mothers leave their babies alone while they search for food. Deer, rabbits, and many birds do this every day. If the baby isn't injured and isn't in immediate danger, the best thing you can often do is watch from a distance and give the parents a chance to return. Sometimes the kindest thing we can do is simply let wildlife be wild. If you'd like more simple tips like this, along with inspiring animal stories and trusted organizations making a difference, I'd love to welcome you to Empowering Animals.
