On May 13, the CLASSIFIEDS own @Matthew Burns (also of Proveworth and monday.com fame) will be hosting a masterclass called Mental Strength For Entrepreneurs. This is one you won't want to miss! I've worked with entrepreneurs from beginning to multiple six-figure and I can say for certain that the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship never ends, it just looks a bit different at each stage of the game. Here is what Matt has to say: Most entrepreneurship content skips the part where it's actually hard. The self-doubt. The whiplash between conviction and panic. The days when nothing ships and you wonder if you're built for this. Matt Burns has been in the room where companies explode with growth and he's been the solo founder staring at a blank screen at midnight. After nearly a decade at monday.com (US employee #1 through IPO, managing 87 people across three continents), he walked away to build ProveWorth from scratch. This masterclass shares the mental infrastructure that makes sustainable building possible - how to think clearly under pressure, how to recover fast when things break, and how to stay in motion when the feedback loops disappear. You'll leave with a framework you can actually use the next time things get hard because we know they will.

If you saw the WATER COOLER drop in schedule last week and you were wondering how you too could become a VIP member and host your own hour, wait no longer - application are opening soon for our next VIP cohort. There are several benefits of being a VIP member, but the most sought after is the ability to participate in the VIP Collab Action Group. Want to learn more about all the benefits? Attend the information session on May 12 (exact time on your calendar). Can't attend live? No worries. It will be recorded. And what's even better, is that this time around applications will be collected in different categories, so if you serve parents, or women over 40, or animal lovers, or if you are in a health and wellness niche, or a hobby niche, or a business niche, you will be able to apply to collaborate with others who will compliment you instead of compete with you. I can't wait to see your application. Keep your 👀 open for application dates, and mark your calendar for the info session on May 12!

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.
