įÆšš»āāļøāā”ļø Are you doing a referral rush in your community?
I saw @Shannon Boyer doing that right from the beginning and thought it was a genius idea. So now I'm doing the same. It's basically a contest for who invites the most people to your community, and Skool has a very nice way to help you keep track of that. It works even on the hobby plan. How do you do it? First, instruct people to use the link in the āInvite Peopleā button from your community. If they donāt use that link, there is no indicator that the person came from them. If they do use the link, the member will have āInvited by [you]ā in the member list. What can you offer for winners? - 1:1 calls with you (thatās what Iām doing) - Cash prize - Access to a private course - Limited or lifetime access to a paid tier - Other options (you can be more creative than I am) Good ways to refer people to other communities: - Make posts like ā5 communities that helped me grow.ā - Do shoutouts to specific communities that you see value in. Show the value you got from them. - Guest lives. This is by far the best way in my opinion. Be a guest in their community, and have them be a guest in yours. This way, you can both exchange members and add value to each otherās communities. The recorded live can be stored in your classroom with a referral link to their community. Some other ideas I had: - Iāll do one every month. The prizes will vary according to the moment of my community. At the moment, I offer four 1:1 calls, but that might not be viable in the future, so that can change to other options I listed above. - Every month, only the winner gets the score reset. So if someone got close to winning this month, they will be closer the next one, and all of their effort will still count. - If there is a tie, you can use the date of the referrals as a tiebreaker. The oldest referrals should count more. The earlier you invite, the better My goal is to reach 100 members by the end of this month.
