1. Go check out 📚Navigating The Course to see how to get around and what's here. 2. Start with The Foundation. Concepts, folder architecture, prompting framework. Everything else builds on this. 3. Check in at the bottom of each lesson. Polls, discussion posts, other members working through the same stuff. Use them. 4. When you're ready to build real things join in on our Biweekly competitions and win some real cash. ⭐ Competitions Mega Thread 5. If you are wanting to dive into the masterminds, grab all the past templates, artifacts and resources. Upgrade and head into the The Vault for Premium and The Drawing Room (VIP) for VIP 6. Post your work. Ask questions. Help others when you can. What are you here to build?

This community is large and it moves fast. That's the good part and it's also the problem: valuable posts get buried, the same questions get re-asked instead of found, and spammers show up wherever there's an audience. These guidelines are what keeps the room worth showing up to. Read them once. You won't need them again, because most of this is what you'd do anyway. New here? Start with Jake's welcome post and the Foundation course. This post is about how we behave, not where to begin. 1. Build in public. Post the thing while it's half working. A half-finished build is more useful to everyone else than the polished writeup you'll never get around to, and you'll get corrected before you've spent a week going the wrong way. 2. Teach what you learn. The day you figure something out is the day you're best at explaining it, because you still remember exactly what confused you. A month later you've forgotten the hard part and your explanation gets worse. If you cracked something this week, that's a post. Nobody has to earn the right to ask a question here, but this place only works because people come back and answer them once they can. 3. Ask good questions. Specific beats polite. "How should I structure this?" gets three vague answers. "I have a 40 file client folder, the model keeps loading the wrong context file, here's my CLAUDE.md" gets a real one. Say what you tried, what happened, and what you expected instead. A more in depth guide: https://dontasktoask.com The flip side of this: "Anyone here?", "Help please", and one line questions with no context may get removed. Not to be harsh, but because nobody can answer them. 4. Give credit. If you built on someone's skill, template, folder structure or comment, tag them. It costs you nothing and it's the reason people keep publishing their work here instead of keeping it. A lot of the best material in this community started as somebody's reply on somebody else's post.

Just dropped a new asset in the Vault course for all Premium members. 8 Claude prompts pulled from our first VIP session. The Prompt Library - The Vault · Quick context on what these are and where they come from. The VIP Drawing Room runs live strategy sessions where members bring their actual businesses to the table. This week Ruby brought her cleaning company, Barkley brought a PE deal flow problem, Megan shared SEO results that jumped 99 spots in 82 cities in three days. From that session I built a full artifact package for VIP: a slide deck with real business frameworks and case studies mapped to each member, three strategy docs designed for Claude, and a term sheet breaking down every piece of jargon. The VIP teams have already spun up their own meeting rooms off the back of it. Over 6 hours of member-led business sessions in the last two days alone. What you are getting in Premium is the prompt library distilled from all of that work. These are the Claude prompts that came out of those frameworks. Zero-spend audits, agency undercut pricing, content-to-client pipelines, the full set. Each one is ready to paste into Claude with your own business context. I want to be straight about why the tiers work the way they do. Turning live sessions into artifacts takes real time. I flew back from New York today and have been up all night building these out. My time is the bottleneck, not the courses. The courses scale. The artifact packages and live strategy work do not. The VIP tier is what funds that time so I can keep the free content flowing and keep Premium loaded with material like this. Premium members, Afternoon Tea is next weekend and you will be getting your own session package from that. More coming. For VIP members, full artifact package is in the Drawing Room course. Slide deck, three strategy docs, term sheet, the whole thing. Your Google form responses are coming tomorrow. 4/11/2026 - The Drawing Room (VIP) ·
