Hi, hi, how are we all doing? A few things I needed to jump on here for. First of all, thank you very much for all your congratulations and well wishes that have come through in relation to partnering up with good old Des. I'm certainly looking forward to it. Des and I work really well together, and our English sense of humour fits quite well as well. So deadline, deadline is coming. If you have just joined School Events Daily, a big warm welcome to you. We have had a lot of new members through, which is absolutely fantastic. But the deadline is looming if you want your events going into the School Events Weekly Bulletin. This is a publication that is circulated every week across the school platform to thousands of more members. That number is always growing through our sponsors. Thank you very much to our sponsors. But you do have to be a premium member to have your event put in the weekly bulletin. So to my premium members, you all know who you are, I have some amazing events coming up next week. But this is the deadline just in case you haven't got your events in. You need to fill out the event registration form, which you can find in the Getting Started classroom. But I will put the link in the text here. So deadline is Thursday, New York— trying to remember— 5 PM. Thursday, UK, 9 PM. And I think that works out to be Friday here in New Zealand at 9 AM. If you have any questions or queries regarding that, just drop me a message and I will help you out as soon as I can. I know I have a couple of people in my DMs that are just asking me a couple of questions in relation to the premium side. And yes, I know, and I am aware that you asked before the deadline of our foundation offer. Struggling with my words today. Our premium offer was going. Don't panic. I will be getting to you very soon. Today has been pretty full on with medical appointments out of town and then trying to catch up on everything because Des is a hard taskmaster. No, no, he's not. He's great.

Heather How are you all doing? And we're here on my final big announcement, I'm really interested to know if anyone has guessed it yet. What do you reckon, Des? Have you guessed it yet? Des I think so. Yeah, I've got an idea. You got a good idea? Heather Well, on top of up leveling on premium, and going pro. I have also— we've added like the 3 Ps, haven't we? Sort of premium, pro, and then the final one is partnership. Des Yay! Heather So Des and I have joined in partnership here on Skool Events Daily, and I'm gonna get Des to explain more about why and what he's gonna be doing because this is gonna going to be his role. But I am still in the front, I am still running Skool Events Daily. So you're not getting rid of this sort of lovely, beautiful face and exchanging it for Des's, although Des's will appear. Thankfully, I will let him appear every so often. Fire away, Des. Why, why have we joined in partnership? Des Yeah, sure. Thanks. Thanks a lot. And yeah, really exciting. And I think it's something we spoke about a few weeks ago. And we have been speaking about and it's been finalized. So one of the main reasons is I've been an admirer of the community for quite a while now. I absolutely love the model. I absolutely love the way we're able to actually promote lots of different communities and just obviously network as well. And I also like you, Heather, and otherwise I wouldn't have— we wouldn't be doing this. So it's— I don't know, I just think there's a massive opening for events. There are a couple of communities that are doing it, but I think it can be done better. And as you were saying, I'm not going to be at the forefront. I'll be in the background, hopefully helping with the marketing side of things, but you will still be running it. You'll be the face of the community. And yeah, nothing really changes for anyone really, but hopefully some new exciting things coming in the latter part of 2026. Heather Definitely. I mean, from our conversations, we have so many ideas that we are gonna bring forth. And what we have done this week is just really the start of it. But we really do want to sharpen things up and remove a lot of friction and make it a smoother journey, not just for people holding events, but also for people coming in and looking for the type of event that they want. But what I love about working with you, Des, is that you have a lot of tech ideas and everything, which I don't have. And you bring in a lot of experience, like you said, on the marketing side, but also in relation to events that you hold yourself. And Des is gonna appear on a regular basis doing some events, and we're going to expand to bringing events into— as in holding events in Skool Events Daily as well. So we're gonna be a really good platform for that. But we're not going to give too many of our secrets away at the moment, but this is our big surprise. Theirs is my big secret.

Okay, so in the excitement of everything that's been going on this week and all my videos, I forgot yesterday to make the announcement for our referral competition winner. So this is not the big competition where somebody can win the yearly premium prize. This is the weekly referral competition that we do. So I've done the spin the wheel, and we have our new winner who will get a full page, um, available to them to advertise themselves, their, um, community, and their events. So I'm going to, uh, let the person know, and you will see the spin the wheel, so you'll be able to find out yourself who the winner is this week. But congratulations to them. A little clue is they are from, I do believe, Helsinki. So have fun with that. If you want to be in the next draw, I do it every week and you get a chance to have a full page to yourself. It comes down to the amount of people you refer, and that will be the amount of times your name will appear on the spin the wheel each week. And now that we are going into the Pro Plan and we are launching the affiliate section come July 1st in New York time midday, then obviously it's like a double win because you're going to get a referral win and a competition win as well if you enter in. So go for it for next week and let's see who is going to win a page to advertise. But it got me thinking before I forget this one, um, that I should be offering this page up also to anyone that wants to advertise their, um, events. So there is now going to be that opportunity. The price is going to be $25 for a complete page to yourself. You can can design it how you like, but it does have to center around you and your events. So if you're interested in that, just drop me a DM. But I'll be reminding you about this, um, all the time, that you can now advertise on a complete page to yourself for $25. So that's it for today. I'm sorry if you were expecting the big news today. It is coming. It is coming. It's all there, ready to go, and I'm going to release that.
