always..

I have been contemplating selling my Skool community, as I just don't feel I can devote the time and energy needed. Family issues and life have certainly got in the way for me lately. Our community is free but has over 700 members and growing daily. I never got to the 'freemium' stage but I know the community could be taken in that direction. Participation is strong and the core members are very passionate. Any suggestion for my next steps?

Hello everyone 👋 Another part of The Pulse is here. This time, we're covering M&A in communities, introducing the basics of M&A to our new members, looking back at what we accomplished in October, and sharing what's on our agenda for November. We've opened our pilot investment opportunity, giving investors the chance to participate. The approach follows a model similar to venture capital, but focuses on community acquisitions rather than early-stage startups. You can find all the details here

Community building is not just about growing numbers. It's about creating value, building relationships, and helping people grow together. Over time, I've learned that community building goes far beyond organizing events, creating WhatsApp groups, or increasing membership numbers. It's about: - Building relationships: Taking the time to know people, understand their needs, and connect them with the right opportunities. - Creating value: Making sure people leave every interaction with something useful, whether it's knowledge, a new connection, an idea, or a potential collaboration. - Empowering others: Recognizing people with the potential to lead and creating opportunities for them to contribute and grow. - Building beyond yourself: A community becomes stronger when its growth isn't dependent on one person but driven by people who believe in the shared vision. One thing I strongly believe is that the real measure of a community is not just how many people belong to it, but how many lives, businesses, and opportunities it helps move forward.
