One of the biggest mistakes I see community owners make is assuming they should start with a paid community. The truth? Most communities are not set up for that yet. 🙁 In this video, I break down the 4 things that need to be in place before charging for your community and how to decide whether a free, freemium, or paid model makes the most sense for you. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/LFJakvjBiOo After you've watched, let me know: Is your community free, freemium, or paid - and why did you choose that model?

Maybe back in the day we could have had some fun but ... we've all moved on!

That's right... 🌟 LEVEL 5 DAY! 🌟 Today is the day that Level 5 and up members get access to our Level 5 Spotlight thread! If you're Level 5 or higher (standard, premium or VIP), this is your chance to: ✨ Share your link ✨ Tell us what you do ✨ Let the community discover what you're building But here's a little visibility tip... Don't just drop a link and run. 👀 Give people the best of both worlds: 🖼️ Add a graphic 📝 Add a short description Some people stop scrolling because they see an image. Some people stop scrolling because they read a great description that starts with a catchy hook. Why choose one when you can have both? 😉 The more clearly people can see and understand what you do, the more likely they are to engage. And if you're not Level 5 yet... 🔥 Keep showing up. 🔥 Keep joining conversations. 🔥 Keep building connections. Every comment, post, and interaction moves you closer. 👇 Level 5 and ⬆️ members, drop your links below and let's see what you've been creating! 🚫 AND... Don't be a drop-and-ditcher. 😜 Take a minute to visit at least 2 other posts. 🤝 Leave some encouragement ❓ Ask a question 👀 Get curious about what they're building The members who get the most visibility are usually the ones giving it, too. This community works best when we show up for each other, not just for ourselves. So jump in, make a few connections, and then share your spotlight below! 🌟

This weekend gave me an interesting insight... The members seeing the biggest wins aren't necessarily the most experienced, the ones with the biggest audiences or the ones spending hours upon hours grinding away. They're simply taking the next step. For many of you, that next step is reaching 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝟯: 𝗢𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗿. Because that's where you unlock The Visibility Engine. This training completely changes how you think about The Directory and how you show up in it. Instead of treating it like a listing, you'll learn how to use it as an ongoing visibility asset that keeps working for you long after you publish. It's one of the most valuable trainings inside the community, and, once you understand it, it's where a lot of the magic starts to happen. ✨ And level 3 is ridiculously easy to reach. So here's your challenge: 🎯 Check your current level. 🚀 If you're at Level 1 or 2, make it your goal to reach Level 3 today! (Leveling up is as easy as inviting others to participate in a conversation with you... drop your current level in a GIF below) What level will you reach today?!
