Build an amazing community. Post awesome content. Members will show up and start commenting. That's how it works, right? 𝗪𝗥𝗢𝗡𝗚!! The one thing I notice consistently across so many communities, are community owners asking "𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝗜 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲?" We've been told that it's a simple matter of posting stuff that they want to comment on. But quite honestly it doesn't always work that way. The reality is that as a community owner, 𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 in our communities. One thing I do in every single post is include a CTA (𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯) that tells my members exactly how to engage in the comments. I don't leave it open by saying "what's your thoughts" or "anyone else?" 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲. Instead, I create something 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰, something 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗯𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱. For example: 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗧𝗔𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘀? Drop a comment below and tell me how you teach your members to engage with your content... or tell us where you're getting stuck! 👇

Every time I sit down to create a post... whether it's something for Homeroom, a promo for another community, or anything else... I always start the same way. Title first. CTA second. Content last. Because when you have your beginning and your end... the middle practically writes itself. Your content already has a map. It already knows where it's going. Remember in school when the teacher had you switch papers so you could grade each others work? That's what we're doing this week! 🎓 Here's how the game works 👇 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟭: Drop your title and CTA in the comments below 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟮: Go through the comments and grade at least 3 others using our grading system: ❌ = back to the drawing board ✏️ = good rough draft ✅ = A+ 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟯: Take the feedback, revise, and repost 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟰: Keep going until you're hitting A+'s 🎉 The goal by the end of the week? A title and CTA that's ready to draw people in to start engaging!!

Every Sunday, we open up the community and give you a place where you can share what you're working on. Here's how it works: If you have a Skool community... or anything else you're building today is your day to share it. Drop a comment below OR start your own post. Tell us: What your community or your offer is about Who it's for... Drop your link... And if you're starting a new post choose the Show Your Work Sunday category This is your moment. Show us what you've got. 👇🎓
