When @Christine Vabre first came to me, she was doing what so many online business owners believe they have to do. She was creating content for Facebook.Growing her Skillshare audience.Driving traffic to her website.Trying to keep multiple platforms alive—all while teaching watercolor and serving her students. Like many entrepreneurs, she was working hard to stay visible. But visibility wasn't the problem. Her business was spread too thin. Over the past year, Christine made one powerful shift: 𝗦𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗹-𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁. Instead of trying to send people everywhere, she started sending everyone to one place—her community. That single decision completely changed the way she runs her business. Today, 80% of the members joining her community come directly from Skool. Think about that for a moment. Instead of constantly chasing attention with endless content creation, the platform is bringing qualified people to her. That means she spends far less time marketing and far more time doing what she's truly passionate about—helping people discover the joy of watercolor. But the biggest transformation wasn't just where her members came from. It was what happened once they arrived. Without distracting ads, algorithms, or competing notifications, Christine is able to build trust much faster. Her students get to know her. They engage. They stay. They experience her teaching instead of simply scrolling past another social media post. And when trust grows... Sales follow. Christine shared that nurturing people inside her community has led to roughly four times the sales she experienced with her previous business model. That's what happens when you stop renting attention on social media and start building relationships inside a community you own. My favorite part of Christine's story isn't the sales, though. 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲. Today she's running a thriving business while working just 25–30 hours a week. Instead of living on the content treadmill, she's spending her time where she creates the greatest impact—supporting her students, growing her community, and doing work she genuinely loves.

Wondering what Chrome extension works with Skool to be able to schedule posts in advance and automate DM’s, etc.

Hi Brenda and community, I had a member request which I accepted. It sounded like someone who was looking for me to buy something from him, and I was alerted from Skool with big red lettering High Spam. But I accepted anyway. And turned around the leading question into one of engagement for my own community. I know what's going on here, but I wanted to play around and see what could happen. I don't know. The member was all about how I felt about my community engagement. And so I invited this member to look around in my community and tell me what resonated with him. The answer was very thoughtful, could have been AI, and I appreciated it. Of course, it could be AI, probably was. But I'm choosing just to see, especially since my community is so quiet, though quietly building. What are your thoughts?

What's not to love about getting a notification that you've reached a new level on the Skool Leaderboard? It's one of the features that makes Skool so kool, getting that validation that your contributions to a community are welcome and valued by others in the group. But the higher you get, the bigger the jump between levels, so at the same time you're celebrating the goal you've just reached is the reality of what's ahead to reach the next goal: that empty grey ring around your profile pic, and a seemingly impossible number of points needed before your next level. "Good news! You reached Level 7 🤩! Only 5,999 points to go before Level 8...😳" Still, it's a fun feature, and as the newest Pathfinder here in Skool Scale Camp, I'm honoured to join @Heather Boers @Christine Vabre @Kimberly Armatys and @Lindsay MacGregor in the Leaderboard All-Time Top 5. Who will be next? No matter where you are now, every point counts, so keep on showing up and give your fellow 'Scampers' something to 👍 Like. In fact, have at look at where you are on the Leaderboard right now. If you're getting close to reaching a new level, Comment here and I'll cheer you on. Every 👍 = 1 point, you might be closer than you realize to completing your current level. And I love giving tipping points to those who are about to tip... Let's go!
