Hi, everyone, chatting with @Adam McCollough , @Lion Fludd and @Kristine Alise about how things are going here and upcoming plans. One question Adam asked us was 'have you been in the classroom'? As a Resident Expert here, I was amazed to realize that I hadn't clicked the circle to turn it green in any of the classrooms, even though I had been in. Would you be open to hopping into the classroom, and seeing, what have you seen and clicking the circle and remind yourself what amazing value we have here! For Resident Experts, check out the Clubhouse for important deets from Adam.

I really appreciate that so many of you are directly asking me for advice and questions in the DMS, which I do actively encourage because conversation leads to opportunities for everyone. HOWEVER, I am only one person with so many hours in each day and I literally cannot keep up. Because I want to help all of you and some of you are waiting weeks for a reply from me. I would really encourage you to make a new post here in the group with your question, and tag the most appropriate resident experts who is most likely to be able to be able to assist. (I'm @Adam McCollough ) That way our conversations are also open and available to help other people who might have similar problems, you will get your problem solved faster, and you will have the help and different viewpoints of 20 experts and 500 community members. There is a category already set up called. "Ask an expert". Please feel free to continue to send me DMS, I love hearing from all of you but I just want to let you know that this could be a much more effective way to find answers. I will also be adding an ask me anything live session every week in the free community tier when the tiers go live in the middle of this month, so watch the calendar for this and be sure to add it to your personal calendar as a recurring event.

There is a lot of noisy, terrible advice out there from so-called “experts.” They will tell you to guard your knowledge, lock your expertise behind an expensive paywall, and only give people a crummy, low-value “lead magnet” to get their email address, so you can send a string of automated sales letters to them. Let me tell you the honest truth: People who give you that advice are usually just doing it because they are more interested in making a quick sale than actually helping you. Giving what you do away for free could be one of the absolute best things you ever do for your business. And I don’t mean a half-baked PDF that barely has any value. 𝗜 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗳𝗳. I know we all have bills to pay and money to make. But if you want to build a real, sustainable business using the skills you already have, you need to understand one fundamental rule: 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆, 𝗶𝘀 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲. When you chase money, it’s elusive. But when you focus purely on helping people and providing massive value straight away, people will literally queue up to pay you. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗳𝗳 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 1. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝘄 𝗼𝗳 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 This is a hardwired psychological trigger in all of us. When people feel like they have received a massive amount of value or taken a lot from you, they feel a deep-seated urge to give something back. We all naturally crave balance. If you genuinely help someone solve a problem without holding your hand out for cash immediately, they are going to remember you. They will want to repay that value when the time comes. 2. 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗛𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁 People need a chance to see what you are actually like before they commit their hard-earned cash. Giving it away for free gives people a risk-free way to find out about you, see how good you are at what you do, and start to trust you. People are also creatures of habit. Once someone has used your service for three weeks or so, it becomes so much easier for them to stay loyal to you than it is to go off and find a stranger to do the exact same thing. Napoleon Hill used this exact method to fill an entirely empty apartment block. He gave people six months rent-free, while the neighbouring block was struggling to find a single tenant. His competitors thought he’d gone mad, but once his tenants moved in and built a life there, they stayed. He achieved a 100% occupancy, whilst his competitors were still struggling years later.

Real question: Have you started seeing people online say "Grab my Skill!" yet? 🙋‍♀️ If you use Claude, you will. It's everywhere right now. And I want to put my arm around you for a second before you click that download. ☕ Here's the part nobody tells you… A "Skill" isn't just a note. It can carry little hidden instructions — and sometimes tiny programs that actually RUN on your computer. Think of it like a recipe card from a stranger… except some recipe cards can quietly open your fridge, read your mail, and text your secrets to whoever wrote them. Most are totally fine. But you can't tell the safe ones from the sneaky ones just by looking at the pretty cover. So here's the rule, and it's a kind one: 🔥 Don't grab a Skill from just anyone. A real name. A real reputation. Someone you'd actually vouch for. Not a random viral post. 🔥 And when you do grab one — let Claude read it FIRST. Just say: "Read this Skill out loud to me. Explain what it does in plain English. Does it try to run code, read my files, or send anything out? Then adapt it for my business — and ask me anything you need before you build it." That one little step turns a stranger's mystery box into something that's actually yours. Clean. Safe. Built for you. We're not scared of new tools here. 💃 We're just the smart ones who check the recipe card before we eat. 😋 Have you seen the "Grab my Skill" posts yet?
