The affiliate program feature for our group seems to be coming Monday! Who's looking forward to testing it?

I just stumbled on a free community with 17k members. They are offering something similar to one of my community in French, so I went inside to see how they are doing. There are 5 posts. No more than 5-10 people online at the same time, out of 17k. ZERO post written by someone else than the owner. Now, I'm not saying this is bad in itself. The owner created a simple landing page for his lead magnet, and this is how he is using Skool. It's clever, and it's making him some affiliate sales. But it got me to reflect on how this is NOT how I want to use Skool. Yes, I want my member count to increase. But I don't want my community to be a simple billboard for my free lead magnets. That's why I'm selective on who I let in, and how I invite people to participate. I'd rather go for quality over quantity. And starting small is the best way to create a solid, active community with people who are deeply engaged. What is your take on this?

@Theresa Lang has agreed to share with us her masterclass "Turn Your Skool Group Into a High Ticket Sales Machine". You can watch it here.

This is really cool. You can now upload audio files in a post or in a classroom, and when someone click on it, it opens an audio player.

Yesterday I posted 2-3 comments on a post in a large community. A few minutes later, someone slided in my DM's to vet me, and when I "passed the test" and he was convinced I have a real expertise, he asked me if I was available to come do a masterclass in his group the next day. I was available, so I said yes. They loved the content I delivered on Zoom, and offered me a spot in their group. Now I have one more place to share my content directly to my target market AND my masterclass replay will stay up in their classroom for their members to watch. It's easy when you do it right. It's fun, it's light, and it creates real opportunities. Are you taking the time to connect, and exchange visibility in other communities?
