Six women. Six very different stories. And I’m going somewhere most “success stories” never bother to go. 👀 The first names are already on my list. If you like hearing the part before everything looked polished, you may want a front-row seat for this one. 😏

I’ve been in this community for a while now…watching, learning, quietly taking notes… …and somehow never actually introduced myself. So here I am — finally showing up properly 👋 I’m Lisa, from South Africa. I come from a long background in the beauty industry, and over the past years I’ve stepped into the online space and digital marketing. These days I’m building Skool Nexus — a space for community owners who want to grow, connect, and not feel like they’re doing this alone. I’m big on keeping things simple, being visible (even when it feels uncomfortable), and actually turning effort into results. Clearly took me a minute to practice what I preach here 😄 But I’m here now — and looking forward to connecting more with you all 🤍

We talk about communities, content, and strategy all week 🥱 Today I want to see what keeps you company while you build. Drop a photo or tell me what’s next to you right now.

Not bad for a community that's only been open for a couple of weeks. 💜 And we're just getting started... Our very first Skool Summit Stage Summit is coming. Speaker applications open VERY soon 🎙️ As a thank you for believing in this community early, our founding members will get first consideration when we begin selecting speakers. Now go vote in the poll ⬆️ And then drop a GIF in the comments that shows how excited you are for our first summit! 🔥🎉 @Laurie Bolianatz @Paula Harrington @Sara Fromm @Dusty Commons @Janay Trevillion @Christina Ciara @Sharon Prahl @Robin Mason @Richard Dias @Jenelle Livet @Alisa Jarrett @Alida Vermeulen @Bansari Panchal @Pamela Jay @Kim Job @Mark Strayer @Kim M. @Jeff Serbus @Kelli Howard @Manda Jackson @Carlo Tassone @Gina Trigo @Cynthia M. @Christina Gray @Miri Campbell @Rudolph Outlaw @Catherine Burns @Nancy Tucker @Christine Howatt @Delsey Kyzer @Brittany Cissell @Ashley Hairston @Trixie Gadson @Mary Park @Kim Tracey @Zully JF Alvarado @Morgane Lemattre @Brenda Rigney @Michelle Spark @Theresa Elliott @Tina Childress @Stephanie S @Aalia Ameen @Aaron Murauskas @Kortni Bolden @Janae Shepherd @Lisa Mendoza @Jenn Filer @Barbara Gannon @Donna Ferguson @Bree Wood

People grab PDFs, guides, and workbooks every day… Then they disappear into the “I’ll look at this later” graveyard 😅 And here’s why it matters… Your freebies are often the very first experience someone has with you. This is where people start building that know, like, and trust factor. If they actually use your freebie and get a quick win? They see that you can bring real value 👏🏽 But if it’s just another boring PDF they never open, nobody cares and nobody uses it. Sure, you got them on your email list… but you didn’t build trust. Maybe they stick around and your nurture emails eventually pull them in. Maybe they unsubscribe and you lose them completely 🤷🏽‍♀️ That’s why creating things people actually want to engage with matters so much. We’re excited to announce our FIRST guest speaker coming to 🎙️Skool Summit Stage🎙️ this Friday and I’m REALLY excited about this one 🔥 @Sondra Verva is going to show us how to turn basic ideas and boring content into things people actually want to click, use, and engage with using AI. Think ✨ Interactive lead magnets ✨ Quizzes ✨ Client tools ✨ Workbooks people actually finish ✨ Creative ways to stand out online No tech genius required No coding required Comment AI below and I’ll send you the Zoom info automatically
