I am super excited to have learned more about collaborations from being inside this community. I recall seeing it as a category and wonder how I would ever collaborate...being newer to Skool. - Last month, I collaborated with @Shameka Hall (YouTube expert) where she came inside my community to chat how having an evergreen YouTube channel can continue driving traffic to your business for years!! Its part of what I teach already, but having her come in to chat really drove it home. I am not the expert but teach about it-- now-- people are joining her community that want to learn more and the affiliate income is a bonus!! - 2 weeks ago, I had @Tim Adam (Pinterest Expert) come inside my community-- which is something I wanted to learn more about and then teach about it after I learned. Guess what-- he took that off my plate and I sent people to his community to learn more after he spoke with mine. I got to upload the video to my classroom for everyone to learn more from an expert -- and the affiliate income was a bonus from those who decided to upgrade inside his free community. - Yesterday and today (and again next week) - collab with 3 skool owners @Michelle Spark @Heather Boers and @Jenelle Livet - and am loving it!!! I was able to use my own expertise to teach about "Turning Ideas into Tools using AI" - the same Masterclass I am teaching here next month on April 2 at 2pm EST (see calendar). Results so far-- everyday business owners are learning about how to do things with AI they never thought possible... PLUS ... 10 new paid members to my Amplif-AI Vibe Coding Society in 2 days (between $5/mo - $33/mo or $197/yr for Stars Founding Tier) and affiliates earning income... all because I learned the power of COLLABORATION!!

I have some great announcements about new opportunities this week. 1. I'm super excited that our monthly drop-in this month (the WATERCOOLER) is now open to ALL MEMBERS! And not only that, but a VIP Classifieds members is going to host each of the hours so that there will always be someone there for you to talk to - how cool is that?!?!?! The host and theme for each hour will be posted tomorrow. The WATERCOOLER takes place on Friday. 2. Before the WATERCOOLER drop-in, @Faith Adebayo (moderator) and I will be hosting an onboarding session for any member who wants to know about the Classifieds, how it works, and how to make the most out of it. Think Skool News but CLASSIFIEDS edition and you get to participate too! 3. Tonight, @Kevin Gebert will be hosting the Late Edition of the PERSONALS. This is for premium members who want to have an opportunity to get to know each other better and share more about their communities face-to-face. It's a great opportunity for members who are not in American time zones! Check out the calendar for the times in your time zone.

If I hear someone say ______ I should send them to your Skool. Fill in the blank in the comments so we all know who we should refer to your Skool. That way when someone has a problem I can refer them to the right expert.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how to better support CLASSIFIEDS members who are actively growing their Skool groups and who want more than a place to post - specifically, more visibility, stronger relationships, and meaningful opportunities to collaborate. 🗺️ I’m exploring the idea of a small, curated cohort for group owners who are committed to helping each other grow in practical, generous ways. If you’ve been part of a mastermind before, this might look a little different from what you’re picturing, and that’s intentional. 🧭 Here’s the rough direction I’m considering: - A very small group (intentionally capped around 10-15) - Members who are actively growing paid or monetized groups - Monthly, facilitated sessions focused on: collaboration, cross-promotion, and reciprocal teaching/sharing - Opportunities for members to be featured or highlighted publicly through interviews or collaborations 💵 This wouldn’t be a traditional coaching program or a hot-seat-heavy mastermind. The value would come from: - The people in the room - The relationships formed - And the collective momentum created through collaboration It also wouldn’t be for everyone, and that’s by design. The goal would be quality, alignment, and follow-through, not scale. 💕 I’d love your input on one thing (no pressure to answer everything although you can if you would like): - What part of this sounds most valuable to you? - What questions would you have if you were considering something like this? - If you’ve never joined a small cohort like this before, what would help you understand whether it’s a good fit? There’s nothing to “opt into” yet, I’m simply gathering perspective as I shape the idea. Thank you for being part of this community and for helping me build things that actually serve the people here. I'm really excited about this next chapter! 🎉

In a NEW POST, not here, share something you are planning to offer your community in 2026. You don’t have to give details, but give us a sneak peek into something you are excited about building. For me, I’m super excited about building out the VIP tier for the CLASSIFIEDS. Share below what you’d like to see in a VIP tier! You #SneakPeekSaturday post is a bonus one. You get to do two today…
