Thanks @Chris Suckling, @Isaac Tut, @Avinash Khatri, @Barbara Hobart, @Jim Jones and @Sweetz W for joining my hosting of the Water Cooler hour today! It was so cool to connect with you, hear your stories, and see what everyone is building. Looking forward to more conversations with you!

The next 5 hours will be filled with casual conversation by serious Skoolers like you. Hosted by some of the CLASSIFIEDS VIP members, each hour has a different focus and theme. First up, @Traci Poe of the Public Speaker's Growth Hub is hosting "Let's Just Chat"

Hey Classifieds members 👋 I'm new here and looking forward to connecting with more community owners. I'm curious where are most of you getting your traffic from right now? Are you using YouTube, personal branding, organic social, partnerships, paid ads, or something else? I've spent a lot of time helping creators grow on YouTube, so I'm always interested in seeing how community owners are approaching audience growth. What are you building, and what's working best for you right now?

Ever wonder how you can let people know about your Skool community? Feel like you have so much to offer but don't know how to get people involved? Wish there was somewhere you were actually allowed to promote yourself and talk about your offer? Look no further! The Skool Classifieds are the place where you are not only allowed to promote yourself, but you are actually encouraged to do so! Like the Classifieds section of your local newspaper or the Community Message Board at the gym, this is the place to let people know what you do and what you offer. Here's how it works: 1. Invite other Skoolers you know to join the group using your invite link. The more people join, the more people there are to promote to! 2. You can post once a day only. This is to keep the group from getting spammy. If it's spammy, people won't read and you won't get noticed. Post as many days in a row as you want, but please do not post the same thing day after day - mix it up! 3. Make sure you add your post to the appropriate group/heading. Please see below for a description of what each group is for. If you don't see a group that is appropriate, message me. 4. Self-Promotion is what this group is all about, but please do not DM people with your offers. You will be removed from the group for doing this. 5. Introduce yourself in this thread, and then scroll up and find someone you have something in common with. Reach out. There are some really amazing people here! 😉 This is a place for us to support each other for our mutual benefit. Hate speech, offensive language, or general negativity will be deleted, and you will be removed from the group. *Please check out this post for more tips on how to get great results from your posts. And also this post by one of our own community members who has had great success growing his group through the CLASSIFIEDS.
