@Des Dreckett is at it again with an experiment he is conducting in real time! This is what Des has to say: I'm running a live experiment out in the open, and I want to walk you through it. My community, YouTube For Skool, is priced at $5 a year. That's not an accident, and it's not me being cheap. It's a deliberate tripwire. Free member counts don't tell you much; people join free things out of curiosity all the time. A near-free paid action tells you something completely different. Anyone willing to hand over even a small amount of money is a different kind of prospect to someone who just clicked join. That's the pricing side of the experiment. The other side is Growth Boost. Skool's Growth Boost feature fronts ad spend and pushes Discovery for your community, but it takes a 30 per cent commission on anything it attributes. At $5 a year, that commission is tiny, so this phase isn't really about Growth Boost pushing hard for me yet. It's proof of concept. I'm watching what Discovery does on its own versus what Growth Boost actually contributes, and I'll only move to a recurring $5 to $9 a month price once I've got 50 paying members and real data on willingness to pay, not before. On Thursday 13th August at 8 pm London (3 pm New York, 12 pm Los Angeles), I'm running a live session walking through the whole thing. If you've had questions about how Growth Boost actually works, this isn't just an explanation; you'll see the experiment running in real time, with real numbers, while it's still unfolding. If you're building a paid Skool community yourself, or wondering whether your pricing is set up right for Growth Boost to actually work for you, come watch it live.

Hi everyone! I recently launched the YBC Podcast, a new show where I sit down with entrepreneurs, creators, agency owners, coaches and community builders to uncover the real strategies behind business growth. The first episode features Dr. Bradford Carlton, who has built: • 12,000+ YouTube subscribers • A community of 6,600+ members • A business powered by content and AI systems instead of manual outbound 🎥 Watch the episode here: More importantly... I'm looking for more founders to feature. If you've built something you're proud of... Scaled a business... Built an audience... Created a successful offer... Or learned lessons that could help other entrepreneurs... @Shannon Boyer , I'm still waiting to get you on the podcast! 😄 I know the value you share with this community would make for an incredible conversation, and I hope we can make it happen soon. Aslo I'd love to have a conversation. The purpose of this podcast is to give great entrepreneurs another platform to share their story, expand their reach, and create opportunities through authentic conversations. If that sounds like you or someone you know send me a DM or tag them below. Let's tell more stories that deserve to be heard.

Drop the mask. Drop the rules. You are worthy of being yourself. You can be Authentic AF
