We are having SO much FUN goosifying our community!! It’s so wrong it feels so right

I made an attempt to recreate @Goose Dunlavey 's cover image from the template in lesson 4 and I thought I would share it.. Mainly because I am feeling nervous about showing up with it. Here's what this is bringing up for me: It feels fun and exciting and also it is causing all the questions... 'Is it too bright?, Is it too colorful and glittery? and well, is it too much?'... I am always amazed at that odd thing that rears it's head when we (I) attempt to express all of who we are and what we love (I am/love) can be met with these roadblocks. But, what I DO know is that since I joined Skool a little over a month ago and this community a week ago, I am feeling more and more myself, participating, and having fun - and that is a wonderful feeling!! Happy to hear thoughts, cheers, encouragement, feedback.. conversation. :)

Hey Crew... who is ready for the tiers to be shipped... ??? 🚀🧨 and would you wanna share your strategy? I just became really aware that it's only a few days till the next major shift happens on skool... And hey... are you ready? Prepared? I know that my blitz partner is working on her tier strategy 💖. Huge shoutout to @Michelle McMillionairess ✨❤️🎸 And i just came along a post where @Sheena Mason-White mentioned that she hasnt thought of tier-ing down. Only up. So i am working on my plan. Not ready yet to share. But i will. Before tiers drop. And i would love to hear yours. And if tears of joy are dropping too. It's a win!

1. Proximity: The most successful entrepreneurs I know always attribute a large part of their success to getting in the right rooms. Was by no shock this is the topic that Goose started the event with. Get in the right rooms. The closer you are to people who are doing what you want to do it almost leaches into you. You feel the energy and momentum they have already created. You can significantly reduce the time and money from just one piece of information. It’s a cheat code. 2. Simplicity: We had some awesome speakers that dove deep into their stories and took us though the weeds of what has made their communities so successful. Each one came back to make it simple. If it feels too overwhelming or complex you need to reconstruct your thinking. Goose mentioned a bunch of times that you need to almost unlearn things to be successful on skool. It’s different on purpose, you don’t need to make something complex just to sound smart. @Jay Larosa bought a dead community, which i didn't even know you could do. It had a following but practically zero engagement before he took over. He's willed awesome growth and engagement just by a big green wave of activity in the community. @Charles Tichenor has deployed over $1 billion, billion with a B in meta ads. A major proponent of his message was it does not have to be complicated and in fact and can be really fucking simple. @Jason Hamilton grew a massive audience in a very niche space all by simplifying things with the 80/20 rule. Focusing on the 20% of things that drive 80% of the growth and letting the unimportant things slow you down from working on the main things. 3. Theme: This was the biggest breakthrough of the event for me. If you want more engagement, you should have a theme. The theme allows new members to feel comfortable interacting. Best themes typically relate to something you love that’s from your childhood or feels childish. The more disconnected it is from what you are teaching, the better. Things tend to be funny when it’s so wrong it almost feels right. Like Goosify🍓🐛🦋🌈⭐️🩷. Another example is my community teaches about taxes but will be Napolean Dynamite themed. It sounds silly but the data shows it directly improves engagement. Childish themes for serious business gives people a safe feeling to interact. It’s not that serious and gives them permission to be themselves.

okay last post on the IRL event I swear but just wanted to highlight how critical the VIP day was for us @Sam Greiner. If you have the opportunity pull the trigger. The general ticket day was great but the ability to have the whole IRL team and other VIP skoolers analyze our community was the most important part for us. It gave us direct feedback from our ideal members. We've completely changed how we are approaching things and we couldn't be more excited. It just makes too much sense when you get the perfect feedback mixed with all the data that the goosey gooses have.
