This weeks Skool News, just happened to showcase my community. 🥰 Watch the grab below, and join for free now! Parenting Teens is a parenting community for all parents.

The CLUES Network! Instead of promoting yourself, your work, and the community you are building in a dozen different places, pretty much all the time, we are connecting and collaborating through curiosity in an ecosystem built for community builders on Skool. In the CLUES Network you stand out because of who you are, because of what you value, what you are interested in, passionate about, you get the idea. It's not about what you do, it's about your reasons behind it, they matter! On top of that, you can share your events, and they will be visible to all members of the CLUES Network, as well as everyone who visits the website and our community. It basically means that by being part of the ecosystem, the promoting is done for you, you, your work, your events, get more and more eyeballs on it as we are connecting with each other to grow our communities together. I'd love to hear your thoughts, and if you are curious to find out more, let's have CLUES! The CLUES community is free. Right now, joining the CLUES Network is only $5/month.

Roast & Promote is just starting a fresh new competitive week. The scores are reset and those who give the most helpful, detailed and unique roasts will get a pinned post ad for a whole week. Here is why you should go for it: - You will get a pinned post ad that will stay on the top for whole 7 days. So you stay there even if you're not active in the community. - The post is also taggeed at my classroom, at the Trophy Case, so people will always be able to check it out. @Ruben Plasmeijer was the first winner and even at times where he is not very active there, he still gets new members joining his community - This community is public, so people might be able to find out about you even from outside of skool, on Goolge searches for example. I make hooks thinking about SEO optimization, things that people usually search for. - It's the best way to promote yourself on standard tier. Anyone can win RoW! - I'll also make posts on socials promoting the RoW winner once I get that going. I already started on PInterest and YouTube. Learn the details on how to win RoW here and let's Roast!

In a way, you could say that the community is the WHAT and the HOW. While the story behind the WHAT and the HOW can only be told by one person... The WHY of the community's host matters. Your why as community host matters. Just like your values, your interests, passions, your story! Sometimes I wonder, how often do we look at what someone does, instead of why? What is your take on this? When you are meeting someone new, whether it's offline or online, what someone is doing is interesting, but the reasons behind it are even more interesting, right?!

For me it's the way I am approaching community building. It has evolved over time, from something I had no idea about, trying to do everything at the same time, to having found a balance in everything! It's very likely that it feels like nothing (major) changed on the platform itself, while at the same time something or many somethings did change for you... I am curious to find out what it is! (also if nothing changed😉) And even more so, about the reasons behind those "experienced" changes.
