Sell yourself to me (and the community)!
This is a pitching exercise. Sell yourself to people who comment on this tread, starting by me. Find a need and approach people who might need your help in some way. Here is some info about me: - I'm a cybersecurity consultant who wants to make big money on the internet, either from a remote dollar paying job or from succeeding in my business here. I'm shooting both ways. - I want to reach 1000 members in this community ASAP, the goal is reaching before the end of this year. Pinterest is my next goal to explore getting more members. I'll use Pinterest Skool to help me on that. - I'm a father of a 2 year old girl, happily married. - I want to do homeschooling with my wife and be prepared for it in the next 2 years. Moving out of Brazil is part of what will make that possible. - I could be in better shape. Want to have more energy throught the day. Can you help me with any of that? Or other people in this thread. Let us know!

@Adam Thomas That's exactly what I felt in Thailand, I was one of the rare white females living there, and every Thai I met welcomed me with open arms, specially the older woman. Friends brought me to their homes, and I was immediately one of them. That's something I never experienced in the Netherlands, and DEF not here on Curaçao

Roast my Idea for Video Content
I've been trying to think about a way to create video content through live events here on skool, that I can repurpose for YouTube since I started this community. It needs to be on brand with roasting. This is my current idea, that I just refined after talking to @Laura Paulina. Event: Get Interviewed and Promoted Everywhere! 1. People apply to be interviewed live by me. Thinking about 2 people per call(20 mins each). The theme of the interview is getting to know what you do and your journey to build an online business/community for your niche. After the interview you will get roasted live by the community. The frequency of the event will depend on demand, it can be weekly if a lot of people get interested on it. 2. The recording will than be edited and posted on YouTube, taking out the roasting part, that will be exclusive for people here. I'll be making cuts to short videos linking to main ones and crossposting on TikTok and Instagram, all with the formalized consent of the interviewed person. All of them linking to your work and with a hook specifically to target people who are interested in your business. 3. The criteria of the selected people to be interviewed live will be by payment and competition. Among all the candidates the prioritized ones to go first will be: 1. the VIP members, 2. The premium members, 3. the previous RoW winners, 4. The one with the most engagement points here (ultimate tie breaker). 4. You can apply for it at each event. After 2 days, I'll take a list of everyone interested and select 2 based on the criteria above. I'll make a post introducing each of them and tagging relevant people to ask questions to them. Those questions will be asked live by me. 5. The interview will be promoted across different communities like the classifieds and Skool Events Daily so I can get as many eyes as possible at you.

@Paulo Costa, The Roaster I think that is safer for your guest. You can even do it in a separate session, because during the interview you won't have time to listen to the details

@Paulo Costa, The Roaster I think for a good roast from you, you need to see the replay first, so you can have your roast head on, instead of the interviewer hat

Roasting it because you asked, @Kai Cerar The strongest thing in this offer is the first half. Professionals expanding to Spanish-speaking markets. That is a specific person with a specific problem and real money on the line. A consultant who loses a deal because they could not hold a conversation in Spanish is not just frustrated. They are losing revenue. That urgency is the whole offer, and it disappears by the time you get to the second half of the sentence. "Simple, enjoyable, customised, easy to follow daily system" is doing nothing. Every language course on the internet says some version of that. What is the actual mechanism that makes conversational fluency happen in 4-6 months? That is the thing a professional with a business reason to learn Spanish will want to know before they commit. The adjectives feel reassuring but they are not specific enough to be convincing. One more thing: "4-6 months" is a range. Ranges quietly signal uncertainty. If your method consistently gets professionals to conversational fluency, pick the number you can defend and commit to it. The bones of this offer are genuinely strong. The niche is right. The problem is real. The work is in tightening what you say after you name the person. What does the daily system actually look like? That is probably where the real differentiator is hiding.

school scholarship exchange community - roast a community idea
This is my idea for a community. An exchange to connect and help people that are looking for scholarships for their kids to go to college. People join to get help finding and getting approved for scholarships for their kids. The community can keep lists of places to look for scholarships bring in guest speakers to talk about how to get scholarships guest speakers from schools support from each other To monetize it: charge to have people join charge for DWY or DFY services to help them free samples of essays that the kids would have to write this can be successful because there are already people doing it. There are websites, agencies, and consultants that are charging for this. The problem is that some of them are possibly not as honest as they should be. If you can gain the reputation of being honest and willing to put your client forward, this can be very successful. Give it a personal touch to get people to work with you It probably takes a lot of work to do this, not really a side hustle. If you think this is something for you and create a community, you can use my skool affiliate link

The idea has a real problem it is solving and a niche that is genuinely underserved. Those are two things a lot of community ideas are missing. That is the good part. Here is the roast. Everything you listed as the community's value: the scholarship lists, the guest speakers, the essay samples, that is all content. A well-organized website does all of that, and a parent looking for help finding scholarships will Google before they join a paid community. The thing a community does that a website can never do is put members in a room where they help each other. "Support from each other" is listed last, but that is the only reason someone joins a community instead of just bookmarking a resource page. The other thing worth naming: this post asks for a roast and ends with an affiliate link. Those are two different conversations. It makes it hard to know if you are asking for honest feedback on the idea or recruiting someone to build it and send you a commission. Both are fine, but mixing them in one post makes both land softer than they should. What would the community look like if you removed all the content and only kept the member-to-member layer? What is left?

Idea to drive engagement
My All-In-One Growth Engine tool has three tiers Core, Premium and VIP each with its own set of growth tools. I'm thinking of doing the following and wanted your opinions. Should I run this? Each week I check the leaderboard daily letting people know standings and at the end of the week whoever is in the number one position - I open a growth tool from the tier above their level for them for free for the next week. Any tool they want. I think this will drive engagement and give people a chance to try higher tier tools for free if they put the effort in.

Roasting it because you asked :) The mechanic is clever, but the engagement it produces is fragile. You are creating leaderboard chasers. The person grinding for number one is motivated by the prize, which means the moment they stop winning (or stop caring about winning) the behavior stops with it. You have not built engagement. You have built a sprint with a prize at the end. There is also a quiet resentment built into this. Everyone who tries and does not win spends a week watching someone else get a tool they wanted. That is a lot of effort for a lot of people to walk away with nothing, which tends to train people to disengage rather than try harder. The deeper question is: what would make someone want to engage even when there is nothing to win? That is the engagement worth designing for. Leaderboards can layer on top of that, but they are a weak foundation to build on. What does engagement look like inside the community on a week when the leaderboard is not running?

I help Skool owners turn a room they're carrying into a flywheel 🔄 that carries itself. Stop chasing leads. Build a room they come back to.
