Most people jump straight to looking at houses, before they understand their numbers. And that’s how buyers fall in love with homes they can’t afford, walk away discouraged, or lock into a payment that stretches them too thin. The first real step isn’t pre-approval. It’s knowing your comfort zone before a lender defines it for you. If you ever want a walkthrough of how to figure out your own numbers, I break it down inside Home Buyer Skool

If you don't know what Reddit is let me tell you: It's the biggest community platform in the world (if you consider a community platform as something separate from social media, like I do). It is among the top 10 most visited websites in the internet. It has lot of potential for making great conections and thanks to it I got a great high ticket client. Letit is a copy of Reddit, that I personaly find very interesting and promissing. Here is a complete breackdown of the pros and cons of each. ---> Reddit PROS: - It's a huge platform with all kinds of users. - If you look at the right places you will find very high quality conections that will be genuinely open to talk to you and give you opportunities you won't find anywhere else. - It's a SEO goldmine. What does that mean? It means that when someone googles an anwer to a question, if that question was answered on Reddit, it will be one of the first results. And if you're the one giving that answer, all the credit goes to you. That's how I got my client, by answering questions people made there. AI also loves using Reddit's answers as a reference. - You can find a community for every single niche there. There is a community for talking about eggs that has thousands of active users posting every day, for example. You will most definetelly find people talking about your very specific niche there. CONS: - It has a very anti consumerism culture. Advertizing under performs there compared to other social platforms. - For the reason above, getting clients on Reddit is very tricky. Self promotion is a sin. Any sort of CTA in your posts, as subtle as they might look, will get you downvoted to oblivion and sometimes even baned. You need a very specific approach for doing marketing there. - Moderation is very annoying and toxic in a lot of places. Reddit's moderators are volunteers with God complexes, that will a lot of times ban users for the most stupid reasons. - It's completely annonymous. You can use your name and photo there but that's not the culture. As a result, it's hard to build your brand using Reddit and also hard to find brands to compare to yours. Reddit is all about focusing on content and rejecting brands.

We had a really great conversation in the PERSONALS yesterday, and some of us ended up chatting for more than 2 hours! Our next session will be on Wednesday but at a different time, so make sure to check your calendar and block off the date because we will be doing a recorded round-table where you will get to introduce your group, your expertise, and who your group is for. The recording will then be posted to the community as a whole, so you will want to make sure you are there for that! After the round-table, we will turn the recording off and open up for discussion for as long as people want to stay (within reason, I'm not sure I have the stamina for one of @Alexander Walter 's 5-hour marathons!!!! 😂). We discussed many things including how to plan for more members joining the Classifieds (our goal is 10,000 members 🤩). The discussion was around how to make sure that everyone still has the opportunity for visibility when there will be so many members posting. The feeling was that post people won't scroll past the first page. 💡 An idea was put forward to get rid of the General Discussion and Communities tabs (and possibly the Freebies tab) and instead have the categories be based on topics - tech, relationships, health and wellness, education, hobbies... I'm not sure how detailed or specific we would want to go - I guess that would be the next decision. I don't want to have too many categories, so that is something to consider as well... ‼️ I'm looking for feedback to see what the group thinks. For any decision I make, I always make it through the mission, vision, and values of the group, and for this group the simplified answer is this: mission - visibility for all through exposure and enhanced connections and collaborations; vision - 10,000 members interacting and supporting each other in their growth; values - high-quality everything so that there is a reason for people to join, to interact, and to keep coming back!

If you "win" a project based solely on price, you've already lost. This is the damaging trap I see CAD drafters fall into over and over again. They drop their fee to undercut a competitor, they "win" the project, and then the real cost hits: - Scope creep becomes the norm—they demand more and more. - Revisions pile up without any additional compensation. - The project ultimately eats twice the hours at half the margin. You didn't win that project. You just bought yourself a bundle of problems. The Harsh Truth About Cheap Clients: Clients who choose you because you're the cheapest will always expect you to stay the cheapest. They are not loyal to your quality or your efficiency. They are only loyal to your low price. The moment a new competitor undercuts you by $5? They are gone. Stop competing on price. Start competing on value. The right clients will pay what you're worth. The wrong ones will leave. That's the point of charging what you deserve. 💰 Ready to Break the Cycle? In my Skool community, we dive deep into these exact points. Let's discuss how to: - Identify the real cost of "cheap" clients. - Implement value-based pricing that justifies your expertise. - Get the pay you deserve and permanently leave the bottom of the pay scale.

Here it is. It's pretty much Fiverr + Reddit. If you don't know anything about reddit, check this post I made a few days ago. It's simply the biggest community platform in the world and one of the most visited websites of the internet. This is your chance to be a very early joiner on something that will grow very big and make a lot of money by establishing yourself early and also referring the first members. People who are fed up about Reddit's insane moderation and controvertial politics will go there. So go and grab a community name before it becomes unavaiable! I grabed self_promotion and tech! These are my first impressions of it: - It's free to create your profile, make job postings and create communities! So we have a unique opportunity to grab a community name that has not been used and absolutely dominate it. - It has a more professional vibe than reddit. There are job postings, you can make payments to other users inside the platform. You can create your portifolio and upload a CV file. - You only pay to get verified, 10 USD. It has potential to be the next big thing for freelancers and solo entrepeneurs. Eventually, when it gets inundated by bots and spammers, the verification will be the way to stand out. - It's very business oriented.
