Edited: I edited this for a shorter read. I have decided to pull the trigger on one of the communities that has been on my mind since yesterday. The core idea is to help people understand that they can have their own business and take control, rather than working for someone else freelancing, getting clients, doing gig work, joining an MLM, or signing up for a “make money online” program. One reason I wanted to go this route is because I have someone who sends me these kind of leads. Basically biz opp seeker leads. I can either contact them directly and speak with them, or the leads can be sent straight to the community page. After reading more of Travis’s replies to others, especially about how the movement is the bigger picture and the mission is the narrower more specific focus... If I was to sum up my movement it would be "Build and own an online business you fully control." If I was to sum up my mission it would be "Stop chasing opportunities that build someone else’s dream." Questions: 1- Am I on the right track with this mission and movement? 2- I do not want to be the expert in this group. But I am not 100% sure who I can bring in as experts.What kind of experts would you bring in for something like this? Thank you!

F.I.R.E. Community = Shared Mission / Movement

Did a juicy comment on @Dale Backers post about creating his mission based offer, and how his mission can be used for attraction and for the retention side of house... then @Arthur Koster said I should share this as a post...so here we go. As we suggested on this post... the first thing we need is to create our 'Mission based offer',. The Mission = "specific tribal identity" + "transformational result" + "unique plan" It not only creates the mission for your people to be a part of on the front end (attraction) But it also becomes the roadmap for how to run the community for engagement and retention. Using @Dale Backers skool (post here)... He nailed it with "Cash Flow Creators" as the specific "tribal identity". The "transformational result" = $100 to $2,000 a month (from income machines you can build from home after the kids go to bed." ) - i'd say $1k avg for easier visualization of promise. Then with ownership and operation of "income machines" as the unique method, there's no limit to the trainings and offers you can fit inside that narrative. All models of getting there, from experts around the internet, can be stuffed in like a vending machine that cashflows each month to both parties, also proving the cashflow creator model at play. Then... once you get them into the community, that's when you INDOCTRINATE them into the mission. We don't want to just onboard them onto the platform and show them where they can access content... We work to indoctrinate them into what it means to be a Cash Flow Creator and show them how to behave and belong so they feel like "one us us" and actually engage. A Cash Flow Creator is someone who makes internet money with no fulfillment using income machines so that... (the WHY)

Selling the mission…

I started my Cashflow Creators Club Skool group a few months ago. It’s made me well over $10k in my spare time as a busy dude with a day job. It’s been an amazing “side hustle” if ya wanna call it that. I’ve been thinking about what @Mike Tielemans posted a few weeks ago about selling the mission. I realized I don’t really have one. I just wanted to start a group, document what I was doing, help my group members, and sell them solutions to their problems. That has worked, but I want to turn it up a notch. I’ve spent a few hours trying to formulate the mission and the movement and I’m stumped… I saw @Travis Sago’s equation (SMALL MOVEMENT = CHANGE + DIFFERENT + DESIRABLE OUTCOME). And his truck driver example. If I wanted to follow that example it’s pretty easy for me to say “day job dads who want their online income to surpass their job income so they can quit” Or “blue collar guys who want to make money online” Or some variation like that of who I am + my own goals. Problem is Cashflow creators club already has 220 members. Some men, some women, some in a similar situation as me, but also a bunch who are already full time online. So I don’t want to make my movement or mission something that excludes people who are already invested emotionally, financially, etc. into the group and in me. I notice in Mike’s post the 3 big points he makes are all about the offer. I don’t have a main core offer that everything builds off of. Maybe I should figure that out so I can reverse engineer? Any input would be great. How do you craft a mission or movement and create a group identity without pushing existing members away when the group is already living and breathing?

Hey @Dale Backers we do typically work with coaching communities to package up all their content and coaching into one mission-based offer. But all it takes to build a mission-based offer is a specific tribal identity + transformational result + unique plan. And Uncle @Travis Sago nailed it with "Cash Flow Creators: $100 to $2,000 a month income machines you can build from home after the kids go to bed." 🔥 With "income machines" as the unique method, there's no limit to the trainings and offers you can fit inside that narrative. Then once you get them into the community, that's when you indoctrinate them into the mission. We don't want to just onboard them onto the platform and show them where they can access content... We indoctrinate them into what it means to be a Cash Flow Creator and show them how to behave and belong so they feel like "one us us" and actually engage. A Cash Flow Creator is someone who makes internet money with no fulfillment using income machines so that... And then what do we do = rituals for sharing their attempts at implementing your income machine trainings but also social rituals around the collective identity like BTS of being a busy parent and working on bedtime money at late hours and weird "offices". Then in the community, it's all about reinforcing who we are and where we're going. So if $2000/mo is the mission you're selling on the front end, I would create a hierarchy of what's possible to give them more to strive toward. $2,000 = cushion. This makes you a Comfortable Cash Flow Creator. $5,000 = debt destroyer. This makes you a _______ $10,000 = investor. This makes you a ________ We don't just want to show them what's possible (ie. making $100 - $2k/mo) but we want them to want to achieve this out of FOMO to fit in and achieve a higher status in the group. By creating milestones and celebrate members who reach these with merch and plaques and shit, this makes your content more concrete and creates FOMO/motivation for newer members to take action.

On my way

Decided to jump on Skool myself about a month ago now. After a couple of close friends joined I've started to attract people I don't know - up to 7 members and growing. I think I need to do a campaign by the look of some of the success stories here.
