Day 3 is in full swing. Another specialist is scrubbing in. Next up today — the Conversion Path. From Member to Client (Without Being Weird). @Chris Suckling is joining us to show how to turn the members who already know, like, and trust you into paying clients. Without flipping into pitch mode, without feeling pushy, and without killing the vibe you worked so hard to build. Most community builders are stuck in one of two traps: hiding behind "adding value" forever and never making an ask, or suddenly becoming a different person when it's time to sell. Both kill trust. Neither makes money. Chris fixes that. Chris manages a sales branch producing £6.6M+ per year and has taken hundreds of people from zero sales experience to six figures in their first year. He knows exactly what a conversion path looks like — and how to build one that feels natural. He's the founder of Direct Sales Mastery — a community built to accelerate your sales results, fast. 👉 When it comes to selling inside your community — do you avoid it, cringe through it, or have a system that actually works? Drop your biggest question about converting members into clients below. Chris will see this. 👇 --- - Full calendar of events here - All sessions & speakers introductions here - Purchase all-access pass for $27 (all recordings & VIP sessions) here

For a while, I was doing what most people do. YouTube video, CTA, landing page, opt-in, email list. The standard funnel. It worked okay. But okay wasn't good enough when I looked at the drop off between click and sign up. So I tested something. Instead of sending people to a landing page, I started sending them directly to my Skool community, where my lead magnet lives inside the classroom. Conversions went up. Noticeably. And here's the part that made it even better. Because I'm on Skool's pro plan, every new member who joins automatically gets added to my email list. So I'm building the community and the list at the same time, with zero extra steps. Two birds, one stone. If you want to try this yourself, here's the basic setup. Step one. Create a search-based YouTube video targeting a specific phrase your ideal member is already looking for. Step two. Put your lead magnet inside your Skool classroom, locked behind membership. Step three. In your video CTA, send people directly to your Skool community link, not a landing page. Step four. Connect Skool to your email provider using the pro plan automation so every new join captures the email automatically. That's it. No complicated tech stack. No leaky funnel. Is anyone else here using Skool as their primary lead magnet destination? Would love to know what you're seeing.

Next up on day 2 is the Onboarding Fix Session: The First 24 Hours Decide Everything. @Mona Weathers is joining us to show you exactly what a new member should see, feel and do from the moment they join — so they're hooked before the day is out. Most community builders obsess over getting members in. Most community builders know onboarding matters. Very few actually fixes it: No clear next step. No reason to stay. So they close the tab or the app and never come back. You didn't lose them to a competitor. You lost them to a bad first impression. Mona is the founder of Next Level Growth Hub — helping expert educators, coaches and consultants build repeatable systems for sustainable online growth. No hustle. No inconsistency. Just systems that work. 👉 What does a new member experience when they first join your community and is it good enough? Drop your biggest onboarding question below.
