One of the biggest struggles I see with AI is people jumping straight in and feeling underwhelmed by the results. My top tip: don’t start with the tool - start with the thinking. Before you ask AI anything, take 30 seconds to be clear on: • what the outcome is • who it’s for • what “good” looks like When you give AI context instead of commands, the quality of the output improves massively. it just practise a bit of thought beforehand. Inside my Smart Skills Academy community, I show exactly how to do this with real prompts, screen shares, and everyday work scenarios - so AI actually saves you time instead of creating more work. What’s more - I have a free intro to AI training session tomorrow. Learn how to use AI to your advantage without jargon or needing to be a geek 👇 https://www.skool.com/smart-skills-academy-9059

We have our "business card exchange" in the personals tomorrow (Wednesday). I realize that we did this the last time we met, but I'm trying to get back on track and make it our first meeting of every month. That means that everyone who attends and wants to will have an opportunity to share what their group is/does, who it is for, what they do that makes the group different from others similar to it, and how their experience/expertise contributes to the value of the group! 😅 The session is for premium members but it will be recorded and shared with the entire group. If you are not a premium member but would like to attend, you can upgrade here for only $3. It's always a good time! Will I see you there?

Today, in my other community the "Your Best Course" Build Lab, Matthew Burns will be presenting about his amazing community review site ProveWorth. He'll talk about how to get your group listed and certified, how everything works, and how to elicit reviews and testimonials. Next month @Tim Adam will be presenting how to create the perfect Pin! Your standard tier membership ($12/year) also gets you access to my Validate Your Best Course mini-course ($37 value). If you'd like any more information, please feel free to reach out or ask below!

What a great session this morning! We talked about: - the role of courses in your Skool community, - why people might not be visiting your classroom, - what makes a successful course, - strategies for monetizing your group, and - questions you can ask yourself to determine if there is room for improvement in your course or community! The entire session was about 50 minutes long with 30 minutes of questions/discussion at the end. 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙗𝙚 𝙖𝙫𝙖𝙞𝙡𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙡 𝙁𝙧𝙞𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙖𝙩 𝙢𝙞𝙙𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙀𝙎𝙏, so watch it as soon as you can! As part of this training, I am also offering a one-hour 1:1 Classroom Clarity Call for anyone who is interested in having an expert educator review their classroom/community and help you strategize best next steps for your classroom content.
