3 months ago the thought of being on camera terrified me. So I did a few YouTube and community videos. Then the thought of doing a live call scared me. So, I’ve just set up a live call to go through step 1 of the career battle plan with my community next week. Plan is to do regular Thursday calls. The fear and anxiousness is still there. But I also know the only way through it is to face it head on. Love this community and the confidence it’s giving me

About a week ago I launched my first ever ad campaign and was super excited to see results. As the days went on I kept looking at the numbers and learning about all the little details that go into ad sets and ads and all that jazz. However, after 6-7 (😏) days I had a good bit of traffic but still no new members. The old me would have been super discouraged and probably lost motivation. But taking the approach of a scientist/researcher just having fun, I knew I just had to try a new experiment. So, I went back to the drawing board and launched a new campaign with a higher budget. I also spent a few hours trying to figure out how to get ConversionsAPI to connect to Skool so it could track which people join the group. Long story short, I launched the campaign and logged off for the night… only to wake up this morning to 4 new members!! I wanted to share because I just know there are others out there trying to navigate the world of ads and might be feeling discouraged. Something out there will work for you, but you just gotta keep testing and trying until you find it. That seems to be the name of the game in entrepreneurship. Don’t lose heart and just keep swimming 🏊

If you are running ads to grow your skool community (or want to) Getting clear on your numbers (all of them) is vital to your success. I just created this Ads / Business calculator so you can just put in your goals and metrics from skool and figure out exactly what you need. - $ Monthly Ad Spend - # New Community Members - # of application - Price points To hit your goals. If you want it (for free) comment "ADS" below and our automation thingy will send it to you in the DM's.

Finally launched my ad campaign! I wanted to finish a couple things in my community before I launched, but I just got my campaign up and running. I did the about page and then like 10 different persona ads , so I’m excited to see the results. Have you launched your campaign yet? If so, what have your rapids been?

I'm not a guru, an influencer, or even an excellent salesman... But I like to think I'm pretty good at learning quickly. All of @Dan Harrison courses are absolutely fantastic and teach lots of the right things. But I think I dove in too quickly and tried playing King level games with apprentice level skills. He's right when he says all we need at the beginning is an offer doc and a way to communicate with 1 person at a time. When I went back to the basics, removed the added tiers, turned off my 4 step automated funnel I built in backpak, and dropped my entry level price to $0, I added 8 new members in an afternoon. That's a 50% increase just from sending out Facebook messages to people I know. Something I should have done when I started 3 months ago. Don't try to scale faster than recommended. Follow the plan and watch it come to fruition!! What have you been struggling with and what basic action can you do to overcome it?
