There is no "one-size-fits-all" answer to this question, and I think that is why so many people feel unsure about what to choose. Most people are trying to make this decision based on what they think they “should” or are “supposed” to do, instead of what actually makes sense for their niche, their goals, and the type of community they want to build. Including whether they even have a real plan for getting members. 👀 And a big part of the stress around this choice comes from thinking it is final. Like once you pick public or private, you are locked into it forever. That is not actually how I look at it. 🤷‍♀️ You have way more flexibility than you think. You are allowed to test. You are allowed to change your mind. You are allowed to treat this like an experiment and collect real data instead of trying to make the perfect decision upfront. Whatever you choose is going to show you how people actually respond. What they engage with, what they ignore, and what needs to change. Don't forget to track it! ✍️ You have way more flexibility than you think. In fact, you should be testing. You should be changing your mind when you get more information. And if you needed someone to tell you, you are allowed to have more than one community serving different purposes. Especially if one of them is meant to help you get discovered. It does not have to be complicated or add a "massive" amount of work. Because I will tell you one big myth that is still floating around out there.. you know the one.. "If you build it, they will come." No. 😐 That is not how it works. So much good work never gets seen. Not because it is bad. Not because the person is not smart or capable. But because nobody ever sat them down and said the simple truth. You have to get traffic. * hello * Please read that again.. PLEASE! lol This is not me trying to sell you on a traffic package. Yes, I have found people that can help you like @Eric Howell and his upcoming Free community Traffic Lounge and then even @Matthew Burns with his ProveWorth community that is essentially the community Trust Pilot or Yelp. Two people I trust a lot, because I know traffic is needed for you to even get the business help.

On this call, @Matthew Burns shared more on what he's been learning about AI discoverability and got more practical about what this actually means for your Skool community. How ChatGPT and other AI tools are influencing decisions, and what that means for how you structure your Skool content moving forward. Most of the call focused on how to stop guessing what to post and start using actual data. Google Keyword Planner tells you what people are typing. That should influence your About page, your YouTube titles, and your public posts. AI tools pull from content that answers questions directly and repeats positioning consistently. My biggest takeaway was how you should start recommending yourself! What we covered on this call: How AI tools decide what to surface in an answer How to use Google Keyword Planner for real direction How YouTube supports AI visibility Why public posts and comments help with indexing How to build a simple system so you are not creating randomly The point is simple. If AI cannot clearly understand what you do and who it is for, it will not recommend you. 🎥 Watch the replay here: ChatGPT Is The New Search Engine | Position Your Skool Community In 2026 Now 👇 If someone asked ChatGPT about your niche today, would your Skool community be obvious as an option?
