I’d love your perspective on something I’m evaluating for the next phase of Coins & Confidence. I’m deciding whether to build a dedicated Facebook group or continue using my Skool community as the free entry point where people can join, get value, and then upgrade into monthly modules. I really enjoy the structure and flexibility Skool gives me as an educator, but I also recognize that I haven’t promoted it consistently yet, which likely explains the slower growth. Facebook, on the other hand, is familiar to most people and could potentially grow quicker — plus it removes the $10 monthly fee. I want to make a strategic decision that supports my audience and aligns with how they naturally engage. For those of you who’ve built communities or coached through this decision before, which direction would you focus on and why? Your insight means a lot as I refine this next step.

Hey Team Rise! I want to make sure my pricing is as fair and valuable as possible. Does this value justification feel like it clearly explains why the premium price is worth it? I’d love your feedback before I launch!” Here it Is: Competitors drown adults in budgets, kid-only lessons, or edutainment that never changes behavior; none address emotional spending, daily habits, or the adult–family gap. My Calm Money Method™ eliminates every failure point by teaching pattern awareness, simple real-life habits, and a calm, humorous approach that makes money confidence stick. While others offer worksheets and lectures, I deliver transformation—helping adults and families break the cycles that create debt with a method designed for everyday life. This is why my $67 Signature tier stands as the premium, high-velocity path to predictable, lasting money confidence. Tell me what y'all think. Do you see any clarity gaps or elements you’d strengthen?

Community let’s talk real. Some of you are out here pouring your HEART into your content, your emails, your posts—crafting what you think is filet mignon… tender, seasoned, valuable, premium. But Google, Yahoo, and even your audience? They took one look at your subject line and said: “No thanks… smells like SPAM.” And listen—don’t get offended. Get informed. Because nothing is wrong with your brilliance. The problem is the wrapper you’re serving it in. Your on-screen hooks and email subject lines are the gatekeepers of your entire business. If you don’t pass them, your message never reaches the people it was designed to change. Here’s the uncomfortable truth: An average message with a GREAT hook gets opened. A brilliant message with a boring hook gets buried. That means your nurture sequence, your offers, your story, your value—all of it dies in the inbox graveyard if that subject line doesn’t stop the scroll. Your hook is the difference between: Them thinking: “Ooh, what’s this? ”vs. “That looks like junk.” So let’s upgrade your plate. Let’s give your brilliance a title that MATCHES its flavor. Here are TED-style title formulas you can borrow to turn your hooks from SPAM into Filet Mignon instantly: - The Power of _________ (ex. The Power of Doing Nothing) - Why _________ Is the Secret to _________ (ex. Why Failure Is the Secret to Success) - The Surprising Science of _________ (ex. The Surprising Science of Happiness) - The Truth About _________ (ex. The Truth About Motivation) - The One Thing No One Tells You About _________ (ex. The One Thing No One Tells You About Success) - Forget _________ — Do This Instead (ex. Forget Hustle Culture — Do This Instead) These work because they create curiosity, tension, and a promise—the three things your audience LOVES enough to stop scrolling for. This week, I want you to rewrite three of your subject lines or video hooks using these formulas. Then watch your open rates and watch time rise.

Ever feel like your sales calls are a gamble—totally unpredictable and built on hope? That's the Amateur Approach. You're in the Reach stage—you have a product, but customer acquisition is inconsistent and revenue is irregular, typically below $2,000 monthly. Continuing this approach means you have zero control, and the process is completely unpredictable. You stay stuck in the Reach tier, losing opportunities and facing burnout. Imagine replacing that chaos with a reliable, structured Scientific Process. This system moves you firmly into the Impact tier (where revenue is stable, hovering around the $2,000 - $8,000 per month range). The Discovery Call Mastery module provides the clear roadmap to achieve this. You'll use the HELP framework to run the entire call and the PITCH framework to structure your closing presentation. Ready to ditch the gamble and take control? Stop relying on hope and start building your predictable system today. Click here to complete the module today!
