I am working on putting together a content calendar for me and @Judy Gudmestad . We have 5 different platforms with different schedules and the community posts. I am trying to get Chat to do it and it's not cooperating. I could do it the long way, but with alllllll the AI out there's gotta be something that can do it for me. What do you y'all use?

Haha. Just kidding. But not really. @Heather Boers is soooo good at giving us all kicks in the 🍑 and helping us level up, because those levels is where. It's. At. I have 1,151 points to go to Level 7. So I want you to guess: - how long will it take me to get there? And if you guess right, what should I gift the winner? Guess the timeframe in the comments. And pick what you think the reward should be in the poll. Aaaannnnnddddd go!

A thought I keep coming back to lately... I talk to a lot of salespeople in Direct Sales Mastery, and almost everyone says the same thing when their pipeline dries up. "I just need to send more messages." But every time I actually watch someone turn it around, it's never because they cold messaged harder. It's because they started just... talking to people. Commenting, replying, being useful in random threads, without an agenda. By the time they ask for a call, it doesn't even feel like a pitch anymore. Kind of ironic that the "network less, connect more" approach works better than actual networking 😂 Anyone else notice this? I love seeing how people here build relationships before they ever try to sell anything. What's actually working for you?

One thing I keep seeing with Skool owners is real growth happening with zero visibility into what's actually driving it. No dashboard, no clean read on the numbers, just gut feel. Lidia Axe is running a free live session on Tuesday 14th July, 3 pm - 4 pm UK time (10 am EDT / 7 am PDT), walking through the exact Notion dashboard she uses to collect and analyse her own Skool community's data. It's a genuinely useful watch if you want to start reading your numbers properly instead of guessing. 📅 Join here: https://www.skool.com/skool-growth-lab-2540/about If you're building a Skool community and want more of this kind of practical, no-fluff approach to turning it into consistent income, that's exactly what we focus on inside the Skool Monetisation Lab.

I've seen it happen repeatedly in the communities I'm part of. Someone spends three months perfecting a paid offer and never ships it. Someone else treats it as a small experiment, tests it fast, learns something real, and moves on. Today, Lidia Axe is running a live session called Offers Lab that's built entirely around the second approach. She's going to walk through how she tested her own paid offers inside the Hackathon community - what worked, what flopped, and what she'd do differently. It's a proper behind-the-scenes look, not a theory session. Tuesday 23rd June, 1 pm - 2 pm London time. That's 8 am Eastern / 5 am Pacific. Worth an hour if offering testing is something you're currently thinking through. If you want more of this kind of thing - the practical, no-nonsense side of building a content-driven business - come and have a look at The Content Revenue Lab.
