You might have an amazing community, but does it look like one to someone discovering it for the first time? By packaging, I mean your cover image, group description, and About page. These three things should work together to make it 𝙞𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙧 who your community is for, what they'll get out of joining, and why they should choose yours. Now here's the big question... 𝗜𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆? If Skool started sending a flood of new visitors to your community tomorrow, would your packaging be good enough to turn those visitors into members? Take a look at your community through the eyes of someone who's never heard of you before. Would you join? 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴? Attach your community's cover image (the one displayed in the top right of your community) in the comments below! Let's help each other make a great first impression.

1) Why you want to build a successful community? My want is multi-faceted and not in any particular order. I’d like to create steady income to get me off disability, to create financial freedom and independence, to help women when they need guidance more than ever, and to get my husband down to just one job then none. 2) What would having a profitable community change in your life? A profitable community would help create a stability financially and in daily life. It would take away the scramble from worry about what gets paid monthly or if we can afford emergency situations. 3) How much progress you have already made? I’ve finally created my community and now have near 30 members. I’m working on some modules and content that is geared towards there needs.

There is no 'right time.' There is only time and what you choose to do with it. What are you starting this week? 👇

If your goal is to eventually go full-time with your Skool community, there’s one number I think you should know: 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙢𝙪𝙢 𝙖𝙢𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙝 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙤 𝙜𝙤 𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡-𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚. Not your dream income. The actual number where you could say, “Okay, if my community consistently makes this, I can do this full-time.” Work out everything it would need to cover: Your rent or mortgage. Food. Power. Internet. Phone. Transport. Insurance. Subscriptions. Skool. Any other software you need to run the business. Taxes you need to put aside. And all the other boring little expenses that keep life running. Then give yourself a bit of breathing room too. You probably don’t want your number to be so tight that one unexpected bill puts you in trouble. Once you know that number, your goal becomes a lot more real. If your number is $5,000/month and your community is $25/month, suddenly you know you’re working towards roughly 200 paying members. If it’s $3,000/month at $100/month, that’s roughly 30 members. That feels a lot more tangible than just saying, “I want my community to be successful.” So... 👇 What’s your number? If you don’t know yet, work it out today and drop it below. You might be surprised by how achievable it actually looks once you turn it into a number.

One of the easiest ways to make your community look more established is to showcase it on a phone in a realistic lifestyle photo. Step 1: Go to Discovery, search for your community, and take a screenshot of your Group Card. Step 2: Upload your screenshot to ChatGPT and paste the prompt below. Step 3: Share your finished image in the comments below, then post it on your social media 👇 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝗜 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗚𝗣𝗧. "Generate a premium lifestyle photograph featuring the latest iPhone held naturally in one person's hand in a vertical (portrait) orientation. The phone should be the clear focal point while still showing a beautiful, aspirational background that matches the community's niche (for example, a gym for fitness, a workshop for woodworking, a beach for travel, a kitchen for cooking, etc.). Display the uploaded image perfectly on the iPhone screen. Use only the community group card section of the uploaded screenshot, including the cover image, community icon, community name, description, member count, and price. Do not display the browser, search bar, navigation, or any other parts of the screenshot. The screen should look completely authentic with realistic perspective, subtle reflections, accurate brightness, and crisp readability. Do not alter the uploaded group card other than cropping, scaling, and perspective adjustments needed to fit naturally on the phone screen. Use an uncased iPhone with a natural hand grip. The overall image should resemble a premium Apple-style marketing photo with soft natural lighting, realistic depth of field, and a clean, modern aesthetic." -- -- -- Quick tip: Before uploading your screenshot, crop it down so it only contains your community card (cover image, icon, name, description, member count, and price). The cleaner your screenshot, the better the final result. I'd love to see what you create. Post your image in the comments once you've made one! 🚀
