This just came up in convos that people collect some really cool things. Some things for sentimental reasons and some because they are worth money. The item we were talking about were the old school lunchboxes that have become collector items. So, what do you collect? And why? I collect essential oils 🤣 or I have a large collection of them that I use! And I collect books ... someday I will read them!

I noticed it right after I got back from vacation... at first I had no clue what was going on. The symptoms were easy to spot... 𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀. And after talking to a few community members... the diagnosis was easy. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗸. But here's what I figured out that most community builders miss... The Summer Time Blues aren't actually about summer. Your members didn't stop caring about your community. They just woke up this morning thinking about their lives... ☀️ the vacation they just got back from. 🏚️ the new house they're moving into. 😒 the unexpected setback they're still recovering from. 📖 the new chapter they're trying to figure out. Your community members wake up every day thinking about 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗜𝗥 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀! And if you're not meeting them where they are right now... no amount of posting, prompting, or pushing is going to fix it. 𝗦𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 is where you'll find the cure for 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀. The people who join today will know exactly how to keep up the momentum 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻. Those who don't want the cure can tough it out and wait for it to pass... but summer is three months long. That's a long time to deal with the aches and pains of slow growth and very little engagement. 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 👉 https://www.skool.com/skool-homeroom-6736/about p.s. The Summer Time Blues don't strike only during the summer, it's something that's happening all the time. The community builders who figure this out now stop chasing momentum and start creating it — no matter what season their members are in. p.p.s. Drop a comment below and tell me... have you noticed any cases of The Summer Time Blues in your community?

Let’s open up a thread where you can ask for help with pretty much anything business-related and also jump in to help others where you can. This thread is 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 (7/3/2026), so if you need help with messaging, your About page, finding collaboration opportunities, figuring out your next move, getting eyes on something, or honestly just getting unstuck, drop it in the comments. But don’t just post your own thing and disappear. Take a few minutes to read through the thread and see where you can help someone else too. Share your thoughts, your expertise, your ideas, your resources, or even point someone in the right direction. This is also a really good visibility opportunity inside the community because people find you when you’re in the conversation. When you show up, help out, and share your wisdom, people notice. So jump in, see who you can help, and see what you can learn from the conversations happening here too. 𝗜𝗳 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲, and you are replying to someone's ask for help, 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸, 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸, 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺, 𝗴𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝘁.

Don't just drop a link and run. 👀 Give people the best of both worlds: 🖼️ Add a graphic 📝 Add a short description Some people stop scrolling because they see an image. Some people stop scrolling because they read a great description that starts with a catchy hook.
