Lately, I've been putting more effort into making this community feel like a true community again—not just a place to consume content, but a place where people connect, share ideas, and grow together. I'd love to hear your story. What originally brought you into this community? - Did someone refer you? - Did you discover me through YouTube? - Did you find us through the Skool network? - Were you looking for help publishing your first book? - Were you searching for ways to actually sell more books? - Are you a business owner looking to use a book to build authority and create another income stream? Sure, I can see some of the analytics, but numbers don't tell the whole story. I'd rather hear it directly from you. What was the moment, video, post, recommendation, or goal that made you decide to join? Drop a comment below and introduce yourself. I'd love to learn more about what brought you here and what you're hoping to accomplish. 🚀📚

Sometimes it's hard to explain your book in a sentence... but what if you had to explain it with a GIF? 😆 Drop a GIF in the comments that represents what your book is about (or the book you're currently working on). Examples: ❤️ Relationship book → A couple hugging, arguing, or reconnecting 💰 Personal finance book → Money raining from the sky 🐶 Dog training book → A dog doing something hilarious 🚀 Business book → Someone launching into space 📖 Self-help book → A dramatic transformation GIF No titles. No descriptions. Just the GIF. Let's see if the community can guess what your book is about based on the GIF alone! 👀

I know these ads are connected to our behavior on Skool somehow but it's still fun to see my own and other communities I love in the Skool Meta ads. Congrats @Krista Brea ! 🥳

The truth is, if you want more paid members in your Skool community, you need a strategy. Even when I launch books on Amazon, I don't just throw them out there and hope for the best. I have a pricing strategy, positioning strategy, and launch strategy behind it. Ever since I started working with @Mona Weathers and learning her approach to pricing offers and launching consistently inside of Skool, it has been helping me bring in more paid members to my community. One of the biggest mistakes I see people make is creating an offer based on what they want to sell instead of what their audience actually wants to buy. Studies consistently show that businesses with a strong understanding of their audience tend to see significantly stronger revenue growth because their messaging and offers connect with the right people. When you know your audience, understand their pain points, and create an offer that feels like the obvious next step, selling starts to feel much more natural. Mona is hosting a FREE workshop inside of her community on 📆 May 22nd at 2 PM Eastern Time. In less than a year, she made over $10K in a brand-new niche starting completely from scratch, and in this workshop she's breaking down exactly how she did it. ➡️ No huge audience. ➡️ No fancy funnels. ➡️ No complicated sales tactics. Just simple strategies that help move members from free to paid in a natural way. 👉 👉 👉 JOIN NEXT LEVEL GROWTH HUB
