Remember when... 🤭
in April I posted that I would get to 100 members in 30 days... well, I just got there today. Obviously I didn't make it in 30 days. 😂 Not the timeline I had aimed for but still a win I'm proud of. Thanks to this community for the accountability, the advice on churn, the crawl that gave me 11 members in one night, and @Lidia Axe for all the great advice 🤩

Churned members
I'm at 96 members after 50 days (yeah I didn't make it to 100 in 30) would be at 103 but 6 have churned (and I removed 1). I've been sending a personal DM to everyone who leaves, just a check-in and an open invitation back. 3 have replied with their reasons, mostly life and timing, but I'm still wondering if better onboarding would have kept them longer. I send each new member a welcome DM and invite to engage with an introduction post and ask them a specific question about their business but when someone joins but doesn't engage at all in the first week do you DM them again after the welcome message? Or does that feel too pushy? A lot of people don't reply to the first DM... I don't want to be annoying but I also don't want to just watch people quietly disappear.

@Roberto Srpak thank you for the advice, you do have a good onboarding process and I am going to think about how I can do this in a structured (and human!) way for my group. Thanks very much 😊
I must go back to my podcast. What's your secret?
This is gonna sound weird. But it's real. I have a podcast... Coach-to-Coach Central - raw and honest conversations about starting a business. How cool is that?! It is cool. I know. Here is what I am good at: - finding cool guests - contacting cool guests (and making them say YES) - recording cool interviews Here is what I am crap at: - editing those episodes fast - publishing them fast - promoting these episodes So I feel like shit. No, I feel like double shit. Cause i have dozen + episodes with some really, really cool ppl ReCOrded. Sitting on my drive. I am awful. Terrible person. And I do not have a solution. PS Why am I telling you that? Cause I know, I will find the answer. And I also know you have same dirty secret, you don't want to tell. Here I am , telling you mine. So, tell me yours and let's find a solution ⬇️

Hi @Lidia Axe, I am about to go back to my youtube channel after a long hiatus with a refresh and something that really helped me get a lot faster at the editing when I was doing a lot of videos (at one point i was doing 2 long form videos a week) was starting by editing the transcript first and foremost. I would read through and get rid of the bits that I already knew I wanted to edit out. It made the process so much faster than having to listen and edit first. I would sometimes go from a 20 minute video to edit to a 8 minute video as would get rid of pauses at the same time too which was a quick click.

How good is your about page DESCRIPTION? Lesson 10 is out when you are ready for it. The only true test is your conversion rate. We'll have a lesson dedicated to numbers. As an ex-accountant, I don't trust words; I trust numbers. The numbers never lie (you'll like this one @Dave Schoof ) Yet, it's nice to get an extra set of eyes on what could be improved in your About Page DESCRIPTION. Simple formula GIVE-GIVE-ASK: - Share your about page description or link - Then give 2+ feedback on other ppl descriptions Let's go 👇🏻

@Lidia Axe this was sooo useful! I had no idea that the freebie that was I trying to use to get people into my community was accessible to everyone even if they weren't in the group 🫠 I have now fixed that! I also will be ensuring to do a rotation of posts that include my keywords during the week too. One question and I'm pretty sure the answer is 'no' but is there a way to lock the community posts or is this just way it is if I want my community public?
