@Diana Frank My part-time-semi-retired IT job is completely remote, so yes, I work wherever I find a decent connection. Its Proton VPN for me. Good strategy on the mismatch thing. On other platforms, I shy away from people who are following an inordinately large number of accounts but have only a few followers. I call them "collectors"...a nicer term than "hoarders" LOL😉

@Diana Frank And to you as well! My best to you, Paul
Part 2 - How to not get banned from a community (your Skool bio)
Hey everyone, Just wanted to share what I've learned from reviewing hundreds of member applications and why some people get rejected (or even banned) from Skool communities. This might help if you're trying to join communities or if you're a community owner trying to figure out who to let in. Here's what I actually look at when someone tries to join: - Profile picture - This is huge. If it looks AI-generated, that's a red flag. If the face is cut off weird or I can't see the face at all, probably not approving you. I need to see a real person because it helps me quickly tell if you're legit or not. - Real name - If I can Google your name and find you on other platforms, you're probably real. Simple as that. - Social media links - If you have your other profiles linked, it shows me you're serious about Skool. Also, click your own links to make sure they work. You'd be surprised how many broken links I find. - Communities you're in - I check if you're in free or paid communities, and I look at your comments to see if you're actually participating or just jumping in to spam and leave. - The Mayor Bridges thing - If you have this set up, that's a green flag. It means you took time to fill out your profile. - Country and email alignment - If your country matches where you're actually joining from and your email matches your name, that helps. What NOT to do: - Don't put "Hi I'm new" in your bio - spammers do this - Don't put your phone number or personal email in your bio - Don't use a company name as your profile name if you want people to engage with you - Make sure your bio is grammatically correct (use ChatGPT if English isn't your first language) Here's the thing, this stuff doesn't just matter for getting approved. It affects how people treat you INSIDE communities too. People engage more with profiles that look like real humans. For community owners - if you're wondering why you're not getting engagement, check your profile first. If you're using some random image or your company name instead of your real name and face, that might be why people aren't connecting with you.

I'm just guessing, but replacing, "Hi, I'm new" with "Hi, I'm older than dirt" isn't a good plan either, LOL 😉
Day 1
(This is for people taking part in the challenge.) Task: Pretend you are your ideal client and write a list of at least 3 things they want. But write it as if you were them (first person). Here are my examples: - I want to be better on video - I want to learn how to structure my presentation - I want to present better - I want to attract more members - I want my members to be more engaged - I want to start creating video content - I want to look better on video - I want to be more confident on video - I want to sound better on video - I want people to join my calls Paste your sentences in the comments 👇 Once you're done here, you can move on to Day 2

@Marcin Hakemer-Fernandez Wow! I deeply appreciate your time to respond to this exercise. I concur with your assessment...these may be good answers, but to other questions. In my defense, I looked at this through a lens of asynchronous instruction where there would be little 'live' interaction. Maybe the question should focus on 'why would I want to take this class?'....I can get to some of the "want" things you alluded to more easily. I will give this another shot. Again, Than you!

@Marcin Hakemer-Fernandez Let's try these for a second run for the Day One assignment: - to make a clay whistle or flute - to get started with clay before I spend a lot of money on tools and equipment - to find a fun hobby that I can share/enjoy with my family - to make something that makes a sound that will impress my friends - to know all of the steps to get from a ball of clay to a finished/glazed project
