Sometimes the most useful gift is something that helps another person find the right words. A reply template. A question list. A boundary script. A checklist for handling a tricky situation. A simple resource that makes a conversation feel easier. You may use it without thinking now, but someone else may be wishing they had exactly that. ❤️ Bring a 𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐛𝐢𝐞 that can help another community owner, or someone they serve. It could be: - A checklist or worksheet - A Canva or Notion template - A useful prompt - A swipe file - An email or DM script - A short Loom video - A simple tracker - A mini guide - A resource list - A five-minute audio It does not need to answer every question. It only needs to make one conversation or next step easier. 🎁 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞’𝗦 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗧 𝗕𝗨𝗜𝗟𝗗𝗘𝗥 If you have participated in Freebie Friday before, sharing a 𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐛𝐢𝐞 this week can unlock the: 📩 𝗗𝗠 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 This Prompt Builder is normally $𝟏𝟕 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 - or you can access all 15 builders while your $𝟗/𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐈 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐟𝐟 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐮𝐦 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 is active.

Your chosen AI tool produces reply options, then you choose what feels right and make it your own before sending. It does not read your inbox, send messages, set reminders or follow up automatically. A voice-note version is text you can adapt and record yourself.

There is more than one way to complete this work. Some members build in public and share each decision as they go. Others prefer to work through their decisions privately. @Siobhan Cunningham completed the pathway privately, and that work counts just as fully. She confirmed that she completed all eight workbooks and downloaded her final AI Chief of Staff Foundation Pack. Her voice review gives us a glimpse of what the pathway helped her clarify. Before starting, Siobhan was having a hard time figuring out how people would move from her free community into a paid membership. She told us the first three foundational steps helped her separate the needs and pain points connected to the free membership, and the paid membership. That allowed her to look beyond one offer or one stage and map the wider journey: In her words: “𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑚𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑚𝑎𝑝 𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑚𝑦 𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑟𝑒 𝑐𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑦, 𝑐𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑟 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑦, 𝑖𝑛 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑛 𝑗𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑦 𝐼 𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑢𝑡.” She also explained that the process helped her stay focused. She already knew that she wanted to bring a group of free members into a smaller group of paid members in STRONG Leadership Collective. The pathway helped her think through what would be most appealing and useful to the people she wanted to serve. 𝐒𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐒𝐢𝐨𝐛𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬. She now has a connected Foundation Pack that brings together the decisions behind her community, member journey, offers, content, delivery, and operating systems. Siobhan... you mentioned you do not want to spend time learning Notion as another system you have to work inside. That is exactly why I created the AI Chief of Staff for ChatGPT users. I turned the AI Chief of Staff into a ChatGPT Skill. If you choose to use it, you can bring your completed Foundation Pack into the AI Chief of Staff and continue working through ChatGPT, and use Notion only as storage behind the scenes.

My favorite part happens before a post reaches the calendar: talking through the idea until I know what I want to say. In the blog I just released, I share why that conversation matters to me, what I still want to check, and where ReadyToPost helps with the next part.

Tell us a little about that sticking point. You don't need a finished solution to join in; it may be something another member is working through too.

If you’ve been meaning to start the 8-Step Pathway, @Siobhan Cunningham has just shared something I’d like you to hear. 💛 She wanted to understand how people would move from her free community into a paid membership. In her new audio review, she explains how the first three foundational steps helped her focus on what people needed at each stage, then map her customer journey more fully. In her words: “𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑚𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑚𝑎𝑝 𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑚𝑦 𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑟𝑒 𝑐𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑦, 𝑐𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑟 𝑗𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑦, 𝑖𝑛 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑛 𝑗𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑦 𝐼 𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑡 𝑜𝑢𝑡.” She also talks about how the work helped her stay focused on the direction she wanted to build and understand what would appeal to the people she wanted to serve. Siobhan, thank you for sharing what the work helped you figure out. Hearing about the decisions behind someone’s community can help the rest of us see where to begin with our own. That’s why I’d love you to visit our Wall of Fame and hear her experience for yourself. Choose 𝟖-𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐰𝐚𝐲 in the product filter to find her audio and written reviews. You can also explore what other members have shared about the Hub and our other tools. After you’ve had a look, I’d love to hear here in the comments: what would you like to get clearer about in your own community?
