The Skool Classifieds by Shannon Boyer ā Member Review
This is my community review of The Skool Classifieds by Shannon Boyer. āI was a lurker⦠but this space helped me find my visibility again.ā When Shannon launched The Skool Classifieds, I didnāt know her personally. I joined because I was curious. There was something missing on the platform⦠a real place to self promote without getting moderated into oblivion. In other communities, especially Skoolers, promotion gets shut down fast. Before Classifieds, there wasnāt a clean, intentional space where owners could simply say, āHereās my group. Hereās what I do.ā So I joined as a lurker. A full on L-U-R-K-E-R. I wanted to watch the experiment unfold. I wasnāt even fully ready with my own offers yet. I was still working inside other peopleās communities. But I knew this concept filled a real gap. What stood out immediately was Shannonās leadership. On the first call I joined, I was outspoken. Based on my experience with the platform, I shared concerns and things I thought needed to be addressed. Shannon didnāt get defensive. She didnāt get ego driven. She said, āYeah, I never thought about it that way.ā And she listened. That told me everything. Inside Classifieds, the culture is simple and refreshing. Promote your group. Talk about what youāre building. Share whatās happening. Thereās no perfect format. No overcomplicated posting rules. The only real moderation is no dollar amounts and no off platform offers. Thatās it. Her clarity around the purpose makes it safe. Itās a space built for visibility. I ended up joining VIP as soon as she offered it because it was a no brainer. When she opened up annual pricing, I grabbed that too. I kept showing up to calls. I started welcoming new members because I wanted them to feel seen. And then she asked me to be a mod. Since the beginning of the year, Iāve really dug in. Not from a place of āthese are potential clients,ā even though yes, they are. But from a place of peer to peer support. We all rise together. Thatās the tone she sets.
