Hey folks, today I have a gift for all Skool Owners and Affiliates who use Content Marketing as a core to their strategy. Announcing Bring Your Own Black Friday, an event where free members at level 2 and above can post 1 sale item with a review in our Share and Engage category in the feed. Free members can post 1 product, service, community, etc. Premium Members (On Sale Now for $10 per month or $90 a year) can post 3 such product listing reviews. Join us ahead of November 27th so you can earn your rank. Be sure to pack in added value and real actionable insights. Let's make the season bright together.

If you are an online business owner or have a SKOOL community, I just updated my about page and need some feedback. https://www.skool.com/team-il-affiliates-8170/about I really want this to improve conversions, and it starts with a strong pain point, moves to who we are, flows into 3 core features, and closes with an invite to join our free community. My big thing is I am not settled on the USP or Unique Selling Position; I think we may get ideas on how to shape this section in your feedback.

Two weeks into my free community, I noticed the comments do more than my posts. Members give each other feedback, and that's how they finish things. So I'm thinking on testing a 7-day challenge: say where you're stuck, pick one small thing, show it, get feedback, finish it by day 7. My concern: does a challenge bring people who stay, or people who leave on day 8? Have you run or joined one? What happened after it ended?

You’ve tracked your spending. You’ve noticed what’s creating pressure. You’ve picked one thing to change. So what happens next? This is where a lot of people get stuck. They make one good decision, then the next week everything goes back to normal. The goal isn’t one good week. The goal is to build a simple system that keeps working. That might mean: - moving a small amount aside as soon as money comes in - keeping that money separate from everyday spending - setting one simple limit you can actually stick to - repeating the same small action every payday or every week Nothing dramatic. Just something you can keep doing. Because real financial control usually doesn’t come from one big decision. It comes from a few small decisions that stop having to be made over and over again.
