six people came into Community Income Mastermind this week. five joined, one upgraded. three of the six took the annual 🤩 that's not a coincidence, and it's worth explaining, because it's the last useful thing i can tell you before prices change tomorrow. WHO TAKES THE YEAR? - people who've been at this for a while - they've already lived through the month where nothing happened - so they stopped expecting the fast version, they know it is gonna take some time before they see the results THIS TAKES LONGER THAN ANYONE TOLD YOU - getting to $5k+ per month is gonna take months - not days. not weeks. not "one funnel away." - it might be less than 12 months. i hope it is less than that. but if you get your expectations low, everything else is gonna be a pleasant surprise WHY ANNUAL MAKE SENSE - obviously, you save sh*t ton of money 💰 - pay monthly and you'll judge this in 30-day chunks. that's just what monthly billing does to your brain. - you'll hit day 28 of a slow month, decide it isn't working, and cancel two weeks before the thing you started in month one starts to move. annual isn't me squeezing more out of you. it's me removing that decision. THE SIMPLE MATHS - annual is $197 today. monthly is $37, so the year pays for itself at five and a half months. - tomorrow annual is $497. so today $197 buys you a year. tomorrow it buys you two months. whatever you join at is your price for as long as you keep the subscription running. if you're genuinely sure you'll be done in three months, take the monthly. no shame. but if you are in this for the long run, take the year and stop counting. ➡️ join Community Income Mastermind $197/year (or $37/m). prices change tomorrow, 12pm Jerusalem time; that's 10 am London, 5 am New York.. 7-day free trial still there, cancel anytime. p.s. this is post 7 in a series of 8. last one tonight. p.p.s. glad to have @Marc Green part of the CIM crew

My new book hit #1 in Chronic Pain, #1 in Pain Management, and #1 in New Age Mental & Spiritual Healing this weekend. Full transparency: these are Amazon's free charts, not the paid ones. I’d rather state that clearly than let anyone assume otherwise. But it still put the book directly in front of hundreds of strangers looking for relief. What actually drove it: - Gave it to my community first. 20 personalized advance copies, addressed to real people by name. They became the first reviewers and the loudest sharers. - Taught instead of pitched. Two live sessions over the launch —10 minutes of teaching, practicing together, then Q&A. People buy after they’ve experienced the work. - Kept the community free. The free school is the distribution. People trust me enough to download a book because nothing was extracted from them first. The uncomfortable truth: None of this happened because of launch week. It happened because of three years of showing up weekly to a room of people(Circle, then switch over to Skool), most of whom will never pay me anything. The launch simply collected on built-up trust. 📖 You can grab the book for free through Tuesday, Sept 1: 👉 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HF2RBHWX (No Kindle device needed—works on any phone, tablet, or laptop via the free Kindle app.) The short story: I spent 38 years chronically ill—living with MS, bipolar, migraines, and psoriatic arthritis, using a cane, a walker, and 13 daily prescriptions. 15 years ago, I stopped handing the job of healing over to my mind. Today, I walk freely without daily meds. It's not just a health book. The section on The Five Depths of Head Trash covers the exact overthinking that keeps you researching instead of shipping—which, for community builders, might be the most useful part. Question for the room: What is something you built slowly that later paid off all at once?

not after a pitch. not off a sales call. there wasn't one. one of them wasn't paying me anything at the time. she was in the free community, she'd been there a while, and at some point she went looking for the payment link herself. that's the part nobody teaches, because it doesn't work as a tactic. yesterday i said September's theme is nobody's buying. this is the other half of it. when what you give someone actually changes something for them, paying you stops feeling like a cost. it starts feeling like the obvious next move. WHY MOST OF YOU DON'T ASK - you've done the hard bit. you started the community, you post, people show up, some of them even reply. - then someone asks how you make money from this, and you change the subject. - i know why. the selling you've seen modelled is horrible. WHAT YOU'VE BEEN SHOWN - fake countdown timers. - "only 3 spots left" when there are clearly not 3 spots left. - DMs that open with a compliment and pivot to a pitch in the second message. you don't want to be that. so you've decided you'd rather not sell at all. that's not a confidence problem. it's a model problem. selling means being clear about what you do, who it's for, and what it costs. and saying it out loud more than once. the discomfort comes from thinking you have to perform, and you don't. so that's September in Community Income Mastermind. offers that sound like you, prices you can say without flinching, and building the kind of room where people ask how they can pay you. ➡️ join Community Income Mastermind for $37/m until 1st Sep (going to be $97/m) with 7-day free trial. cancel anytime. p.s. this is post 5 in a series of 8. p.p.s. glad to have @Zena Ryder part of the CIM crew

it is Friday, i know. but, if you are serious about building your business - buckle up, my friends! 🚀 GROW FAST. WHY&HOW today at 3pm UK / 5 pm Jerusalem / 10am New York in @Justin Yip community - Aligned Entrepreneur Network a Live workshop on growing your free Skool community faster, what actually works, and what quietly wastes your time. 🚀 LAUNCH vs EVERGREEN DEBATE today at 5pm UK/ 7pm Jerusalem / 12pm New York in here, we'll debate (just talk) with @Carol Tice about two different models. both models work. the argument is about when, and for who. join us here to listen and ask questions. Carol is the owner of 90 Day Community (Re)Launch. she has ton of experience running a successful and profitable community. who is coming?

that's the sentence i hear most from people who've done everything right. the community exists. people joined. some of them even post and comment. and then nothing happens, and you start wondering "what's the problem?" that's September's theme inside Community Income Mastermind, and it isn't a random topic i picked. in Community Income Mastermind we focus on TRAFFIC, ENGAGEMENT, and MONETIZATION: - you can't monetize a room nobody's in. that's Traffic. - you can't monetize a room that's silent. that's Engagement. - and when both of those are working and still nobody's buying, that's Monetization. September is that third one. SEPTEMBER in Community Income Mastermind: - week 1, the webinar. TOO GOOD TO BE FREE. - week 2, two workshops. we build it together. run twice, timezone friendly. - week 3, no events. you're building it. i keep you accountable. - week 4, two hot seat / Q&A calls. also run twice to accommodate for time zones. plus some productivity sessions i'm adding, to help you actually execute. join if you can, no drama if you can't. ➡️ join Community Income Mastermind for $37/m until 1st Sep (going to be $97/m) with 7-day free trial first. cancel anytime. p.s. this is post 4 in a series of 8. p.p.s. glad to have @Vladimir Belokapov part of the CIM crew.
