How To Win The Skool Games
How to Win the Skool Games: The Easy Way That Actually Works Last month, I achieved something that many community builders dream of—I won first place in Alex Hormozi's Skool Games. While most people think winning requires building a massive community from scratch, I discovered there's actually an easier path that almost no one talks about. In this guide, I'll share the exact step-by-step strategy I used to win, so you can replicate these results and maximize your chances of victory. What Are the Skool Games? Before diving into strategy, let's establish what we're talking about. Skool is a platform that allows anyone to start an online community and monetize their skills and passions. I believe starting an online community is one of the most accessible ways to build a successful online business in 2025. Each month, Skool hosts a contest called the Skool Games, where community owners compete for an incredible prize: a trip to Vegas, a weekend stay at the Skool Mansion, and the opportunity to mastermind with Alex Hormozi, Sam Ovens, and other winners. The Two Paths to Victory (And Why One Is Much Easier) Most people only know about one way to win the Skool Games, but there are actually two distinct paths: Path 1: The Creator Route (The Hard Way) To win as a creator, you need to be among the top 10 communities that generate the most new monthly recurring revenue (MRR) from community subscriptions. The competition is fierce, and the numbers required are substantial. Path 2: The Affiliate Route (The Easy Way) Alternatively, you can win as an affiliate by being one of the top five affiliates who generate the most new MRR from affiliate sales. This means getting the most people to start their own Skool community using your affiliate link. Here's the key insight: If you have an audience that would benefit from starting a community, the affiliate path is significantly easier and more achievable.
