🚨 Compliance Blind Spots, Part 1: The Illusion of Big Numbers
"Hit $300K/month.”
“$200K in sales.”
“70% close rates.”
We see these numbers posted all the time. They’re inspiring… but here’s the compliance problem nobody talks about:
👉 If you share revenue without proof or context, it’s an income claim.
👉 If you celebrate a win without showing what’s typical, it can mislead.
The FTC doesn’t care if you’re in a private group like Skoolers.
They don’t care if you meant it as motivation.
If someone sees those numbers and assumes that’s what they’ll get, you’ve crossed into risky territory.
✅ What’s Missing in Those “Big Number” Posts
  • Substantiation – Can you back up the claim with data?
  • Disclaimers – Did you clearly state that results aren’t typical?
  • Context – Did you show what the average member actually earns?
Without those, what feels like a win post can be flagged as deceptive marketing.
:
Celebrate your wins — but balance them.
If you made $300K this month, that’s awesome. Just don’t forget to add context, proof, and disclaimers so your story builds trust instead of hype.
Because inspiration attracts attention. But compliance?
That’s what keeps it.
