Helping 1 billion people find community
“We want to help people turn their personal hobby into a full-time income."
🧭 Skool’s Mission (from the inside)
Skool’s mission, and what that means for you as community owners, is getting members.
Good communities should find members, and members should find communities that relate to their passion.
🧩 The Big Picture (how it actually works)
The first step is to make a community around the thing you’re passionate about.
Once you’ve done that, you want to get members.
The first few members, you really do have to drive yourself.
🚦 Where the First Members Come From
YouTube with a link in bio
Instagram link in bio
Facebook posts
TikTok
Email list
Direct invites to friends
Hey, do you want to join my community?
🆓 Free First, Always
Most groups start out free.
Your first step is really just to get free members.
Make a cool place that people like and keep coming back to.
💸 Monetization Comes Later
Eventually you can transition to monetizing. You can charge for access.
That earns you monthly recurring income.
If your community matches your monthly costs, that’s when you can transition to a full-time income from your personality.
📊 What Real Examples Show
When you see people making a lot of money, they’ve still gone through these steps.
They’re just further ahead on the journey.
🌱 Size Doesn’t Matter (Yet)
There are massive communities and small communities, and both are amazing.
Every massive community started as a small community.
🔁 The Universal Pattern
Passion → Community
Traffic from social platforms
Free members
Engagement
Paid access
No matter the size, everyone is basically doing this.
🔍 The Skool Network Effect
You probably noticed a lot of examples get members from Skool itself.
You get it started, and the more traffic you drive in, the more Skool starts to drive.
That surprises a lot of people.
Yay for Skool Discovery!
