Membership is up to over 80 members engagement is at 80%, #165 in Hobbies! Even active members is up! new record in activities 284! These are all-time highs.
Here’s what I learned:
- It’s not about building out your curriculum first. Most people won’t even look at it anyway. Build community first! Make your community a fun place to be. “ What’s Nick doing today?”
- Show up everyday. Offer help, encourage others, offer rewards for engagement such as posting in the group at level 3 , DM in level 3. Why? It encourages engagement! And most people can level up in one conversation!
- Participate in other groups not just your niche. Do both! People will radiate towards someone who is authentic, offers encouragement, and shows up!
- Admit that you don’t have all the answers, be humble but stand your ground! Have principles!
- Participate in live calls and when given the chance! Talk not about yourself but how you can help the group individually or as a whole. Call people out in the live by name and tell them how you can help them do something that will make their lives easier!
- Have fun, be nutty, be vulnerable, show your humanity, be authentic! You will shine and people will radiate towards you!
- I’ve also implemented a Buddy System where I encourage higher levels to reach out to level one members! And it’s working! There are so many valuable “lurkers” who deserve a voice! And instead of me reaching out, my members are!
- I also run fun contests, challenges, and participatory sing alongs! That’s coming! Shh!
