A message from the heart to The Skool Hub members.
❤️ Thanks for checking this out and now you’re here please do read on.
Skool grabbed my attention early 2026 and with my curiosity spiked I began researching the platform to see if the hype was real. Five months on and happily I am pleased to report that I believe it is.
What I noticed very quickly was the mix of people and diverse range of communities but underlying that there seemed to be an incredible vibe of comradery that shone through brightly. I loved that so continued my inspection of Skool and the more I delved the more I liked. All the Skool community owners seemed to have a real passion, not only for their niche, but for the platform itself too.
A lot of the Skool communities are monetised too and this made me even more curious. Could it really be true that Skool was the actual vehicle where people could create and live the online dream of forging an income from something they love? They can and that was it, I was now hooked. That said, because of my marketing background, it was immediately evident that 99% of Skool communities did not allow you to promote your own community within their community! So how do you advertise yourself?!
And that is when I created and launched Skool Owners Network. It was a community dedicated to help Skool community owners by giving them a space where they could promote their communities openly including links to their About page. No daily restrictions, no having to pay to upgrade to post about your own community. And that is still true to this day. Our FREE membership tier allows you to connect and communicate with almost 250 other Skool community owners and shout about your own Skool community from the rooftops every day!
Skool Owners Network caught fire quickly and as soon as it started gathering momentum my advertising and marketing brain went into overdrive. I did and still do as much as I can for every single FREE member but I wanted to give my members more. More visibility, more opportunities to engage with a new audience and a better chance to grow and monetise their communities.
And that brings us up to the present day and explains why, apart from our FREE membership tier, we now also have two paid tiers, PREMIUM and VIP. What I did earlier this year was to set up a dedicated website for Skool Owners Network members at www.skoolownersnetwork.com to get more eyes on their communities and put them right in front of their target audience outside of Skool. Next was adding a suite of apps specifically designed to work with Skool’s algorithms. You can learn more about all 4 apps in our App Showcase at https://skool-app-showcase.base44.app/.
The apps have been brilliantly successful, not least because they are GUARANTEED to increase engagement in your Skool community. The website obviously has ongoing maintenance and hosting costs and the apps, every time they are used, that incurs a cost directly to me as the app owner. So, we must have paid tiers to recover those costs. This is not about justifying that they are within the paid tiers it is simply an explanation.
Let’s presume your community has similar tiers to Skool Owners Network:
▶️ FREE
▶️ PREMIUM $9 per month
▶️ VIP on offer for $19 per month until 30th June
Your FREE members are your funnel to getting paid members so anything you can do to attract more FREE members gives you more PAYING members. You cannot do one without the other and that is exactly what our apps do for you. They allow you to attract more members to give you more revenue.
At this point I’d like to do some maths.
With PREMIUM membership at $9 per month you get access to SkoolSpark plus other benefits.
As your engagement levels increase over time you will attract new members some of whom will convert to paid. If you believe in your community and are confident that your products and services are delivering tangible benefits then why wouldn’t more people join and more people convert to paid over time? With an investment of $9 per month you only need one new paying member to cover the cost!
VIP is a different proposition and is currently available for just $19 per month. After 30th June it will be reverting to $29 per month. This gives you full access to all 4 of our Skool growth apps:
✅ SkoolSpark
✅ SkoolMover
✅ Skool Challenge Creator
✅ 30 Day Engagement Generator
If you were to use these apps continuously for 30 days it is impossible for me to predict how many new members you would attract and the how many of those would convert to paid. But even at your lowest paid tier of $9 per month you only need three new paying members to more than cover your VIP membership!
The essence of this article is to demonstrate that I am doing everything within my powers to provide a platform within Skool that helps you the Skool community owner. Whether you have been here a week or a year, whether your community is free or paid, my ethos of helping will never waver and if I did not sincerely believe that the resources now available to Skool Owners Network members can genuinely help you grow your community my own community would not even exist.
👉 To close, I want to put my money where my mouth is!
You can access a 100% FREE DEMO of SkoolSpark at https://skoolspark-free-demo.base44.app.
The full app has more settings but I want you to judge what it actually does for yourself and how valuable it could be in terms of growing YOUR community.
Thank you for reading this far!
And your reward is the free demo of SkoolSpark!
