Dear Yachtusiasts 👋 This week we rolled out several updates to make our community more useful, engaging, and attractive for both current and new members: - About page has been refreshed to be more appealing. - Classroom feature is now enabled. - We’re Yachtusiasts! covers community info, partnerships, updates, and roadmap. - Yachting Industry covers manufacturers, brokers, media, suppliers, and more. - I also posted a call for photos, videos, and comments on our About page in Yachts on Facebook. Later today I’ll review what else we can add to the roadmap. I’d love for you to share your ideas on how to improve this premium club, what you need, and even think about who to invite next. In Skool Discovery, our community is ranked 1,320th in the hobby communities category. We will start tracking this metric together to see whether our community is growing or declining in value. You can access the Yachting Industry section at level 2 by earning points for reactions and comments from other members on your activity. To reach level 2, you need 5 points, which you can easily earn by simply introducing yourself like these members did. Congratulations to @Ieva Drozdova, @Liia Kondor, @Vitalina Chaikovskaia, and @Gianni Spano for reaching this first milestone. Our shared journey is making the community even more valuable. Wishing everyone a great day!

Hey @Vitalina Chaikovskaia 👋 I will reply to you here, because I don't want to repeat to all. First at all super question. Yachts ⛵ on Facebook are more about informations from Yachting industry, and exactly what is make our Premium community here different, and more beneficial for paid members. From next week I want to start online meetings of Yachtusiasts. I've been inspired in The vanlife network. Every Friday they meet and talk about vanlife. I can imagine we do same with boats. Imagine peeps around the world sailing, and meet with like-minded people talking about life, experiences. Have you seen a new intro video to our community? We need to bring first 10 paid people, and then we will go to pro plan. Then I will setup 30% commition for affiliation. So if anybody here bring friend, can have some amount for helping with growing this community. Fair enaught. You and mom like part of the team will have 10% from revenue for helping me with moderation both communities. Everyone should to know, because I'm transparent in it.

Hey @Liia Kondor & @Vitalina Chaikovskaia just let you know, I bring to our circles new friend from Dubai. It's @Gianni Spano and he's running Facebook group Dubai Yacht members. He tried to promote it in our Yachts, but I didn't delete it and ban him, I was inviting him for smart co-operation. So Gianni already know, we need to bring first 10 paid people, who will cover our costs for running Skool community. We will go from hoby plan for $9 to Pro for $99 after that. So we can set up affiliate. I will set up 30%. Thats mean everyone who is here, and help us to grow can have a fair commition for bringing paid members. Now our membership is $10/mont so after 10 first paid people you can have passive income $3/mont per paying member. It's clear and fair enought. When we will reach first 100 paid members our membership will go from $10 to $50 per mont, so it will be $15/month/paying member commition if you bring him here. Probably we will not go higher, but never say never, we will see. Giannu, please read My vojage stories of other members and share your story as well. Happy to having you here, and welcome.

Hi Yachtusiasts🤞 Even though we are growing slower than we might want to, I want to say that I am already happy that together we are starting to shape something good here. Let’s now focus on the next steps we need to take to help this space grow. Yesterday I agreed with @Liia Kondor that she and her daughter @Vitalina Chaikovskaia will help me take over some of the operational tasks that need to be done on Facebook in our big group Yachts ⛵ There we make sure that only the content stays which our collective decides is interesting for them. That is why everyone can share anything they want in the group and only afterwards we remove posts that do not catch attention. This way we try to keep it clean. I would also like to thank @David Barbetti who has not yet introduced himself here but brought more than 40 friends into our big group. David I made sure to greet each of your friends personally in Messenger. Liia, I have agreed with David not to delete his posts even if they do not get enough reach because his content is usually valuable. I like his work and I want to support quality craft. Here you can check his McO Group Studio. David I will ask you to read the story that our 15 year old star Vita shared here. She is following her dream of fixing her boat at such a young age. Vita has started creating YouTube videos and something tells me we will be hearing much more about her. @Ieva Drozdova you still have not shared your story with us the one you told me in Messenger so please share it with the others. To wrap up I want to invite you all to help us fulfill our first collective mission. Let’s expand the group with the first 10 paying members so we can upgrade from the hobby plan to the premium plan for $99 per month and start using Skool to its fullest including features like the Affiliate setting which I plan to set to 30% so each of us can participate in the growth of our community.
