Zero Dollars, Zero Results, Zero Time Left? Perfect. Listen to me.
today is the last day to join Community Income Mastermind. doors close tomorrow when i wake up/start working (around 10am Jerusalem time). why i close doors? cause i want to give my undivided attention to those who are committed. before they do, i'm answering the three questions i get every single time. video's below if you'd rather watch. 1. "i haven't made any money yet. should i invest?" imagine you are opening a restaurant. you pay a year of rent, the design, the branding, the ads, the staff, the menu. all before one customer walks in. you invest first. you recover it after you open. "i must start earning before i start investing is the wrong premise" those are the rules of the game in real life, not in the dream land some gurus sell. 2. "i've bought programs/hired coaches before and got nothing." me too. programs with multiple zeros. zero results=cash. was it for nothing? no. i learned something. it was just expensive lessons, with a very low return. and also, i was not ready. i did not put my all. so, it is not just on them, it is on me as well. the program was not for me. the time was not right... so why is this one different? me. i care whether you get results. i limit how many people i take in. and this month i'm adding 1:1 accountability — monthly 1:1, weekly checking, and implementation calls after every workshop. i am not happy with reducing the price, get paid more, but less ppl results (10%). i want to keep the price, more ppl get results. i am moving towards the higher end - less people, better results first, but then more people, more results. 3. "can you guarantee results?" yes. if you keep showing up and doing the work. it's a two-way street. when members show up, i show up. when they need help, they get it. ask anyone in CIM. but a second guarantee: it takes 6- 12 months. hence, there's an annual plan. annual is $497. it's the commitment, and it's the one i'd pick. cause i am promising you get $5k per month. pretty good ROI.

I love the CIM- dropped out the other coaching groups now to focus on what Lidia is teaching.... So any questions ask away
What's Changing in Community Income Mastermind this Month
doors to Community Income Mastermind are open until 1 October (when i wake up, i close it). and it's not the same room it was. i looked at who actually got results. and it was people, who got more support from me. so i'm adding more accountability and coaching. here's what's new: - 1:1 monthly call to figure out the goal and the plan to achieve that goal - weekly Co-work Power Hour calls, to get on the call and get this thing going the rest is solid: - webinars to teach you the content - implementation calls to figure out how to do it - Q&A/hot seat calls to trouble-shoot what is not working October is packed. we'll work on content: both inside your community and outside to bring more potential clients in. join in, if you want results. not sure? read the testimonials. majority of them are here, so, you can verify with them. anything you want to ask? i have a call on Wed to answer them or just post them below.

Skool DM Automation: Great in Theory, Terrible in Practice
i will never use automated DM sequences on Skool. here's a real example of why. lots of Skool tools now offer DM sequences. and the pitch makes sense. - it saves time. - keeps a line open with every member. - keeps your community top of mind. great in theory. terrible in execution. at least in everything i've seen. this morning i got a DM from someone who's a member of my community. i'm also a member of theirs. two days ago we chatted about them being in my community and booking a call. and then, i receive a message this morning. it was a friendly. something along the lines of: glad you're in the community, just popping in to say hi. before anyone reads this as a callout. it isn't. the person is great. the message, on its own, is great. BUT we talked two days ago. so a "just popping in to say hi" makes no sense. and the moment i read it, i suspected it was automated. the next message sounded scripted too. by then it didn't matter what it said. that's what Skool DM automation costs you. a good message, sent at the wrong moment, to someone who already in communication with you. WHAT TO DO INSTEAD i understand, sending DMs is a lot of work/time/effort. hence, do this instead: - have a library of DM templates for different situations. new member, went quiet, booked a call, no-show. - have a system - easy way - to track where each person is in their journey in your community. so you know which template fits before you hit send. - add personality. a voice note instead of text. a short video. short on time? even a gif beats a paragraph that reads like a bot. these are my fav gifs to follow up with ppl i talked before. DO NOT STEAL THEM ☢️ !!!! templates save the time. tracking keeps the context. the personal bit is you. ➡️ so what's your take on auto DMs, from both ends - sending and receiving them ?

They SO bug me! I left 2 communities (nothing about them, I was looking at ai help and they were just too advanced, I needed REAL beginner). DAYS after I left I was still getting DMs about if I had checked certain things out, and did I want to upgrade! And responding got me nothing until I blocked and reported. It may work better if its a native dm synced to skool, but those add ons really showed who wasn't paying attention, and who I wouldn't go back to even when I'm ready for advanced skills
Dr. House is in da house
i know i missed Saturday movie club. well.. my Monday is so shit, that i thought it's a good time to share one of my favorite series - Dr. House. well, there is actually an extra reason to share Dr. House cause September event - Community Clinic 2.0 - is going to be Dr. House themed. stay tuned. building it as we speak. so, the real reasons why i like Dr. House that much are: - he is really good at what he does - and i like it. i want to be really good at what i do. - he is solving mysteries in medicine. i want to solve mysteries in business. - he is not perfect, very far from it. and so am i. he is terrible. he is. he is an addict. right? and yet, i admire him. and i am captivated by the ways he solves problems. well, did you watch it? did you like it? is he your hero or you despise him?

Love it! I only found it this year, but Ewen and I watched an episode or 2 every night until we were done 😂 Really addictive!
Skool News | Axe Verdict
it's that time again. as always, you can find all Skool News issues, including the latest, in the Vault. - someone just got to 1Mln MRR. wow or not?! i am curious, how much this motivates you? vote below 👇🏻 - Growth Boost is in turbulence mode (SURPRISE-SURPRISE). whatever that means. hence, do not rely on it (PLEASE don't) - reviews are ON for everyone. GOOD! but... be careful, if you have a free or freemium community. cause ... just like mine with 740+ member i only got 2 reviews. it could actually bring your conversion down. - few more improvements for reviews: better tracking how many months someone is paying + moderation (ppl can report a review) , and they want to do a better sorting of reviews - all very good!!! - videos now have auto-generated captions and transcript in different languages. GOOD! Skoolers Classroom Update - interviews with ppl who got $150k+ MRR. IDK i will comment in the comments once i watch those interview. but... my fear, it is not useful for 99% of us. cause we are miles away... and what we should do is way different from what these ppl do. anywho. for now, i just want to say that i don't think "one number" can be the "only number". cause how many rich & successful ppl are not happy? i can name a few. anyway. good things. bad things. nah things. that's life.

I want to see a mix- yeah, some big numbers are what some people are here for. But show me the most active and engaged communities. Show me the niches that might never have that revenue, but have real connection and inspiration. Show me more than hustle energy. I went to a community 'run by a skool games winner', and they won twice in a row. Hadn't had a single green in 7 weeks, not a single like or comment. It was a ghost town. Successful with money? Yes. Successful community? Nope. And if that's how you build a successful personal brand here, its not for me 🤷‍♀️

@Lidia Axe its like a facebook ad I saw for a skool community- idea to £10k (or similar number) in 5 days..... neglected to mention this personal had an email list of 8,000 people until someone called them out in the comments! Yes, success can happen quickly but they are the outliers! For most people you work hard, build slow and stable revenue cuz getting going is hard (especially without ad spend). Plus- the game has changed now with Growth Boost- I was number 2 for TBE.... as soon as GB came I dropped to the bottom of page 1/top of page 2 - very NOT inspiring! So I will be more interested in 6 months time- who used GB? What revenue do your community hit- then what did you have left?
