I'm updating all our frameworks and also making things more sharable/printable/etc. Here's an example from @Charlie Schaffer Thriving one word Framework from our intro post. I'm also making every framework we have more flexible so when we provide those to you, you could more easily adjust for use in your own community. More to come on this soon. Who loves reusable frameworks?

Don't forget we have a live call later if you have any questions. 1. Vision and mission - Skool aims to help 1 billion people find community and 1 million people go full time doing what they love. - - The internet makes a full-time income possible in almost any niche, no matter how unusual. - - Question: What's really holding most people back from pursuing their niche: skill, confidence, or the business side? 2. Creator burnout and the content treadmill - Creators are pushed to make more content, in more formats, on more platforms, just to hold attention. - It grew gradually (the boiling frog effect), and most who succeed at it have teams. - - Question: What other parts of your work have crept up on you without you questioning them? 3. The loudest win, not the best - - Algorithms reward attention because platforms sell ads. - Creators end up shaping content for the algorithm instead of the person they want to help. - - Question: How would your content change if it were judged only on how much it helped someone? 4. Flipping the 80/20 with Growth Boost - - Today creators spend about 80% of their effort on content and 20% on craft and community; Skool wants to reverse that. - - About 95% of creators polled prefer this model, even those with large audiences. - Some groups get more signups from Growth Boost than from YouTube channels with 300K to 400K subscribers. - Results aren't consistent for everyone yet, but the team believes they're close. - - Question: Why might having no marketing background be an advantage, and what might you need to unlearn? 5. Inefficiency in online businesses - - Too much time and energy goes into growth instead of serving customers. - The core idea: if someone's good at cooking, let them cook. - - Question: How much of your week goes directly to serving your members, and how much goes to everything else?

Today’s research question: Exactly how much cake is required to properly celebrate Sara's birthday? We’re going to need a LARGE sample size. 😂 Happy Birthday, @Sara Fredrick !! 🥳 I hope your day includes good people, lots of laughter, something delicious, and at least a little bit of doing exactly what YOU want to do. We’re awfully glad you’re here. 💛 Everybody help us wish Sara a VERY Happy Birthday! 🎉🎈

My goal is to launch a LT offer to a brand-new community, drive eyeballs and conversions to get Growth Boost cranking for me, and do 100% of selling through DMs. If y'all are interested in specifics, maybe I could talk more about this? PS— ALL ADVICE WELCOME! Please help me make this a 10/10 launch ⚡️

As we've been looking more closely at onboarding, we've moved beyond Start Here posts, welcome messages, and what someone is told to do first. We've been thinking about the experience of being new. And one question keeps coming up for us... When does onboarding actually end? Is it when someone... 👋 joins the community? 📌 reads Start Here? 💬 introduces themselves? 📚 opens the first resource? 📅 attends something? Those are all things we can see and measure. But someone could do every one of them and still be wondering... 💙 What am I supposed to do here? 💙 Where do I fit? 💙 Who are these people? 💙 What happens next? Which made us wonder if we've sometimes thought about onboarding in terms of what a member completes rather than what changes for the member.🤔 Maybe the better question isn't... Did they finish onboarding? Maybe it's... Do they still feel new? And that's what we're sitting with today. Think about the newest members in your own community. What would you notice that would tell you they no longer feel like a newcomer? We're curious about what you would actually look for. 🔬🐼
