Have you ever felt lost trying to figure out how for find members to your community? OR potential Clients for your product or service? I know I have struggled with it quite a bit, until I talked to @Des Dreckett about it. @Des Dreckett doesn't really need an introduction, but just in case you don't know, Des is THE YouTube Guy on the Skool Platform. My community is called Embrace Your Inner Weirdo and I didn't know how to go about attracting new members because nobody is using that as a search Keyword. DES is doing a masterclass on how to use YouTube to help your potential members/clients find YOU because of YOUR uniqueness, or YOUR Inner Weirdo. The Masterclass is scheduled for Monday August 24th at 1:00 PM Eastern / 10:00 AM Pacific / 6:00 PM UK Time. Mark you calendar. You don't want to miss this one.

Bring your project and let's make progress together! 🚀 Join Rena Nicole and Rasheed Hooda for a fun, interactive workshop where you'll brainstorm ideas, get feedback, solve challenges, and move your goals forward. Happening the 19th of August at 6:00 AM Pacific on Google Meet. https://meet.google.com/sxj-aqgf-orm FREE!

Hang on a minute… did we really just hit over 400 members inside Skool Events Daily? 😲 And then I looked a little closer and realised something even better… 90 of those members have joined since the 1st July! Now that is something worth celebrating. 🥳 But the number isn't the only thing making me smile. What I’m really celebrating is what has happened since Des and I decided to join forces and created this partnership. Because if there is one thing I have learnt on this Skool journey, it’s that trying to do everything yourself is a fast track to wearing yourself out (and probably talking to yourself a little too much 😂). Skool is built on connection. It’s built on people helping people, sharing ideas, collaborating, and finding ways to support each other. I honestly believe that in today’s Skool world, you can’t just sit in your own little corner hoping people will discover you. You need to collaborate, build relationships, create partnerships, and yes… do plenty of green dollar bartering along the way. Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from handing over money, they come from asking “how can we help each other?” That is exactly what Des and I have been doing, and it’s been amazing to watch the community grow because of it. So a huge thank you to everyone who has joined, shared, supported, referred, sponsored, or simply popped in and become part of what started as a crazy little experiment called Skool Events Daily. 400 members… 90 new since July 1st… and we are only getting started. Now excuse me while I go celebrate with a peppermint tea ☕

Good session today. Had @Jude Hill @Laura Hunter on the call talking through their YouTube channels, plus @Heston Roberts dropping in with some automation and Instagram insight. Here's the TL;DR: - Use Gemini, not just YouTube search, to find channels similar to the one you want to build - it cross-references articles and videos in a way plain YouTube search won't. No niche is fully void of competition. - If you can't find anyone doing exactly what you want to do, find people doing something close and align with their audience instead. A YouTube collaboration (interview format) lets the other person's audience subscribe to your channel straight from theirs, worth asking for once you're established. - A personal story is the thing that can't be replicated by any other channel. Lead with it. Shorts are great for reach, and that dopamine hit of views, but long-form is what actually drives people to take action, join a Skool, click a link, sign up. - Posting frequency has no right answer when you're starting out; do what you can sustain, quality over an arbitrary number. - QR codes on YouTube can move a subscriber into a WhatsApp or Instagram follower, worth testing if you want another channel to reach people. - A phone number question on your Skool signup doesn't have to hurt conversions if the fields are set up right Jude's building a channel around the history of roller skating, trying to record and preserve it as a tradition. She's torn between a few directions: teaching beginners, adults coming back to the sport, bringing her husband in for the technical side. My advice there was simple: get started, get the reps in, and don't feel you need every angle nailed down before you post your first video. She's using YouTube to build trust that sends people to her Skool, not to monetise the platform directly, which is exactly the model this community's built around.
