Forget Facebook groups. This community platform makes people rich

​Want to launch a lucrative subscription model business on a platform that combines community with courses and event scheduling, all in one place?

Look no further than Skool.

I’ve chosen Skool as the place to host my new community for fledgling writers, because this is the best platform I’ve found in that area.

Kajabi is arguably too expensive, and certainly too bland, compared to Skool.

Circle, meanwhile, threatens overwhelm with all those fancy features that you almost certainly don’t need.

Created by the razor-sharp business mind of Sam Ovens and more recently invested in heavily by successful businessman and YouTuber Alex Hormozi (the biggest investment of his career, in fact), Skool is proving extremely profitable for many.

As I write this, the most profitable community there, run by Evelyn Weiss, is making $67,656.

That’s per month.

Yeah.

Skool’s user interface benefits from a wonderfully clutter-free design that reflects Ovens’ love of utilitarian simplicity.
It also packs in pretty much everything you need under one roof.

Each community centres around three main sections that you and your community members can hop between. Funnily enough, each one begins with C.

Let me walk you through these:
​
COMMUNITY
This is the main feed where your members post and chat… without being distracted by notifications about their friends’ latest existential crises, as they are in those increasingly unbearable Facebook groups.

CLASSROOM
Here, you can host video courses and other video content for your members to watch. They can also download your supplementary PDFs, etc.

CALENDAR
This is the place where you and your members can keep track of upcoming events like group Zoom calls. How nice not to have to use a third-party app.

Skool makes it really easy to hop between these three hubs, which makes everything super smooth and user-friendly.

​The platform distinguishes itself further with a strong element of gamification.

Whenever someone hits Like on a member’s post or comment, that member scores a point. Suitably encouraged to engage and make quality posts in the community, they then progress up through various milestones on your leaderboards.

To give them extra incentives, you can choose to have them unlock various benefits or course material as they rise.

I could tell you lots more — such as how you can initially make your community free to enter, then introduce a monthly subscription fee for newcomers — but by this point you’d probably like to take a look around Skool yourself.

Use my referral link (did I mention that Skool also has a really generous affiliate scheme?) that will allow you to build and test-drive your own community for free over 14 days.

After that, you’ll need to pay only $99 per month if you choose to go all in, like me. Skool is of course free for regular members of groups, but creators pay to host their communities.

If you then need help with setting up your new community, just contact me and I’ll be happy to assist you for free.

Oh and join my Community Starters group for lots of friendly help and support with starting your community, including access to a handy community set-up checklist PDF. Become a founding member now to secure free lifetime access.

See you in Skool!

    Hello!

    I'm a writer of stuff for the worlds of Doctor Who, Black Mirror and Friday The 13th.

    My latest novel is Ghoster. Before that was The Last Days Of Jack Sparks and the novella Beast In The Basement.

    My latest book is Taken Over By Something Evil From The TV Set: A History Of Britain's Video Nasties Controversy & Other Scary Journalism. Yeah, that's one long title.
