The Simplest Way To Make Money Online

Build Your Community, Monetize Your Passion, and Compete for Big Rewards!

Join the thousands of others building profitable online communities with the Skool Games. It’s fun, risk-free, and packed with training that others charge thousands for—get started today!

Basically, a Skool group consists of four main features:

1. Community
2. Classroom
3. Calendar
4. Gamification

Within the community people can engage with each other via posts, likes, comments and direct chat messages:

In the classroom your customers can learn by following your courses/training programs…

Via the calendar you can schedule online and offline events such as recurring calls, webinars and meetups for you and your members…

Gamification awards points to members for each ‘like’ they get on their posts/comments. Reach a certain amount of points and you ‘level up’. Rewards can be linked to each level to boost engagement. Leaderboards show the most active members and rewards for each level…

The community of a Skool group looks like this:

It’s a clean interface, where you can pretty much do two things:

1. Post something yourself.
2. Read and engage with posts of other members.

(more later on the types of posts you can do in a Skool community)

Here’s a screenshot of your average Facebook group:

They look similar and you can post/engage with other people’s posts in a Facebook group too.

But on Facebook, there’s always so much going on. 

Visiting Facebook and navigating to your group feels like navigating through a busy shopping street.

Something or someone is always fighting for your attention.

Posting in a Skool community

Both members and admins can post in a Skool community

You can attach files, images, GIFs and videos (YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, Wistia, or Bunny.net) to your post. It’s possible to run polls too.

When posting something, you do so in a specific category. 

This helps to keep posts organized. Your members can easily view posts by category via pill menu and use the filter button to sort posts, which is handy for finding specific information quickly.

User profiles, chat and notifications

Each community member also has a public profile page:

On a profile page you can see:

• All community activity of that person, like what they posted and when, and what they commented on posts by other people
• Groups created by this person (can be hidden on group level)
• Groups they are a member of (can be hidden on group level)

Following someone means you get notified whenever that person posts.

Besides that, you can start a 1-on-1 chat (there currently is no group chat feature).

The Simplest Way To Make Money Online

In this video, I’m going to reveal step by step how you can make money with Skool.

This is going to be a 0 to 10K per month roadmap.

I’m going to show you examples from people that are already doing it.

It’s a really simple four-step process.

Once you understand what to do and how to do it, you can essentially do this too.

The first thing that you want to do is pick a niche.

A niche is just an area where you’re going to create content, a focus.

For example, this account right here focuses on personal development and men’s health.

This one, I believe, is all about helping life insurance agents.

If you go down this list, basically what I’m looking at are the leaderboards.

The people making the most money with Skool all have a niche.

Sports betting is one example.

You pick one niche and focus 100% within that space.

Credit repair is another option, but that is the absolute first thing that you want to do.

You just need to have one niche.

A niche, again, is just an area where you’re going to create content.

You should be able to pick a niche based on things that you’re interested in.

Think about things you have already accomplished.

Maybe you could just focus on things that you do at work.

For example, you could probably start a successful community all about Excel.

If we typed in Excel here, there might be a community based solely on Excel and teaching people Excel.

Essentially, you need to focus on one area.

Maybe Google Sheets could also work.

You can see that there are a few places talking about Google Sheets.

Step number one, most importantly, is to pick a niche.

Number two is you are going to get attention.

That’s basically getting in front of people that are interested in your niche.

For example, let’s say our niche is woodworking.

This is a pretty popular one that people talk about.

Now that we know our niche is woodworking, we need to get attention.

There are several ways to do that.

You can create content for free, or you can create content with paid stuff.

If you’re going to do free, you’re going to create content like YouTube videos, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter—you name it.

You’re simply going to create content wherever people are hanging out.

For example, if we go over to YouTube and type in “how to start a woodworking business,” you can see that there are lots of people in this space teaching others how to start a woodworking business.

Essentially, what you’re going to do, as you can see, there are millions of views to be had.

You are going to create content.

You can do this over on TikTok; it doesn’t matter.

You need to focus on one platform to get started.

You can also do this with paid methods.

For example, a few videos ago, I talked about Evelyn Weiss.

Evelyn Weiss uses paid Facebook ads to grow her group.

This group right here is mostly with Facebook ads.

You can create Facebook ads and attract people to you.

Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, or even Pinterest ads can work.

A lot of people don’t talk about Pinterest, but Pinterest ads could be a great place to find people.

You’re just going to run traffic to your group.

You can actually run it directly to your group.

Another thing you could do is use paid ads and send them to a landing page where you collect their name and email.

That goes down to funnel building.

Let’s recap here.

Step number one: pick one niche.

Step number two: get attention.

You can use TikTok or any social media platform, free or paid.

You need to create content to attract people to you.

Once you get eyeballs and attention, you can either send them to a landing page to collect their names and emails or send them directly to your Skool community.

That’s what’s really cool.

If you send them directly to your Skool community, you might want to have a free community to nurture your people.

You’re going to provide additional value.

One way to think about this is if I create an online whiteboard.

You can send them to a landing page where you collect their name and email or directly to Skool.

If you send them to Skool, you probably want to create a free Skool.

A free Skool will take the place of a landing page.

What you’re going to do is nurture them.

You’re going to provide more information and additional value.

The final step is to convert them.

You are going to offer them an irresistible offer.

For example, my Skool community offers a mini-course to help people get started.

It includes case studies of successful YouTube channels, one live Q&A per month, and other benefits—all for just $7 per month.

I also add urgency by saying the regular price is $9.99 and will increase once I hit 60 members.

This is literally how anybody can do it.

If you’re wondering how these people have gotten on the leaderboard, they all follow the exact same process.

They pick a niche.

They focus on one area.

They’re not talking about 10 different things.

People I speak with often try to focus on too many areas at once.

I tell them to focus on one thing in the very beginning.

Get that up and running, then expand.

Decide where you’re going to create content.

Pick one platform to start with.

Each platform gets billions of views every month.

You don’t have to be everywhere if you don’t want to be.

Focus on YouTube if that’s what you want.

Once you pick a platform, you have to become an expert in content creation for that platform.

TikTok, for example, requires more nurturing because people are often unaware of problems or solutions.

On YouTube, people are more aware of their problems and sometimes even the solutions.

You have to meet people where they are.

If you want to be successful, go from 0 to 10K, and get started, I can help.
