There’s A Disruptor Among the Community Building World & Alex Hormozi Is Backing It — Meet Skool
Do you have a Facebook Group? Or better yet, are you a Facebook group member at all? Let me introduce you to a small but mighty community-building powerhouse that’s disrupting the world of membership platforms.
Say hello to Skool — the community-building platform built with content creators in mind.
With Facebook’s extremely limited features coupled with unhappy group admins, where is the best place to turn to so you can have hassle-free community management where you have control over your platform? Again, Skool. It’s the new Facebook Group for community owners.
As a Solopreneur & content creator myself, using the Skool platform was a no-brainer. It’s an all-in-one package for people like me to create my tribe, write and educate for my #tribe, and monetize it in a variety of creative and resourceful ways. Let me outline why it’s so special.
What’s so special about the Skool Community Platform?
✦ Gamification system — community owners can set custom levels for members. With its point system (awarded for community participation), members can unlock exclusive classroom modules.
✦ Leaderboards — as part of its unique gamification system, the leaderboard encourages others to be proactive members of the groups they belong to. As an admin, you decide how to reward those who contribute.
✦ Course-specific access — with a free group, you still get to monetize it with the ability to lock specific modules for paid members only using a special invite link.
✦ Communities in one platform — join the ever-growing list of communities in one platform. No more jumping from one website to another or one forum to another.
✦ Private messaging — send and receive private DMs across your community memberships easily. The opportunity for great partnerships lies over here.

As for all the other industries or hobbyists out there, this may just be the beginning of something new for you that could potentially help you monetize your brand or passion in a myriad of surprising ways.
