I don't get youtube. Just looked at your channel and you have well over 1000 videos and only 4k subscribers. I checked out your videos and they are really good. Way better than a some other videos on the same topic. I mean, what in the actual f**k

[@StephenGPope]

Thanks Miro, appreciate the words. It can be frustrating at times but it's best to just pushing forward. Thanks for the support!

[@c.athompson9280]

It's the lunatic algorithm. There are so many exceptional teaching videos on KZbin with low subscribers and views. Try putting the name of your channel at the end of EVERY video title. That's one thing I've noticed with channels that get picked up by the algorithm. Keep pushing. This video has amazing views.

[@NursesToRiches]

It's all about the title and the thumbnail.. You gotta have both locked down if you want to grow on KZbin because you first have to get people to watch the video in order to have them wanting to come back for more.

[@TrevorFosterTheFosterDojo]

It's because marketing channels are grody to KZbin

[@abdullatiforakzai]

Well ​@@StephenGPope I can grow your channel just by giving you some advices according to KZbin and just little bit of changes you need to make to your channel . Feel free to reply to this comments and will try to share more knowledge with you.

Thank you for your video , I have discovered Skool recently and I am really passionate about creating community! If I may say a lot of videos similar to this how I made X amount for short period of time with Skool , however it is clear that you have put a lot of work into this and also that you are a qualified professional with different skills such as building marketing funnels , converting ,upselling and not to mention your core skills content creation , so a lot of work has been put prior making the revenue for approximately 3 weeks just my 2 cents , awesome video and job though no cap!

[@StephenGPope]

very valid point, it wasn't solely a community strategy.

[@buildbaseworld]

Mr. Pope, I cant believe your uploading content like this for free. Its absolutely insane and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Youve really helped a trashy beginner like me.

Would love to see a video of your airtable content automation process - how you set everything up, how you organise, automations, etc - I find I struggle to manage content organisation and get caught up trying to organise/manage content more than produce it...

Very inspirational! Just found your channel and love the way you operate. Exactly what I'm looking to do, as I can't be bothered with sales calls lol... 1-3k product (perhaps a subscription) and just scale it to the moon.

great minds think alike = )

[@NurtureKit]

Thank you for sharing this! -- I love the simplicity of the funnel and how you have it mapped out for clarity. Plus bringing to light that it's never done. One question a bit unrelated to the video content, what tool are you using to draw the arrows on the screen?

[@StephenGPope]

it's an mac app called demo pro, thanks for the feedback.

How big is your team to generate 250 pieces of content every week? Are they all international or do you have domestic? What is your total payroll for this team each month?

Why do people talking about sales talk very fast in one long run on sentence and in a monotone voice ?

Insane value Stephen! Just two questions, do you automate everything with Zapier or do you use another tool? And how do you get that arrow, very useful!

[@natoguajardo]

This is excellent. When they purchase the PAID program do you move them to a different Skool where the paid members are?

[@StephenGPope]

the course is in the same group but I do have a Slack channel they can access

[@socialkingmastery]

From your experience is it better to have free community with upsell, or a paid community?

When make 100 content in a week how much do you pay your editors and is the quality good? Do you have a video for creating a content team?

[@VAVIBEATS]

Great video, thank you! How many people go from your free community to your paid program (%)? Thanks!

[@StephenGPope]

that's a great question, but I don't have that number.

[@chriswe67]

What did you use to make your course? , How much did it cost? What did you use to create your course? teachable? could one use an AI generated course?

[@StephenGPope]

I used Skool, $97/month. I wouldn't make an AI generated course.

[@leonesavabel3651]

Hi, this can be made by someone that dont have a previous community in any social media? Im worried how much months i would have to pay the 100 bucks until i start generating income.

Question: you use a lot of thir party softwares. How much do you spend in a month for all those softwares? Around 1k dollars?

[@StephenGPope]

skool is $99/month, ThriveCart was a 1 time purchase. Typeform is $60/month, Zapier is $30/month, about that.

You are awesine Stephen! Just one question, at what stage and when do you collect the testimonials? These are from the paid subscribers right? so do you offer them any discount or any freebie to leave the testimonial? What makes them leave the review for me apart from the good product/service?

each week I have a reminder to ask 1-2 clients for testimonials. I've been offering 1 extra month of support for a good testimonial.

Hi man, do I set up a free Skool community first then try to get people into a paid Skool community from there ? Or could I just set up the paid Skool community from the get go?

[@tonezic]

Thanks for the video. my main concern is how do we make people transition from the free community to paid when the community is brand new and there are no people inside. do we just offer people presells for a discounted price and then do a big launch or how do we actually go about it?

[@StephenGPope]

I'd just try and keep it simple

[@theaiconsultantuk]

I'd like to hear more on the last point - finding and supporting and encouraging/motivate the core members as I agree that those 20% of 20% say or 10% of 10% are the ones who can really help with a group. What steps do you recommend? Thanks

[@StephenGPope]

yea I need to think about it because its not a specific process, its like thoughtful action each day. I'll try and come up with something and tag you in it, if I come up with something good.

Are there people or services out there that would build this out for someone and take a revenue share?

​@@StephenGPope Skool ain't free. It's all just a scam, a fraud, a pyramid scheme rip-off. We're constantly told we can get something for free, but we have to pay $99/month for reaching the next step or to start our own channel. But why pay for something you could do on LinkedIn, KZbin, Facebook, Quora, Reddit, where it's really free? What is $99/month worth? What exactly are you buying? What do you get out of it? Why the heck would someone who found their pot of gold tell you where they found it? - Exactly...it's nothing but a Honeypot.
