Thank you for the shout out, Jim! Great article. One of the exciting things that Skool is working on is the ability to livestream natively on the platform. That’s going to be huge!

I've been interested to see what Sam Ovens has been doing over at Skool, but think I prefer Substack.

He's got an interesting vibe going on with Alex Hormozi and on YouTube I watched a video (it's long at 2 hours) but really insightful.

If you have a 2 hour flight and want something useful to watch - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yW1Y-Imp2H8

@Jim Banks I am actually looking at combing the use of both of them. The Skool piece for my subscribers where they will get bonus content and engagement that we just can’t quite do on Substack. I think using the two together is how I am looking at it, not as an either/or

I don’t know enough about Skool communities. I am in a few and they are OK but not great.

They tend to be more promotion for the “owner” rather than building a community where other members can help each other.

I’d expect to have the role of the facilitator, not driving all the conversations.

Thank you Jim. I'm looking forward to the new features coming out in Skool where we can do native livestreaming and subscription courses.
