My favorite community experience on Skool at the moment!
CLUES is a special place because of its unique charismatic leader. Ruben ensures an utmost level of integration and organization of all the parts that go into a fleshed out, thriving community. When you decide to go with the current no-brainer offer that gets you the Premium package at a heavily reduced price, Ruben personally audits your community within days! The feedback provided is very very helpful. There are so many things for you to improve upon that only an outsider can notice. Except not just any outsider, but one who knows how to engineer the near-perfect Skool community culture in their own community. Inside CLUES, this dedication to excellence is on the daily agenda.

Curiosity Leaves CLUES
I have enjoyed the challenges and how my own curiosity has been re-sparked. A great community of adventurers supporting each other.

Curiosity is what drives us all - especially inside CLUES
Ruben is amazing guy, always curious and friendly, making everyone feel great. I’ve joined to learn what works and what not for making my own community engage better, and I’ve learned many lessons just seeing what Ruben does and how he interacts with everyone.

Helps Keep me Focused & Accountable
This is a great community for ADHD Founders. I love the 'Eat That Frog' Sessions where I can show up to work with others, commit to getting something done, and celebrate actually doing the thing I wouldn't probably have done without this community. Bill and Rex are AMAZING! Highly recommended.

Where ADHD Entrepreneurs Actually Build
I joined Focus Founders because I didn’t need more advice—I needed traction and a community that understands how ADHD actually shows up for those of us trying to launch our own businesses. What I found was a group culture that’s generous, direct in a helpful way, and genuinely invested in boosting each other up. The tone is "online family," and the occasional (constructive) competition made it super-easy to show up consistently. I have made more progress toward escaping my 9-5 in the three months since I joined than I did in the previous fifteen years of struggling alone. If you’re an ADHD entrepreneur who wants support that turns into action and a room that feels like real humans supporting one another, then Focus Founders is worth a look.
