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

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.

Iron Circle Christian Men’s Group
The Iron Circle has been a real blessing in my life. It’s a place where men can be honest about where they are, sharpen one another, and grow in faith without pretense. There’s accountability, encouragement, and brotherhood here. What stands out most is the focus on Jesus and real transformation. It’s not about performance or image. It’s about becoming better men, better husbands, better fathers, and better followers of Christ. Grateful to be part of a group that values truth, humility, and growth. If you’re looking for authentic Christian brotherhood, this is it.
