Community Builders HQ is one of the most valuable communities I have joined on...
Community Builders HQ is one of the most valuable communities I have joined on Skool. Lidia does not simply share generic advice about growing a community. She takes the time to understand what you are building, identify what is not working, and help you find practical solutions. She recently spent an hour with me diagnosing the problems in my communities. She asked thoughtful questions, challenged my assumptions, and helped me see issues I had been too close to recognize on my own. I left the conversation with greater clarity, a stronger strategy, and a much better understanding of what I needed to change. The community itself is filled with useful guidance, honest feedback, and people who genuinely want to help one another succeed. It is an excellent place for anyone who is serious about building, growing, or monetizing an online community. For anyone who has joined the free community but has not upgraded to the paid membership, you are missing out on an incredible amount of additional value. The personalized support and deeper insights alone make it worthwhile.

Lidia Axe's 30 Day Hackathon was the tonic I needed to help me kick start a new online business
Lidia Axe's 30 Day Hackathon was the tonic I needed to help me kick start a new business. Her step by step approach enabled me to quickly build the solid foundations needed for a successful skool community. I love her approach to keeping things simple and she is totally without the BS hype that "2 minute gurus" espouse as the only way to run an online business...very refreshing and the way to build trust.

Woo hoo! I finally reached 100 members 🎉
Woo hoo! I finally reached 100 members 🎉 Big thanks to @Lidia Axe and her 30-Day Skool Hackathon. One thing Lidia really helped me with was getting out of my own head. I tend to overthink a lot when it comes to my community, but she always gave me clear, actionable steps to focus on instead of trying to figure everything out at once. Looking back, I honestly think it was her guidance, feedback and the little tweaks along the way that helped me reach 100+ members today. Thanks again, Lidia 🙏

Super Helpful
I find Meta intimidating as heck. Setting up ads manager is basically one of my nightmares. Luckily, Tim is not only an expert in everything Meta related, but he's also really good at guiding and explaining things in easy-to-digest bites. Thanks for all the help!

The Metaverse Savior!
This community is exceptionally help and Tim is half man half amazing. I tried to setup things myself before the community and Tim had me up and running in a few days.
