Community Builders HQ on Skool vs "Your Best Course" Build Lab

Lidia's energy and commitment to her members is boundless.

Lidia's energy and commitment to her members is boundless. She's just not happy until her people see success too. The thing I love about this community is that it's not just telling you HOW to build, but Lidia's actually modeling what it takes to do it. Nothing fake, no "easy buttons", no BS, no smoke and mirrors. Just practical, transparent, real talk and action. Highly recommend!

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.

Building a course? Build Lab will help you make it a standout.

Shannon is such a wealth of knowledge and inspiration. I joined Build Lab late in the game... my course was already built out and launched. But as I'm going through the classroom here, I'm finding so many opportunities for improvement. Most coaches just say "build a course, you'll make money!" But Shannon actually teaches you HOW to do it. With grace, patience, and encouragement every step of the way.

High-Impact, High-Value Support for Course Creators

Shannon is truly the best of the best when it comes to course creation. She has an incredible ability to break down the process in a way that makes it clear, doable, and meaningful, especially for those of us who want to teach with real impact and create high-quality courses. What sets Shannon apart is not just her expertise, but how she shows up. She brings in thoughtful guest experts who genuinely complement the course-creation process, is responsive and present with questions and needs inside the community, and has built a cohesive, supportive space for creators. I’ve used her framework to build two signature courses, and I continue to come back to it. If you’re serious about creating courses that are well-designed, aligned, and effective, Shannon and The Build Lab need to be part of your plan.
