Absolutely Amazing!!!
I was having some problems finding my customers, but Martin made me realize that I wasn't having problems with that, I was having problems with my thoughts. I won't give away his secret (he gave me a gold nugget), but I will say that his method basically gave me an insight into what Ido that will make customers gravitate towards it because I not only KNOW my "why", I understand it on a whole new level. A million thanks to the man Martin Betz! I'm looking forward to continuing my work with him!!

From Interest to Intent, With Trust
This community helped me see sales and customer understanding through a much more precise lens. The discussions improve how you qualify, how you message, and how you move from interest to intent, while keeping a human and trust-based approach. If you are serious about understanding what your customers truly want and turning that into clearer offers and better decisions, Creating Progress is worth your time.

Worth joining
I joined through a recommendation and I have to say that this community is just fabulous. You get top-notch content, it is very well facilitated and most of all you learn a lot about about your customer, positioning yourself and your offerings and how to sell yourself in a better way to increase your revenue.

The skool CLASSIFIEDS helps you win!
Hey, everybody. My name is Matt and I have been a member of the Classifieds now for almost six months, I believe, and it has been awesome. Shannon has cultivated a really cool culture here and everybody is just going around and obviously sharing and promoting, but also reacting to and using it as a vehicle for discovering new communities. So it's been a really, really awesome space to be in and yeah, I'm definitely happy that I joined. So being a member has been really cool because I am able to obviously learn firsthand about all sorts of incredible communities, but as a premium member, I can also go around and promote my community and even do masterclasses inside, which has been really awesome. I've learned a lot from the people who are doing masterclasses. And because you need to think about how to kind of pitch and promote what you're working on, it is also a forcing function, just being there and seeing what's working well for other community builders and how they're going about posting things. And then of course, getting shout outs from other members has been really fun. So other members are using their daily allotment of posting ability to actually even shout me out, which has just inspired me to shout them out. And it's like a really cool reciprocal sort of thing. So I'm really been enjoying being a member in that regard as well. So, if you need practice pitching or promoting or just generally learning how to better share the value of your offer, the Classifieds is a really awesome place to be because you can go and do so and try all sorts of different things all the time. So, it's really special to go and have an environment that welcomes you in doing that, but also you get to see tons of other people going about doing it. So, if you really want to go and grow in that way, I would say that's going to be a good fit. If it wouldn't be a good fit, it's probably going to be people who just want to promote and don't actively want to engage or be a part of the community in any way. If you're just looking to kind of like spit out all your stuff and go and leave, then that's not great. But, you know, if you want to become part of the community, if you want to eventually do a masterclass, you know, you want to contribute and comment there, I think the Classifieds is a great place to be for those kinds of folks. So, for all those of you who fit in that bill, we'll see you inside.
