the skool CLASSIFIEDS vs The Screenwriters Lounge

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.

Trust is a key word

The biggest thing I love about this group is that it's James' group. And I've known James for many months now as a coincidental member in my community. And over those many months, I've known James to always show up, to always be active, and to always be here, asking questions. And having recently joined James' group, and starting my dream of writing a script, which I've never even considered (James confidence inspires me). I know that I'm in the right place and in the right hands. And I have full and complete faith in James and his ability to not only write fantastic scripts. But also to show-up as a coach that can help anybody get to the next level. Even someone like me that has never written more than a few haiku's. I just cant understand why this group is free, but while it is - jump in, the water is warm, the palm trees singing in the island breeze and the gentle waves lap these shores, while we sip margaritas in cozy hammocks, imagining what might one day be....in a script.
