in this video I will show you exactly how to set up your own School community so you would want to come here say create community and then give it a group name tester setup group then you need to enter your payment details and then you start your free trial okay few things to do first first settings here you see we have no paid m no M no coures we also don't have any payments yet here we can invite people to our group in general and um if we want to get them in this will just send them the link to the about page okay where they can purchase and request to join the membership if you want to invite someone uh we have to send them an email here we can also bul invite people with the CSV file now General here we want to upload an icon and a cover for the group and of course we have those resources for you so in the classroom and resources a to set oh sorry it is under School resources we have all of our templates as well so school about page cover for examp about page banners there you go now let me download one here and here this icon is just 128 * 128 so let's do a custom resize then in your case copy and resize and I'd actually recommend keeping this really really simple or really easy to read so here we just have your logo and now we can already upload it here in the tester group so here you can give your group a name you can change the color of your group so let's say we actually want this to be more in alignment with what we have here so can change our group color and we can also change our initials now we have a group description so where does this show up the group description shows up here on the side right and so here I would have an audience call out which is uh people who are stuck on their offer sales copy ads fun promo strategies and then um what they what people should join for right so I'm going to do something that I want to share with you whenever you find something that you like you can say can you take this and turn it into a template that works for any um offer and then I need to say characters okay keep it under 150 characters struggling with I've got a solution join to receive okay for desired outcome and then you can go through basically also the school sorry about that you can also go through the school Discovery uh page discover communities look for for I would recommend um if you're having a free group look for free if you're having a paid group look for paid look for the space that you're in and then you can see um different descriptions and you can decide um if you want to design a template for you out of that now for this and if you found a few templates that that you like let's do that actually now synthesize I don't know how to write this but you get the point um the best from all of these to a template with 150 characters Max action your business platform learn key skills get support time from um refund um okay give me an example of how I can use this I help people create their perfect capsule wardrobe now I need to think I made it think a lot I feel right create your perfect learn style Essentials expert gon for day satisfaction guarantee join now capsule confidence okay I feel like it can be tweaked but you get the idea then you can say update setting now here you can uh set a custom URL important you cannot change this so when you claim your url you would want to be pretty sure about uh what you would want to do with it now subscription here's where you add the price you can only have one active price at a time you need to set up your bank so here you need to select your country for example Austria continue and then uh it's very very simple from a setup you put your email then it sends you a verification code then you just enter your bank details so that none of this should be uh difficult just going back here here now because this is really something you should be able to get up alone if you need help of course please reach out okay now we have that set up next we have categories so though if you're setting up categories here they will appear here and so the categories that I think are always good is wins I think it's great to have peer support I think it's great to have urgent help and I think it's great to have updates um and you know um I personally also like behind the scenes and fun don't forget about the fun and then in the um in the update category I would make sure that only you can post admins and um admins can post any VI one can view so that there's one category that's kind of your news channel for members and you can move them up and down depending on how you want to steer your category so maybe you want peer support first and then you want to have urgant help and then you want to have wins and then you want to have fun and then you want to have updates and then behind the scenes for example not have here you could toggle on or off your classroom or calendar what are your classroom or calendar your classroom is where your courses live right and here you can have a welcome classroom and then um how to get start here to get the most out of your membership um and here we have open to all members obviously the first one you want to have open you can unlock at a certain level so if you want to give incentives uh for people to engage you can have a certain course for example unlocking at a certain members level you can have in membership purchases to upgrade you can have time unlock so if members are for example members for 32 days right they stay a second month then you can uh unlock something for them and then private is you select specific members that have access to something so let's say you have a onetoone clients and they get additional resources you can have a private um classroom just for them okay and then you can let's add this as open and again here You' want to select the covers conveniently this is the same size as the about page cover and now you can add your course now in the course we have two different things we have pages and folders so folder is um module I would say they are modules and then we in modes we can add a page and I personally feel like those are lessons but you know school is kind of unique about naming them and you can drag them up and down so for example duplicate the lesson here and then you need to say for example lesson two but now here's the thing that sometimes R me off is you need to say publish for the changes actually to be published here you have a simple editor you can upload images you can link videos this is YouTube Vimeo Loom or Vista a lot of people in school work with loom it works really really well so this is the classroom the calendar here you can create all kinds of events and um here from the setup it's pretty straightforward you can uh connect with me the address you can give a link you need to select the time when it starts the duration and you can also say members at a certain level can come or members who are part of a certain course can come right so if you have Exclusive Calls for example that are hidden behind um the um premium upgrade then you can say for example only members who are part of that premium update can visit the the call right so here but let's say all members and then here people can add the event to their calendar in here you're able to see your members you can filter by different criteria when somebody purchases your course let me just quickly show you this in gr with evidence so when somebody purchases your course you see the sales coming in here basically and then you can filter by the members and you can see who bought what paid thing and then um basically you can see them from there here you see people that are cancelling and then you see people that are churned you can export all of that um and I personally have also set up an integration with sapier so school to sapier um school to active campaign sapier integration so here we have a um let me just show you in my actual sapier account maybe I can share the app with you because I feel like it changed something on that so that it did work Subs yeah so when somebody purchases a school membership then I create or update the contact so this event the app is school event is new paid member then I create or update a contact in active campaign the list is was digital offer Builders um but it's basically a list for those members specifically and then you get the ID so I will actually see if I can share the sub with you share template yeah so I'll make sure to give you the template for that sub now leaderboards this is where people get in incentives for when they engage in the group and you know based on what I showed you right now you can set up benefits so I have on level two is chat with all members then we have um the access to the live Q&A hot seat and training replay vot then when people reach level seven they get a free membership in grow with Evelyn when people reach level eight which currently only I am they get 30-day VIP mentoring with me so um School leaderboard point system so here I will also give you um an idea for how many points um here's the progression of how many you need shout out to Sarah monana um so you see that it becomes more and more and more difficult to reach the next level and basically um to level up is you need to earn points when others like your post or comments so it's about collecting likes and the more engaged your community is the less likely people are to to leave to turn which is why you want to set up leaderboard incentives and then you have your about page and this is where you can upload um images and video sales letters so I very recently created for you guys a video sales letter Creator this is here for the the about page okay so this one we definitely want to have I'm I'm starting a resource DOC for you so this one we definitely want to add here then we also want to add the banners there I'm going to share this as a template and I also very recently created a new updated writing guide for the about page template and you can find this here under the a to set resources about page writing guide and template so this is here for your about page okay now let me go back into this new community I just found I just found it um now a few more tabs to go through so these tabs we toggled on plugins now here it's important we can work with autod DM to send members messages with limited time offers to increase the average order value of our group or to make our group self liquidating if it's a free group so in here we can make people a time sensitive offer you know if you book within the next 72 hours you get the my one week of Whata boy support for 70% off right something crazy now another plugin that I want you to make you aware of is setting the up the meta pixel tracking I have a detailed video about this you would want to turn it on connect the pixel you need to enter your pixel ID which is your data set ID and then your access token which you find under the settings in your events manager I have a separate video for that um School pixel integration video and I'm going to link it for you with somewhere in grow with Evelyn and that should be set up those are the two plugins that I use now here you see the members that were active in the past 30 days and then the the total active members here you see the gamification how many people unlocked what so let me go back here as well here you see how many percentage of members um have unlocked what now the discovery page is where you ranking on the school Discovery page remember the discovery page is this one here and if you're ranking up high you can get quite a few um organic members from ranking up high and how high you rank is based on your engagement score um so this is a discovery rank the a majority is uh engaged the more engaged your group is the higher you rank so I'm categorized in a category personal development although it should be business um I might reach out to them and I'm at rank 93 at the moment um you can add links to your group so I recently added this map which is a subscription it's called School map and basically um here our members can enter where they are on the world and then you see a map that it's a monthly um School Community also that that you're part of but for example you can add this link here and say grow with um or um who's growing uh growth map let's just call it growth map in my case because it's growth Evelyn and then we can say it's public for example so people can now see the growth map you could also for example have you know book a free Discovery call here would also be a really really good idea to set it up and then here you have billing and referrals and here's just my billing method and my referral links I am what I've not super found out yet I I basically always can only exit this from the school community under Affiliates I can see how much I've earned um but I haven't fully figured out where to find it in here now a few more things uh in school in general you have your profile that you can complete um here you have your account here you can manage your passwords notification settings super super important to customize your notification settings per group otherwise you will lose your mind chat you can um set on notification and you can get email notifications about that then communities drag and drop the order of the communities right so you can pin communities here for example I don't want to pin this anymore I want to pin grow with Evelyn I want to pin the membership mentoring I want to pin my alumini I want to pin David's new era Pathfinder and I want to pin Julia's summer mentoring um and I want to pin my tester group so now you have the groups pinned on the side then oh here you have your referrals I guess as well then your payment methods payment history and then theme is just if you want it light or dark this is the quickest rundown that I can give you on setting up um your own school and and school in general please let me know if you have any questions I'm going to link the resources thank you
