Paid Communities Making $20M a Year & How You Can Build One

Watch on YouTube

Synopsis

Title frames the show on paid communities at $20M/year (the Skool reference frame), but the chapters read as a utility/insurance-flavored deck: Umbrella Insurance, Cons, Chief Data Management Officer. Likely a formatting artifact. Net: episodic paid-community thesis with mixed signals.

Ideas in this episode
