Ready to take your Skool Games community to the next level? Discover 11 unconventional strategies to create a buzzing, engaged community your members will love!
Hey there, community builder extraordinaire! π
If you're reading this, I bet you're no stranger to the wild world of community building on Skool Games. You've probably tried all the usual tricks - icebreakers, weekly prompts, maybe even a giveaway or two. But let's be real, sometimes it feels like you're just going through the motions, right? π
Well, buckle up buttercup, because I'm about to share 11 unconventional strategies that will have your Skool community buzzing like a beehive on Red Bull! ππ¨
1. Embrace the Power of Memes πΌοΈ
Look, I know what you're thinking. "Memes? In MY professional community?" But hear me out. Memes are like the secret handshake of the internet. They're a way for your members to bond over shared experiences and inside jokes. Plus, they're just plain fun!
So go ahead, start a weekly meme thread and watch your engagement soar. Just maybe steer clear of the really weird ones, okay? π
2. Host a "Roast Your Industry" Night π₯
You know what they say, laughter is the best medicine. And sometimes, the best way to bond with your community is by poking a little fun at your shared struggles.
Host a "Roast Your Industry" night where members can let loose and share their funniest (and most relatable) stories and jokes about your niche. Just make sure to keep it light-hearted and respectful - we're not trying to start any beef! π₯©
3. Create a "Fail of the Week" Highlight Reel π
Speaking of shared struggles, let's talk about failure. We've all been there - that cringe-worthy moment when you realize you just royally messed up. But instead of sweeping it under the rug, why not celebrate it?
Create a "Fail of the Week" highlight reel where members can submit their most epic fails and learn from each other's mistakes. It's like a group therapy session, but with more laughs! π
4. Start a "Pet of the Week" Showcase πΎ
Let's face it, nothing brings people together like cute animals. So why not leverage the power of fluff for your community?
Start a "Pet of the Week" showcase where members can share photos and stories of their furry (or scaly, or feathered) friends. Not only will it give your members a chance to bond over their shared love of animals, but it'll also add a much-needed dose of cuteness to your community feed. π»
5. Host a "Unpopular Opinion" Debate π£οΈ
Sometimes, the best way to spark engagement is by stirring up a little controversy. But instead of diving into the heavy stuff, keep it light with an "Unpopular Opinion" debate.
Encourage your members to share their most controversial (but harmless) opinions on topics related to your niche. You might be surprised at how passionate people can get about their favorite pizza toppings or the best way to fold socks! π§¦
6. Create a "Member of the Month" Spotlight π
Your members are the heart and soul of your community, so why not show them some love?
Create a "Member of the Month" spotlight where you highlight a different member each month and share their story, accomplishments, and contributions to the community. Not only will it make your featured member feel appreciated, but it'll also encourage others to step up their game and get involved. πͺ
7. Host a "Meme-Making" Contest π
Remember how we talked about the power of memes? Well, it's time to take it to the next level with a "Meme-Making" contest!
Challenge your members to create the funniest, most relatable memes about your niche or industry. Not only will it get your members' creative juices flowing, but it'll also create a treasure trove of content you can share on your social media channels. Win-win! π
8. Start a "Random Acts of Kindness" Challenge π
Kindness is contagious, so why not spread a little love in your community?
Start a "Random Acts of Kindness" challenge where members are encouraged to do something nice for a fellow member or someone in their network. It could be as simple as leaving a kind comment on their post or sending them a virtual gift card. The goal is to create a ripple effect of positivity and goodwill. π
9. Host a "Worst Advice" Competition π©
You know that old saying, "If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning"? Well, it's time to put that into practice with a "Worst Advice" competition!
Encourage your members to share the worst advice they've ever received related to your niche or industry. Not only will it provide some much-needed comic relief, but it'll also serve as a cautionary tale for others. Just make sure to follow it up with some actual good advice, okay? π
10. Create a "Community Cookbook" π³
Food has a way of bringing people together, even in the digital world. So why not create a "Community Cookbook" featuring your members' favorite recipes?
Encourage your members to submit their go-to dishes, along with a little story about why it's special to them. Not only will it give your members a chance to bond over their shared love of food, but it'll also create a unique resource that your community can cherish for years to come. π₯
11. Start a "Gratitude Circle" π
Last but not least, let's talk about gratitude. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and grind of building a community, but it's important to take a step back and appreciate the little things.
Start a "Gratitude Circle" where members can share something they're thankful for each week. It could be something big, like landing a new client, or something small, like a really good cup of coffee. The goal is to create a culture of positivity and appreciation that will permeate throughout your entire community. β€οΈ
