Gregory Benedikt ran a 17-day challenge in his community and converted members into a seven-person paid monthly membership, then recruited four people into his group coaching program. He credits Stacy Lauren's Wealth Experiment for teaching him to take messy action and launch his own online community and coaching program.
Chapters
If you're looking to start an online community, if you're looking to start a group coaching program, if you're looking to start a membership, you absolutely have to work with Stacy. So I started by working with her in her wealth experiment, which is a group coaching program. And while I was in that, I launched my online community and I started my first group coaching program. They were both around taking bold action, which is super meaningful for me. So I'm now a leader of the Bold Action community and I have the Bold Action accelerator, which is a four month group coaching program. And I launched both of those because I spent time in Stacy's world and she showed me that I can take messy, imperfect action to get started. And I don't have to wait until I'm ready. I can learn the lessons I need to learn along the way. So I launched my online community. A bunch of people joined, which was awesome. And then it got really quiet in there. And that was my biggest fear, that was what kept me stuck, stuck for two years, is I was afraid that I would start a community, get a bunch of people to join, and then it would be silent in there. That happened and I realized that it wasn't that bad and I could make a small pivot to bring life back into it. And so what I ended up doing is I ran Stacey's 17 day find your voice challenge in my community and that community came back to Life. I took 15 people through this challenge and they were so activated and alive. And it went so well, that challenge, that I decided that I wanted to create a monthly membership for my community. Instead of having a big group that's silent and mostly full of lurkers, I now have seven people who are paying me monthly. They're bought in, they're committed, they're alive. And I started a membership through working with Stacy. So again, if you want to have a membership, an online community, a group coaching program, I have four people in my group coaching program, and that was through working with Stacy and having a my people party. All of the things you want are attainable if you work with Stacy. If you surround yourself with the right people and you start taking messy, imperfect action.
