“I went, ‘Wait, this is really important.’ It became my passion project. I spent hours and hours every week for months and years cultivating and growing this community. Then, at a certain point I realized, ‘Oh wait, I can't sustain this without an income.”
“One of the things we'd love to do is make it easy for members to book one-on-one sessions, and the features within Mighty make it very easy for them to do that. That not only increases revenue for the company, but it also allows our coaches to make this their career.”
“The NCIDQ was providing some online resources, but they were pretty minimal. The only other option was to attend a live workshop in your local area. But you had to have a specific number of people together. And if you didn’t get that number the workshop was canceled. It just wasn’t viable.”
“We have put a good number of our clients on Mighty Networks, and we'll continue to do so.”
“If you are involved in the legal industry, this is not a lawyer-only community. This is a community of those that are in the legal industry that wants to help change the legal system to be more anti-racist and care about people’s well-being.”
“We had been running our two businesses, we had written a book, we were managing communities, we were planning in-person events, and we were still podcasting every single week. We got to a point where we were just like, ‘No more new things'."
“99% of our members come from word-of-mouth referral. We couldn't ask for anything better than that.”
“We were selling everything through our website store that hadn’t been updated since 2017. Folks would place an order, check out, and then be emailed a zip file of Powerpoint presentations. They’d have to print their tests, scan them and email it back into the company for results. It was painful.”
“I've always looked for ways to connect people. I don’t want them looking to me for answers, but instead lifting each other up on the way to achieving their goals. These deeper connections have been my priority this year–to build relationships between the most motivated people in our 48 Days Eagles community. And to do it, I wanted a place where we didn't have a lot of distractions and intrusions, where people felt it was just ours."
"We tell every creator we know to get on Mighty Pro. Last year, we earned over $900,000 and helped 6,000 members achieve breakthroughs in their life.”
“I can spend all day long on all the other social networks. And as much as I would love to do that, it’s not what keeps the lights on.”
“With our course offerings, regular live events, and weekly 'office hours,' I’m able to create a rhythm for our members that’s also totally manageable for me. We plan quarterly and give our members a ton of things to look forward to.”
“There were a lot of resources on how to do the work better. But there wasn’t a lot out there that enabled us to make connections with each other around the topics that had no easy or obvious answers–our health, our service, our own grounding and practices. It was obvious that to answer these questions, we needed to build a community.”
“They basically said, ‘You create the course and we’ll sell it,’ but they never sold it. It was rough because it was a lot of work. But afterward, I thought, ‘I need to do this on my own."
"We were trying to find something that was more about us and less about the platform we were using."
