Building a Paid Community on Skool: My 3-Month Review & Insights
|
Hi Reader, If you’re a course creator, coach, or community builder, chances are you’ve come across Skool. A growing platform designed to bring education and community under one roof. In 2025, Skool has continued to gain traction as an all-in-one solution for hosting content, managing members, and building recurring revenue. But what are my thoughts on the platform after spending 3 month building a community on Skool? After personally using Skool (for three months) to run a self-publishing community, I wanted to share my experience and help you decide whether it’s the right platform for you. While I eventually paused my community and focussed on building my brand using Thinkific, the lessons I learned and the potential I saw left the door open for a future return.
