Happy Good Friday EduCreator,

Our One Click Creator Product Launch event is in just one week! This will be our opportunity to show off what we’ve been building as a community, and as individual personal brands. We’ve been learning and building together, now is the time to let it be known and invite our communities to support us with their presence.

Thanks to computers and machines now understanding language, we can build custom tech solutions for our community using a set of clear, step-by-step instructions (prompts). With tools like ChatGPT (paid version) and Poe (free), we can train and build chatbots based on our own knowledge and pretty much all of the knowledge that exists in the world. This is a HUGE opportunity, and it is only the beginning.

With tools like AI Tutor, we can also create code. This is a major advancement in technology that most of the world knows nothing about. It’s up to us to learn as the early adopters so we can teach others, and build tools for the infinite number of use cases that exist.

As a community member, you are invited to join us for our launch event (add to calendar) and promote your product or service. This will be a heavily promoted event, so don’t miss this opportunity to boost your business or project. To participate, reply to this email with a link to your product or service (at least a landing page).

Mini-Lesson: The power of building community around custom solutions

Community is a powerful growth strategy for both creator building custom solutions and SaaS (software as a service) companies. By building an engaged community around their product, SaaS creators can drive growth in several ways[1][2][3][4]:

- Community members provide valuable feedback to improve the product and guide its development[1][2]. This helps ensure the SaaS offering meets customer needs.

- Community advocates become passionate brand ambassadors, driving word-of-mouth referrals that bring in new high-quality leads at low cost[1][3][4].

- An active community increases customer retention and lifetime value, as members feel invested in the product's success[1][2].

- Building a community ecosystem with integrations and partnerships can make the SaaS product indispensable to users[1].

- A thriving community is seen as an asset that can increase a SaaS company's valuation when seeking investment or acquisition[4].

The key is to nurture the community from the start, providing value beyond just the product itself[1][2][3]. This community-first approach has been a growth driver for successful SaaS brands like Lemlist, Slack, and Notion[1][5].
