STRUGGLING WITH LOW ENGAGEMENT, SILENT LURKERS, POOR ONBOARDING, OR A SKOOL COMMUNITY THAT FEELS DISORGANIZED? If members are joining but not participating, getting lost after signing up, or your community feels more like a content library than a Engaged community, you're in the right place. I'm a Skool Community Strategist who helps coaches, creators, and business owners build communities that members actually want to engage with, not just join. I specialize in designing community systems that improve onboarding, activate lurkers, increase member retention, and create an experience that keeps people coming back. I've built and scaled multiple Skool communities from the ground up, turning ideas into engaged, revenue-generating communities. One community grew from 1 paid member to 90+ paying members in just 30 days. Another had 148 free members when I came on board; through strategic community management, engagement systems, and an improved member experience, it now has 43 active paid members with significantly higher participation and retention. Those results weren't driven by luck or constant promotion, they came from building the right systems. A well-structured Skool community creates momentum, encourages participation, and gives members a reason to stay, engage, and invest. โญโญโญโญโญ "Precious took my project to increase my Skool community engagement and members and really made the work her own. She is a problem solver. I know I can trust her with my community. She requires no micromanaging and truly is a gift for my business. She has a great understanding and handle of English and is so easy to work with. Precious is trustworthy, detail-oriented, reliable, and completes tasks assigned to her quickly and efficiently."

You log into your Circle or Skool community, and it's gone quiet. New members join but never come back. Existing members stop posting. Conversations fade, engagement drops, and you're left wondering why people aren't sticking around. I've stepped into communities at exactly that stage and turned them into spaces where members participate consistently, renew their memberships, and become advocates instead of silent subscribers. I'm Top Rated on Upwork with a 100% Job Success Score across 29 completed contracts. As I write this I'm 186 hours into a single Circle.so implementation for one client; the kind of engagement that only happens when the work holds up over months rather than days. "He demonstrated a strong understanding of Circle.so communities, onboarding, engagement and retention strategies. The audit was detailed, actionable, and professionally organized with practical recommendations." - Tubily "Not only did he execute the project in a timely manner, his preparation for the tasks was top notch. A+ for organization." - Drake, AMMC "Highly recommended! Emmanuel is outstanding." - Ron D, ETF guide WHO I WORK WITH - Creators launching a new Circle or Skool community from scratch - Founders with an existing community that's losing engagement - Businesses that need structured onboarding, member support, and systems that keep people active without the founder being online all day WHAT I BUILD -Complete Circle.so and Skool community setups; spaces, classrooms, courses, events, discussions and knowledge bases, structured so members can actually find things -Member onboarding journeys; welcome flows, first-week sequences, and the prompts that turn a signup into a participant -Engagement and retention systems; gamification, points and levels, accountability structures, event rhythms, discussion prompts that people answer - Course and membership setup; modules, lessons, access tiers, member segmentation and tagging for different journeys - Automations; onboarding, welcome sequences, event reminders, inactivity re-engagement and course delivery, built with Circle and Skool workflows plus Zapier and Make - Community audits; a full review of structure, navigation, onboarding and engagement, with a prioritised list of what to fix first - Team enablement; moderator training, SOPs and documentation so your community runs without depending on me ACROSS MY CAREER -80+ Circle and Skool communities built and optimised for coaches, consultants, educators, agencies and membership brands - 15K+ active members managed across coaching and education communities - Onboarding redesigns that lifted member retention by around 40% in the first 90 days - Engagement systems that raised participation by 65%+ HOW I WORK - I start by walking your community as a new member would, so I can see what they see rather than what you intended. - I tell you what I'd fix first and why, before you commit to anything. - I build in a structure you can maintain yourself, and I document it. Communities fail when the only person who understands the setup leaves. - I test the full member journey; signup, onboarding, course access, notifications; before anything goes live. COMMON QUESTIONS - Can you fix a community that's already built but has gone quiet? Yes, that's most of my work. Give me guest or admin access and I'll tell you what's actually causing the drop-off before you spend anything. - Do you work with Circle.so, Skool, or both? Both, extensively. I'll also tell you honestly which one fits your model better if you haven't committed yet; they suit different kinds of communities. - Can you migrate a community from one platform to another? Yes, between Circle, Skool, Kajabi and GoHighLevel memberships, including courses, member data and access tiers. - Can you set up courses inside the community? Yes. Classrooms, modules, lessons, resources, drip schedules and access levels for free versus paid members. - Do you manage the community day to day, or only build it? Both. Some clients want a build and handover with documentation. Others keep me on monthly for moderation, engagement and events. I'm happy either way. - How long does a full setup take? A focused community build is usually 7 to 14 days. An audit with a prioritised fix list takes 2 to 3 days. - What does it cost? Most projects land between $450 and $1,800 depending on scope. Audits start at $150. My minimum engagement is $150. Send me a message or your idea OR your community and let's begin.

Hi there! Iโ€™m Emmanuel , a Funnel Designer, Community Builder, and Automation Specialist with 4+ years of experience helping coaches, course creators, and online businesses build high-converting funnels and engaging communities. I work across platforms such as GoHighLevel, Systeme.io, ClickFunnels (Classic & 2.0), Kajabi, Circle.so, Skool, Whop, Mighty Networks, Kartra, FG Funnels, DropFunnels and more, so your entire client journey from opt-in to community to upsell feels seamless. I've built more than 200 profitable, high-converting sales funnel design and landing pages from scratch all through my career. I've also given clients insightful advice on how to optimize their funnels for the highest possible conversion rates. I have also helped clients generate over $150k in online sales while improving their customer experience and back-end systems. -------------------------------------------------------------- HOW I CAN I BE OF ASSISTANCE: I not only construct beautiful landing page and sales funnel designs, but I also make sure they are free of flaws and well optimized for conversions before launching. If your situation looks like this: โœ… Funnels get clicks but not enough conversions โœ… Tech is messy (multiple tools, nothing talking to each other) โœ… Your community is set up but feels quiet or unstructured โœ… Onboarding, emails, and follow-ups are mostly manual โ€ฆthen thatโ€™s where I come in. I bring design, strategy, and automation together so your systems not only look good, they actually perform. -------------------------------------------------- SERVICES I OFFER: ๐Ÿ”น Funnel & Landing Page Design Custom, high-converting funnels built inside: GoHighLevel, Systeme.io, ClickFunnels, Kajabi, Kartra, FG Funnels, DropFunnels, Simvoly, Leadpages, Unbounce. Includes: โœ… Opt-in pages, sales pages, webinar funnels, application funnels โœ… Upsells, downsells, order bumps and thank-you pages โœ… Mobile-friendly layouts and clear user journeys ๐Ÿ”น Community & Program Setup I design and configure communities for: Circle.so, Skool, Mighty Networks, Kajabi, Thinkific, Teachable. Includes: โœ… Spaces & Space Groups / room structure and navigation โœ… Course & content organization ( Modules & Lessons ) โœ… Member onboarding flows โœ… Event and live session structure โœ… Engagement systems (posts, challenges, weekly themes, Q&A, etc.) ๐Ÿ”น Automations & Integrations I connect your tools so things โ€œjust happenโ€: โœ… Payment gateways & Stripe/PayPal checkout โœ… Email marketing & CRM (ActiveCampaign, Mailchimp, ConvertKit, HubSpot, etc.) โœ… Automations for onboarding, tagging, segmentation, and follow-ups โœ… Integrations with webinar platforms (WebinarJam, Zoom) โœ… Zapier / Make (Integromat) based workflows -------------------------------------------------------------- PLATFORMS I USE EFFICIENTLY: โœ… Clickfunnels Classic โœ… Clickfunnels 2.0 โœ… Systeme.io โœ… Circle.so โœ… Mighty Network โœ… Gohighlevel (GHL) โœ… Skool โœ… Fg Funnels โœ… Drop Funnels โœ… Thinkific, Teachable, Podia Other platforms includes Kajabi, Kartra, Simvoly, Unbounce and lead pages to mention but a few. -------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT: ๐Ÿฅ‡Coding implementation in funnels: I know how to use CSS Codes in funnel builders, so I can add features that aren't usually possible in their native editors. These includes FAQ accordions, carousels, on-scroll animations, active navigation menus, hover effects, etc. ๐Ÿฅ‡Paying close attention to detail: I make sure that the layout, typography, and color scheme of all the landing pages and funnels I create are flawless. ๐Ÿฅ‡ On time delivery & Effective Communication : I am very fluent in spoken english , i love communicating , my response rate is right on time and i deliver my project when expected. -------------------------------------------------------------- TESTIMONIALS FROM PAST CLIENTS: "Makinde exceeded my expectations by successfully integrating Clickfunnels with our email journey, showcasing exceptional technical skills. I wholeheartedly recommend him!" โญโญโญโญโญ- Steven Kuhn "Makinde's work was fast and professional, and he consistently met deadlines. I am definitely going to hire him again soon and also i will recommend him for landing pages gigs to my business partners." โญโญโญโญโญ-Breezy -------------------------------------------------------------- READY TO WORK WITH ME ?

Skool expert hiring guide

A thriving Skool community rarely runs itself. Members sign up, then stall without onboarding, structure, and consistent engagement. A Skool expert turns a quiet or disorganized community into an active space that keeps members around and supports your courses or membership revenue.

What does a Skool expert do?

A Skool expert builds, organizes, and grows communities on the Skool platform so members stay active and get value. They pair platform setup with daily community management and retention strategy, so a community that stalls after signup becomes a place members return to.

  • Set up the community structure, including spaces, classroom, levels, and gamification

How to hire a Skool expert on Upwork

Hiring a Skool expert on Upwork follows four steps. Post a clear job, evaluate relevant community work, interview your finalists, and agree on scope before work begins. It is a proven path, since 89% of first-time clients complete a contract on Upwork. The following steps show what to prioritize when hiring for community management work.

Step 1: Post a job

Start by writing a job post that spells out the Skool work you need done.

  • Include your community size, goals, and whether you need setup, ongoing management, or both
  • List required skills such as Skool setup, classroom and course structure, and gamification
  • Highlight engagement and retention experience with membership or course communities
  • Note adjacent platforms you use, such as Discord, Circle, or Mighty Networks

The Job Post Generator powered by Umaโ„ข, Upwork's Mindful AI, can draft a Skool expert job post for you. Describe your needs in a few sentences, and it produces a tailored draft. You can write a new post, update a saved draft, or reuse an existing post.

Step 2: Evaluate candidates

Review candidates for proof they can run a community like yours.

  • Look for a portfolio of Skool or similar communities they have set up or managed
  • Check for measurable results, such as higher engagement, retention, or member growth
  • Confirm hands-on experience with onboarding flows and content organization
  • Compare each profile against a clear community role job description

Uma can conduct instant video interviews and provide shortlists of candidates with side-by-side comparisons, so you can focus on the strongest fits.

Step 3: Interview your top choices

Interview your shortlist to test community judgment and communication.

  • Ask how they would set up and organize a new Skool community from scratch
  • Ask how they build onboarding flows that turn new members into active contributors
  • Ask for an example of increasing engagement or reducing churn in a community
  • Draw from a list of community manager interview questions to keep candidates comparable

Schedule and conduct interviews within Upwork Messages, and get an immediate transcript and summary after each one.

Step 4: Agree on scope and begin work

Set clear expectations before work starts.

  • Define deliverables such as community setup, onboarding flows, or a monthly engagement plan
  • Set milestones tied to launch, member activation, and engagement targets
  • Confirm which tools and access the expert needs, from Skool admin to analytics
  • Agree on a reporting cadence for growth, engagement, and retention

Use messaging and the contract workroom to communicate and manage the project. Identity verification, payment protection, hourly tracking, and project funds keep the work secure.

Frequently asked questions

Is hiring a Skool expert worth it?

Yes, hiring a Skool expert is worth it because a dedicated specialist turns signups into active members who complete your courses and renew. It delivers the most value for ongoing engagement or a growing membership, less so for a one-time setup.

A Skool expert brings tested onboarding, engagement, and retention systems, so you skip the trial and error of running a community alone. They also handle daily moderation and content upkeep that most founders lack time to sustain.

What tools or platforms should a Skool expert know?

Beyond Skool itself, look for familiarity with adjacent community and course tools plus light analytics for tracking engagement. Many also work across platforms like Discord, Circle, or Mighty Networks.
