When you’re managing an online community, keeping everyone on the same page can be a challenge. Events, live sessions, and deadlines can quickly become overwhelming without a reliable system. That’s why Skool’s calendar integration is a game-changer. It simplifies scheduling, ensures seamless communication, and helps keep your community engaged.
Here’s how you can use Skool’s calendar feature to take your event management to the next level.
Why Skool's Calendar Feature Is a Must-Have for Your Community
The quick answer: It keeps everyone informed. With Skool’s integrated calendar, your community members never have to wonder, “When’s the next event?” Everything they need to know is in one central place.
Here’s what makes Skool’s calendar feature indispensable:
Centralized Scheduling: Add all your events—live sessions, group discussions, Q&As, and deadlines—directly into the calendar.
Automatic Notifications: Members receive reminders, so they never miss an event.
Enhanced Engagement: A clear schedule builds anticipation and fosters consistent participation.
Whether you’re hosting a weekly live call, running a challenge, or planning a big launch event, Skool’s calendar ensures everything runs smoothly.
How to Use Skool's Calendar to Manage Events
1. Plan Your Community Activities
Start by mapping out the events you want to host. This could include:
Weekly live coaching sessions.
Monthly Q&A sessions.
Special workshops or masterclasses.
Deadlines for challenges or assignments.
Action Tip: Organize your events into themes (e.g., “Mindful Mondays” or “Skill-Building Saturdays”) to create consistency and excitement.
2. Add Events to the Skool Calendar
Skool’s calendar is intuitive and easy to use. Simply input the event details, such as:
Event title (e.g., “Live Breathwork Class”).
Date and time.
Location or link (e.g., Zoom or in-platform).
A brief description of what members can expect.
Pro Tip: Include time zones to accommodate global members.
3. Automate Notifications
Skool takes the stress out of reminders. Once your event is on the calendar, your members will automatically receive notifications. This eliminates the need for manual reminders and ensures no one is left out.
How Notifications Work:
Members are notified in advance of upcoming events.
They can RSVP or mark their attendance.
Notifications can also highlight event changes or updates.
4. Encourage Participation
Make your events irresistible by hyping them up. Use Skool’s community forums to:
Share sneak peeks or teasers about the event.
Start discussions or polls related to the event topic.
Create a sense of urgency with countdowns.
Engagement Ideas:
Offer exclusive content or bonuses for attending live.
Host giveaways or contests tied to event participation.
Celebrate attendance milestones (e.g., “Congrats to Sarah for attending her 10th live session!”).
5. Analyze Event Success
After the event, use feedback to improve future sessions. Ask your members:
What they enjoyed most about the event.
What they’d like to see in future sessions.
How they found the scheduling and reminders.
Skool’s community forums are perfect for gathering this input in a conversational way.
Why Skool's Calendar Feature Stands Out
There are plenty of calendar tools out there, but Skool’s integration is designed specifically for community leaders. Here’s why it’s better:
One Platform, One Solution: Everything—calendar, forums, courses—is in one place.
Community-Focused: Built to drive engagement, not just schedule events.
Simple and Intuitive: You don’t need to be a tech wizard to make it work.
This streamlined experience benefits both you and your members, creating a sense of structure without extra effort.
