New OC Community

Hello everyone,

After looking at several course and CRM tools like Kajabi, Circle, and Skool, I have decided to go forward with Fluent Community and the rest of the Fluent Ecosystem (Forms, Booking, CRM, SMTP, Auth).

I have an IT background (Sysadmin, CTO), but my focus now is on an outdoor community called Outside Chronicles. I teach many outdoor skills classes and have a successful YouTube channel. I made online courses my goal for 2025.

After scrutinizing (agonizing) over the SaaS platforms I decided to continue building on Wordpress. Much of OC relies on it today for our Events and Challenges.

I was hesitant to build vs. buy since my community is large. So far, I am very pleased with the ease of setup of Forms, Booking, CRM, SMTP, Auth. The products are well documented. Anytime I have run into a config issue, the docs have steered me in the right direction. I absolutely love the integration and automation.

I am beginning to plan out Community and am excited to share my journey with early adopters and Fluent through this community.

See you outside,
Mike
