What potential does Web3 have to revolutionize the internet?

Web3 is the next generation of the internet, powered by blockchain technology. It has the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with the internet and could create new opportunities for entrepreneurs.

What is Web3?

Web3 is a decentralized internet. That means it doesn’t rely on central servers or authorities , but instead is powered by a network of computers spread around the world.

How could Web3 impact entrepreneurs?

First, it could create new opportunities for businesses to emerge. Because there wouldn’t be any central authority controlling the internet, it would be easier for new businesses to get started.

Second, it could help businesses to become more efficient. With a decentralized internet, there would be no need for middlemen. This could make transactions and other interactions between businesses much faster and more efficient.

Third, it could provide new ways for businesses to raise capital. Blockchain technology, which powers Web3, could enable businesses to raise funds through NFTs or Social Tokens.

Thank you for listening to this series on tokenizing your microschool. We are going to answer the question you are all thinking about but are afraid to ask. What if I don't want to or can't focus on building a community right now?

It's possible to use your existing community to help with tokenization. While it's ideal to build a community from scratch, you can also use the community you already have. This will help reduce the time it takes to get started and get your tokens into circulation.

You may have immediate needs and are unable to focus on building a community for your micsoschool. However, you can still use the community you have to help with tokenization. In this episode, we will discuss how to do this. Listen below.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why you may not be able to build the community you desire before you create an NFT or social token?
• Steps you need to take when you need to raise capital for your microschool or course academy.
• Things you should consider when you are ready to move forward with creating an NFT for your existing community.

With the rise of blockchain technology, a new era of event fundraising has begun. Known as non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, these offer a more secure and user-friendly experience than traditional fundraising. For one, NFTs are stored on a blockchain network, which means that they are encrypted and stored as immutable blocks. This makes it virtually impossible for fraudsters to duplicate or tamper with them. NFTs can be easily transferred and sold, making it easy for supporters to resell their NFTs if they can no longer attend a class or event. Because NFTs are stored on a decentralized network, there is no need for a third-party company. With ‌these benefits, it’s no wonder that NFT as a fundraising tool is quickly becoming the preferred choice for microschools and online academies.

Valerie was having a hard time deciding how to tokenize her upcoming event. She wanted to make sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible, but she wasn't sure how to go about it. Luckily, she knew just who to call for help: Contessa!

Contessa was more than happy to help Valerie out. She had a lot of experience with tokenizing events and was confident that she could help Valerie get everything set up perfectly. Valerie was relieved and grateful for Contessa's help.

The day of the event finally arrived, and Valerie was excited to see how things went. Thankfully, everything went off without a hitch thanks to Contessa's expertise! Valerie was very pleased with the results and thanked Contessa for making the entire process easy.

Many Microschool founders don't realize the importance of community building for their NFT projects until it's too late.

Community-building fosters connection. The act of sharing becomes a very empowering practice that can turn into a source of motivation, inspiration, learning and support for the people in the community.

Building a community is important because it helps to create a safe and trusting environment, it allows for the sharing of knowledge and experience, and it builds collective strength towards shared goals.

We'll be discussing this topic in more depth. Thanks for listening!

In this episode of the Coaches Who Build Worlds Podcast, you will learn:

• What does it really mean to build a community when you are creating an NFT for your microschool?
• Why is community building important before you think about a community token?
• What are some challenges to building a community for your token?
• What if I don’t want to build a community right now or work with the community I currently have? 

However, building a community around your NFT project can be challenging. It takes time and resources to find a dedicated leadership team and to get members to participate without alienating smaller demographics.

Community building is an important part of cultivating trust and creating connections in any group or organization. It helps to build a sense of kinship and belonging, which can help members feel valued and accepted within the group. This, in turn, can lead to better communication and collaboration among members. Additionally, community building activities can foster shared interests that cross group boundaries, creating a sense of collective purpose and identity

The challenge in building community is taking the time to gather people together and getting them to exchange and connect. This process can be time-consuming, but it's essential in order to build trust and loyalty. Additionally, it can be difficult to get everyone to participate without alienating smaller demographics.

Collective learning leads to strengthened goals and objectives. When people in the community feel supported, they're more likely to take risks and experiment with new ideas. This can lead to innovation and creativity, which can benefit the entire community.

Community building is essential for successful NFT projects. Whether you are building a microschool or launching a new health initiative, strong community engagement and participation is key to your success.

If you're not ready to build a community right now, there may still be ways that you can start cultivating connections and collaborating with others in your field. We'll talk about that more in part 3 of this series.

Do you run a microschool, online academy or create courses for your business? Have you thought about tokenizing your community?

If you're interested in learning more about how to use NFTs and social tokens within your microschool, be sure to listen to our podcast below. We'll be discussing this topic in more depth. Thanks for listening!

A microschool is a small, private institution where students and adult learners are empowered to personalize their own education and are held accountable for their own progress. They are becoming increasingly popular as web technology becomes more prevalent.

One way that microschools can use web 3 technology is by creating nfts or social tokens. Nfts are unique digital assets that can be used to signify class attendance, accessing resources or completing activities.

A microschool could use social tokens to fund and reward student-led projects or to encourage positive interactions between students and adults. This would create a more effective community within the microschool and help to motivate and engage students.

Tokenizing your microschool community allows you to create a more engaged and committed user base, as well as generate revenue from your tokenized ecosystem.

In this episode we will learn:

• What are the different types of microschools? (This answer may surprise you.)
• What are some reasons you will want to tokenize them? (they might not be what you think)
• What are some challenges you may have using NFTs and social tokens with your microschool, online course, or academy? (are the really challenges)
• Why you should focus on community development before introducing a social token, creator coin, or community token?

Microschools are becoming increasingly popular as web technology becomes more prevalent. You may be wondering how you can use NFTs and social tokens to create a more effective community within your microschool.

Being vulnerable can help us connect with our communities and audiences in a more authentic way. It can also help us form genuine relationships with others. When we are vulnerable, we are opening ourselves up to others and show them our authentic selves. This can help us connect with others on a deeper level, and it can also help us build trust.

Fear works against us. It disconnects us from the communities we want to establish. Fear soothes us and draws our attention to things. It also diverts our attention away from reality and gives us a distinct set of facts to deal with. Fear makes sense for us and provides a reason for avoiding showing up as ourselves.

In this episode you will learn:

• Why do members use fear as an excuse for not connecting within a community?
• How being inauthentic leads to mistrust in communities.
• What does it really mean to be an authentic community leader or member?
• What to do if you feel rejected or lose clients because you are vulnerable?

Do you desire to connect with coaching communities authentically, and form genuine relationships with others? Are you ready to be vulnerable and open up to others so that you can connect on a deeper level? Would you like to be fearless and not let fear impede establishing meaningful connections?

Being in Facebook Jail impacts content creators and small businesses differently than someone who is just being social. Having your access restricted from your business pages, groups and marketing tools can impact your business in a negative way. It can also affect your mental and emotional wellbeing, something that many entrepreneurs can afford.

Are we giving these platforms more power than they deserve? Are they really giving us the results we think that they do? What proof do you have that social media is necessary for your business?

Our experiences with Facebook give us a jumping-off point to talk about making sure the tools fit our business needs. It robs from our businesses to fit our needs around the tools. We have to be clear about what social media gives us in exchange for our time and money. If we are good with that exchange, then so be it. 

In this episode you will learn:

• ​Is being on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok really making you money in your business?
• Are you really receiving monetary value in coaching memberships or groups?
• Are your social media followers and friends converting into clients?
• Is showing up all you need to be a successful content creator?
• What impact does Facebook Jail have on you as a small business owner, influencer or creator?
