One of the most valuable communities I've joined
I recently sat in on Des's live event about running live events, and it completely changed how I'm thinking about mine. I walked away with tips I'm already planning to apply inside my own community. What stood out most wasn't just the content — it was how Des delivers it. He speaks with real confidence and holds nothing back, openly sharing exactly what's working for him instead of the usual gatekeeping you see in a lot of these spaces. It's rare to come across someone who's this generous with what actually moves the needle. If you're on the fence about joining his community, don't be. This is one of the few places where the value is real, not just promised.

Best YouTube Marketing Community
Hi everyone, I'm Lana Liquity and I joined the Content Revenue Lab because my goal this year is to get 100 subscribers on my YouTube channel. I've had it for several years but I haven't really worked on getting a lot more subscribers and I joined the Content Revenue Lab so I can hit my goal of getting 100 subscribers before the end of this year so I can increase the number of people who see my podcast, Self Publishing for Professionals. Being a member in Dez's Content Revenue Lab has been like, if I said incredible, I would be downplaying it. Dez drops the best information in little bites so you can follow along and easily implement the action steps he tells you to take. And it's all from his experience. It's not inflated, it's not fluffed, and it's not BS. This is what Dez uses to get his YouTube channel more subscribers, more views, and get the right people to his channel. And these are effective practices that work. If you are looking to get the right subscribers to your YouTube account and want to take those subscribers and convert them into paying clients on Skoll, you should join the Content Revenue Lab. The Content Revenue Lab is not for people who are using YouTube as a hobby or just playing around with videos and throwing them up there. The Content Revenue Lab is for serious people who want to generate serious business and generate the right traffic to their platform, to their Skoll community, and to their YouTube channel.

My favorite community about YouTube on Skool.
My favorite community about YouTube on Skool. What I love the most about Content Revenue Lab, that Des, the founder & host, is very responsive to any questions YT related, he shares everything and does hold back. Not only that, but his answers are real and practical, easy to implement. Des's presentation at the Community Clinic event in my community on YouTube was one of the most popular ones. If you have YT channel, or planning one, to help you grow your business, then I highly recommend you join Content Revenue Lab.

Building a course? Build Lab will help you make it a standout.
Shannon is such a wealth of knowledge and inspiration. I joined Build Lab late in the game... my course was already built out and launched. But as I'm going through the classroom here, I'm finding so many opportunities for improvement. Most coaches just say "build a course, you'll make money!" But Shannon actually teaches you HOW to do it. With grace, patience, and encouragement every step of the way.

High-Impact, High-Value Support for Course Creators
Shannon is truly the best of the best when it comes to course creation. She has an incredible ability to break down the process in a way that makes it clear, doable, and meaningful, especially for those of us who want to teach with real impact and create high-quality courses. What sets Shannon apart is not just her expertise, but how she shows up. She brings in thoughtful guest experts who genuinely complement the course-creation process, is responsive and present with questions and needs inside the community, and has built a cohesive, supportive space for creators. I’ve used her framework to build two signature courses, and I continue to come back to it. If you’re serious about creating courses that are well-designed, aligned, and effective, Shannon and The Build Lab need to be part of your plan.
