Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each
question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on
four things from 1 to 5:
directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow),
precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted
mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange
scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean.

Q Six-zero. That's incredible. And so how do you, I imagine most of these guys, it's not just a club. I mean, it probably feels a lot like family, right? And you guys are like, you probably celebrate when you say, I finally was able to move to part-time, full-time job, and now I'm almost all-time on my side gig, right? I mean, these are what people celebrate.
A Yeah, I mean, it's one of those things where, like, people come for the events and accountability, but they stay for the community. Like, the format is, means you meet people over video a lot, and it's a great way to kind of build connections. So yeah, there's a lot of, like, fun parts of Weekend Club as well, like an active, like, memes channel, that kind of thing. But as you said, yeah, like, a big part of it is, like, celebrating wins. Um, you know, that's a huge part of it as well. And it can, sometimes it's big things like, um, you know, going full-time on your project, but Sometimes there's little things like, oh, I just got, I got a customer today or something like that. And that's cool as well.

Q And tell me a little bit more about building community, right? A lot of people, they, they want to go build a community just because they want to sell a hundred dollar a month plans in a Slack group, right? Which is the wrong way to build a community. How have you done this?
A To be honest, um, it evolved quite naturally, uh, cause I was running meetups in London for like a year and a half or so, um, before I started this. Um, and so I was quite naturally kind of introducing people People to each other, kind of getting to know people. And it was indie hackers as people I was, you know, personally interested in kind of getting to know. Um, and it just kind of evolved very naturally that people said, Oh, we'd love to, we love like going for like drinks together, but we'd love to hack on our projects in the same room. And we just got it going. Um, I've kind of about a year, no, maybe about three months in, I realized I was in like the community world. I started like meeting people who were community builders and I started realizing, okay, I need to kind of really think of this. That's just coming down to like knowing, really defining what your community is for, who it's for, and what you're basically getting people together for. And once you have those things down, there's a really good book on this actually, Get Together, which like talks about that basic framework. Um, then that's the kind of foundation. And then it's that there's like tons of like techniques and, but ultimately the most important thing is make sure, um, you're building connections between other people. It's not like a newsletter, like an audience. You need to make sure you're natural…

Q Very cool. So how do you, how do you grow this thing? Right. Or is that even an objective, right? Like how do you grow this?
A Yeah. Well, my objective the end by the end of the year is about five camera and that's roughly my ramen profitability if some in London, right? So if I was in like Thailand, it'd be lower, but it's quite high here. Um, but in terms of growing, to be honest, we're, we're picking up our growth efforts. We haven't actually done a lot. A lot of it's like either word of mouth or it's from, um, like posting on indie hackers and, you know, I do Twitter threads on, uh, building in public. And that's a lot of it. Um, but we haven't done much like original content. We haven't really done ads. So there's actually quite a lot of like, you know, avenues or levers to grow, I think.

Q And, and, you know, a lot of people, you look like a country club, right? They're paying a 100,000 dollars a year for sort of axes. Did you ever look at this and go, you know, I, I wonder if this would actually deliver more, like you could reinvest more into the group if you made more money from it. Are you charging too little currently?
A Yeah. I wouldn't say I'm charging too little. Um, I think we probably charge on the slightly higher end of like kind of, um, bootstrapper based communities that I've seen. Um, but the reason we do that is like, we can just offer a much better service, um, for that. Like, as you touch on with like country clubs, not saying we're trying to be like that, but I just think we can offer people a lot more and also make it a lot more sustainable if we charge a bit more money. Originally, I never planned on, um, charging for community, um, You know, I, I used to think I would never do that, but I realized I can just offer a far better service, um, if we do that. And it's not like way more than everyone else. It's just like a bit more. And it means like, I think people know we're going to be around like, um, like I think quite a long time.
