How Paid Pros works
A free group for Utah teams whose ads produce leads that a sales team closes. Here is what happens after you ask to join, and what you can show up to once you are in.
Joining
From request to your first meetup
- 1
Request to join
A short form: your role, what you run ads for, monthly spend and CRM. About two minutes.
- 2
A person reads it
Every request is reviewed, usually within a week. The group caps around 150 active members, with a waitlist after that.
- 3
Get the Slack invite
Approved members get an email with the invite. Say hello in #welcome-intros: who you are and what you run ads for.
- 4
Show up
Join the weekly catch-up, come to a monthly meetup at Kiln, and sign up for the workshops that fit what you run.
