About the Episode:Eugene Khayman is the COO of Million Dollar Sellers (MDS), an exclusive community for top Amazon entrepreneurs that he helped grow from a humble Facebook group into a thriving six-figure membership of 700 members generating $11 billion in annual sales.In this episode of "Uploading...", Eugene shares the organic journey of building MDS alongside running his own Amazon brand. He discusses key strategies that made MDS successful, such as their "give more, get more" philosophy, setting a high bar for membership to filter out noise, and delivering immense value that justifies the $7,500 annual membership fee.Eugene also unpacks the business model powering MDS, including multiple revenue streams from membership, partnerships, affiliates, and events. He emphasizes the importance of member-only perks, local chapters, and a robust software platform to organize resources and drive engagement in a community. Finally, Eugene offers advice for content creators looking to launch their own paid communities.Today, we'll cover:- How MDS grew organically from a humble Facebook group to a thriving community- The "Give More, Get More" philosophy that drives member engagement and success- Strategies for filtering out noise and maintaining a high-quality, focused community- The business model behind MDS and why people pay over $7,000 a year to be part of the network- Eugene's insights on scaling communities while maintaining their identity and core values- Tips for building and monetizing your own niche membership communityWhat You'll Learn1.

For us I think it was like 150 members before we started actually monetizing. But you know, I would say you want to get to 100 members, you want to have at least 40, 50 die hard members that are engaging in there every single day. You want to get at least five to 10 conversations happening a day. If somebody can ask a question and have it answered that same day like that, that's the value creation right there, right? You don't want to be the one, you yourself answering every single question because you yourself, you don't know everything.” — Eugene Khayman, 00:08:33 → 00:09:25Monetizing and Scaling a Community: “Whenever somebody starts making a profit because of others, there's going to be some level of, like, why are we doing this? And there's also going to be that, that hesitation to grow. Everybody's going to be like, 'We're so great, we don't need more people.' Right? And we've crossed that bar—100 members, 200 members, 400 members—there's always that, ‘Oh, we're too big, we're too big, we're too big.' And you're going to get that pushback. The biggest thing that I think that helped us do it together is one, once we started monetizing, we started putting all of that money back into more events and more resources, building a team… Once you start adding back value by hiring people that help keep things organized, putting on calls regularly, doing events regularly, you'll get that respect from those members, those existing members. And then the new people that are coming in, you have to show that these new people actually bring value to the community.” — Eugene Khayman, 00:11:33 → 00:13:03Show notes powered by Castmagic---Have any questions about the show or topics you'd like us to explore further?Shoot us a DM; we'd love to hear from you.Want the weekly TL;DR of tips delivered to your mailbox?Check out our newsletter here.Follow us for content, clips, giveaways, & updates!Castmagic InstagramCastmagic TwitterCastmagic LinkedIn  ---Blaine Bolus - Co-Founder of CastmagicRamon Berrios - Co-Founder of CastmagicEugene Khayman - COO of Million Dollar Sellers

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against Austin's Sunrise Homeless Navigation Center, alleging that it fosters criminal behavior and threatens the safety of local residents. The center, located near an elementary school, has been linked to reports of drug use, public indecency, and violence. Paxton argues that the center's operations, which include distributing harm-reduction materials, exacerbate public safety concerns, particularly for children. The lawsuit highlights community frustration with liberal policies and calls for stronger accountability measures. Sunrise officials defend their mission but face mounting pressure to address these complaints. This case underscores ongoing debates about homelessness, public safety, and the limits of government intervention, spotlighting conservative calls for stricter oversight and prioritization of community safety.

Grassroots researcher Annie Paradise presents here a collective ethnography of the mothers and community matriarchs whose children have been murdered by police across the San Francisco Bay Area as they develop and practice autonomous, creative forms of resistance. The War on the Social Factory: The Struggle for Community Safety in the Silicon Valley maps local families' struggles to reclaim their households and their communities—to create a social infrastructure of care, justice, and safety outside state- and market-determined modes of “security.” Practices such as sustained vigil, testimony, and the production and circulation of insurgent knowledges are shown here to be part of interconnected justice efforts to demilitarize and decarcerate communities in the face of the multiple forms of violence enacted under late racial patriarchal capitalism. Paradise examines the expanding carceral processes of enclosure, criminalization, dispossession, expropriation, and disposability that mark the neoliberal "security” regime across the Silicon Valley and offers counter-counterinsurgent strategies and practices of co-generative, dynamic resistance.CRRA wevsite: http://www.ccra-tech.art/Support the show

Justice secretary Shabana Mahmood has acknowledged that ‘our prisons are on the point of collapse'. She has announced that, from September, most prisoners serving sentences of less than four years will be released 40 per cent of the way through their sentences instead of the halfway point, which is currently the case. The policy will ease pressure on prisons, but the question remains; could this backfire? Katy Balls speaks to Fraser Nelson and Professor Ian Acheson, former prison governor and former Director of Community Safety at the Home Office.
