We read everything a new member receives, in the order she receives it. Each piece makes sense alone. The confusion shows up when they sit side by side.
Four different first steps
100 messages · 81 people
The welcome says do the Starter Course. The pinned post says the onboarding call. The checklist's Day 1 lists the call, videos, an intro and Eve. The Day 1 DM says log into your broker.
Fix: three asks on day one, the same everywhere: open Start Here, get Eve, join Monday's call or watch the replay.
TradingView set-up is hidden

Chart set-up only appears under Scalping, so anyone following another style can miss it.
Fix: put one TradingView set-up lesson in Start Here, before the first demo trade.
Names and lessons don't line up
38 messages · 35 people
There is no "Starter Course": the course is "New Members- Start Here!". "Tuesday Beginners Call" is "Beginner Education Call" in the calendar. The checklist sits 8th of 9 items and is an image, which is hard to read on a phone. Start Here also holds an affiliate offer, a 61-minute talk and an indicator purchase.
Fix: call it Start Here everywhere, open with a plain-text lesson called "Your first 7 days", match call names to the calendar, and move the extras elsewhere.
Members can't find Eve
34 messages · 30 people
Only 49 of the 150 recent joiners who stayed have used her. Members ask if she's an app and where alerts arrive.
Fix, already under way: a one-tap Eve message is going to about 215 Premium members who haven't tried her. Anyone new who still hasn't opened Eve after about a week now gets one reminder DM.
Indicator questions keep coming
31 messages · 29 people
Members ask how access works and whether there's an app. It runs on TradingView, so there isn't one. We haven't reviewed these messages as closely as the others.
Fix: one short lesson on who has the indicator and how to set it up. We'll review the questions first so it answers the real ones.
Choosing a style comes too late

"How To Choose Your Trading Style" sits inside Scalping, after the Swing section.
Fix: make it an early lesson in Start Here.
The onboarding call is unclear
24 messages · 23 people
Emails say "book" it, but there's nothing to book. It's on the Day 1 list but runs on Mondays only, so she can wait up to 6 days. The replay isn't in the welcome. One member followed the call link and found only locked videos.
Fix: say "Join Monday's call", add the replay link, and check that call link first.
Premium has no clear starting point
18 messages · 18 people
The "Welcome Premium Members!" course is never mentioned in the welcome. This topic also covers billing questions, which we haven't reviewed.
Fix: add one line and one link for Premium members in the welcome.
Broker comes before demo
15 messages · 14 people
The checklist has a demo trade on Day 2 but broker research on Days 6 and 7, while the Day 1 DM says log into your broker. A beginner doesn't have one on Day 1.
Fix: demo first, broker later, once Amanda and Jenn agree the order.
Three plans compete
Not counted separately
The 7 Day Checklist, Eve's "Start my plan" and the personalised plan in the classroom all do a similar job, and the checklist never mentions "Start my plan".
Fix: choose one and point everything to it.
