Synthesizer: The Free 44,000-Member Skool That Feeds a $277K/Month Program

The smartest funnel on Skool starts with a community that costs nothing. Andrew Kirby's Synthesizer is a free Skool community with 44,854 members. It feeds Synthesizer Scaling, a $1,700 per month program that earns $277,352 per month from just 277 members. A free room at the top, a high-ticket program at the bottom, run by one of the most credentialed people on the platform.

The founder does the selling

Andrew Kirby

Founder and brand behind Synthesizer. The first-ever Skool investor, creator of the first-ever free Skool community, 500,000+ YouTube subscribers, and host of the Alex Hormozi Skool Games. Runs the paid Scaling program with partner Aidan LaBreche.

Kirby's credibility is the top of the funnel. When the person teaching you to grow on Skool was the first investor in Skool and hosted its biggest event, the pitch is already half made. The free community and brand are his; Aidan LaBreche helps run the high-ticket scaling side.

What Synthesizer actually sells

The free community's about page is built to earn trust with proof, then point the ready buyer toward the paid program. Below is their about page word for word, with the key parts numbered. Hover a number to see what each line is doing.

A free community this large, backed by named results, is a trust machine. It is the top of the funnel, and it does the convincing so the paid program does not have to.

The funnel, step by step

This is the textbook free-to-paid model: a huge free room feeds a small, high-ticket program.

Entry to the paid side is by application, not instant checkout, which filters for serious buyers. One standout trust signal: they claim to share the results of every single customer, not just the winners.

The formula you can copy

Build the free community first, and make it genuinely valuable. 44,854 free members is the asset. A free room full of real results earns trust a paid pitch never could on its own. (Note this is also the model behind Goosify.)

Let proof do the converting. "Helped Hamza go from $20K to $200K/month" sells the program better than any ad. Document real member results and put them where buyers see them.

Offer the deeper program only to those ready for it. A focused high-ticket offer at the bottom, application-only, is how you monetize a free audience without cheapening it. See the highest-earning Skool communities.
