The Engineering Exchange

The Engineering Exchange is for engineers and product developers. Learn real-world engineering with mentoring from people who do it.

Why you should join: Courses on engineering context, leadership and the product development process, twice-monthly masterclass lives, weekly Q&As, free resume reviews and career mentoring, all grounded in real parts and real decisions. Membership is $10 a month.

The one-liner

A low-cost mentoring community for engineers and product developers.

What they actually sell

The Engineering Exchange is run by Kim Porter. The headline pitch reads: "Engineering + Product Development community." The public offer sits at $10 a month. One-to-one coaching shows up as part of the package. For $10 a month members get courses, resume reviews, weekly Q&As, twice-monthly masterclass lives and an intro Zoom call. Inside sit 13 courses. The page does not spell out a money-back promise.

Who pays and why

Working and early-career engineers who want real-world context. The pain is learning a practical craft alone, without someone to ask. They pay for courses, mentoring, resume reviews, weekly live Q&As and masterclass lives.

Where the members come from

The page links no outside channels, so most members probably find it through Skool's own discovery and word of mouth. That puts a lot of weight on the about page itself, which has to do the whole selling job. Kim Porter's profile line reads: "Engineer with 40 years experience sharing real world engineering."

What's holding it back

At $10 a month revenue is small, and the value leans on the founder's time and goodwill.

Steal this

Offer every new member an intro call that walks them through the content, so nobody gets lost on day one.

Would this work in another niche?

Yes for any technical profession, such as surveying. Weak where formal certification is what people pay for.
