If you’re reading this, there is a good chance that you already understand the amazing earning potential of creating membership sites that bring in a recurring revenue. By bringing in more and more customers who pay a monthly fee for your content, your income stream will grow FAST.
In essence, a membership site involves people paying a monthly fee to have access to private content. This content is usually released at regular intervals, often weekly.
Not only are membership sites EXTREMELY profitable, but by having a membership site, it puts you on the path of becoming an authority figure within your chosen niche.
Starting a membership site is not nearly as difficult as you might think. A lot of marketers get intimidated by the idea, thinking it is too big of an undertaking. The truth is that there are a lot of great services and software options that make the task quite easy. After the initial, often painless setup, all you really need to worry about is providing content and signing up new members.
You don’t even have to worry about having six or more months of content ready for your members. Technically, you could start out with only the first week or two of content available on the site. Just make sure you can add future content before they get done with what is currently there. You don’t want members to get to a point where no content is available. That’s the fastest way to start losing all your paying customers.
One thing to keep in mind is that the whole point of a membership site is that you can automate almost everything. When people sign up for your list and set up their payment, they will automatically be directed on how to get started. You won’t need to create their account, or handle any of that. All you will need to focus on is getting new members, and making sure your members have content on a weekly basis.
When I say your members get content on a weekly basis, remember you only need to be making content for your oldest members. You already have content ready for all of your other newer members, and it will automatically be delivered to them within the normal time frame.
