The #1 membership podcast for founders wanting to create an online membership community that sells, scales, delivers world class results and gives you a life you're obsessed with...

So—we kept it going. Every Monday, I pull back the curtain and show you exactly how to build a membership community that sells, scales, and delivers world-class results. You’ll learn how to turn your 1:1 service into a scalable membership model that generates predictable monthly recurring revenue—without burning yourself out. Inside, you’ll discover proven strategies for: - Creating and launching a membership program (we talk low ticket, mid ticket AND high ticket membership masterminds here)  - Automating member acquisition and retention - Scaling your online membership community - Strategies to grow a tight knit community (because memberships run on retention) - Building passive income streams through memberships - Growing recurring revenue while actually getting your time back - Transitioning from service provider to membership owner And that's just the tip of the iceberg....

    64. Sign More Members by Closing Your Doors [Open/Close Membership Model Explained PT 2.]

    GET YOUR NEXT 100 MEMBERS - Free Guide Download  JOIN MILLION DOLLAR MEMBERSHIPS CLUB + 8 WEEK GET 100 MEMBERS LIVE CHALLENGE    In this episode, Paige breaks down why closed doors will actually make you MORE money as a membership founder, and squashes the number one fear keeping founders stuck in the always-open model: "how will I pay my bills when my doors are closed?"   Most founders stay evergreen because they're terrified of the "quiet months." But your closed months aren't your broke months. They're your most profitable ones. Paige's clients are proving it: one had a goal of 750 members by end of year and hit 700 by end of July, another hit her 300 member end-of-year goal at the beginning of July, all after switching from always-open to the open/close model.       YOU'LL DISCOVER:   - The biggest fear about closing your doors (and why it gets the entire point of a membership backwards) - Why "publicly closed" does NOT mean "privately closed," and the 4 behind-the-scenes sales strategies that run while your doors are shut - How annual pricing smooths out your income so you can plan your year instead of white-knuckling it month to month - The trust math behind why open/close launches convert at 12 to 20% on a live event vs the 2 to 4% industry average   If you want predictable recurring revenue that pays you every single month, even when your doors are closed, this episode is your blueprint. Hit play and start planning your income for the YEAR.   -----   MORE FROM MILLION DOLLAR MEMBERSHIPS PODCAST:   - Free Guide + Workbook: Get Your Next 100 Members  - Join us for the Get Your Next 100 Members 8 Week Challenge starting September 1st, free inside Million Dollar Memberships Club      - Work with Paige 1:1: Email support@paigevandy.com.   -----   THIS PODCAST IS FOR COACHES, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND ONLINE ENTREPRENEURS WHO WANT TO BUILD PROFITABLE MEMBERSHIPS AND ESCAPE THE 1:1 HUSTLE.   You'll learn proven strategies to:   - Launch and grow your membership faster - Keep members engaged and paying month after month - Turn your membership into a reliable, recurring revenue machine   If you love shows like Online Marketing Made Easy by Amy Porterfield, Membership Geeks, Earn Your Happy by Lori Harder, The Art of Online Business by Rick Mulready…you'll feel right at home here.

    62. Open vs Closed Membership Model: Why Staying Open Is Killing Your Growth

    JOIN THE JULY MEMBERSHIP CHALLENGE:  Get Your Next 100 Members Challenge (July 14–16). Register here: https://milliondollarmembershipspodcast.paigevandy.com/offers/Rmx3Z24o/checkout   Ready to build a predictable, profitable membership? Join Million Dollar Memberships Club: https://paigevandy.com/million-dollar-memberships-club   In this episode, Paige breaks down why the open close membership model beats staying open year-round, and why keeping your doors open might be the exact thing killing your growth. Every membership guru tells you to keep your doors open all year and let your membership feed your higher ticket programs. Paige believes that advice is hurting 90% of memberships. Because the truth is... the founders following it are dealing with inconsistent sign-ups, brutal churn, and total burnout from promoting their membership every single day. And most of those problems are 80% solved the moment you switch to open close. Inside this episode, Paige walks through the three biggest problems membership founders face and exactly how the open close model fixes each one. You'll discover: Why inconsistent sign-ups aren't a content problem, they're a model problem How random discounts and flash sales are quietly lowering the perceived value of your membership Why churn actually DECREASES when members know the doors close behind them The surprising way open close helps your members commit and get better results How focused sales periods replace the constant promo grind (and save your sanity) And that's just the beginning. If you're tired of hard selling your membership every day just to keep it alive, this episode will show you a better way.   More From Million Dollar Memberships: Paid 3-Day Challenge: Get Your Next 100 Members (July 14–16) htthttps://milliondollarmembershipspodcast.paigevandy.com/offers/Rmx3Z24o/checkout   Ready to start or grow your membership?
