Key Quotes:
“One big tip for anyone starting a membership is to make sure they are tracking how people are joining their membership — and ask the right questions.”
“The thing I love about the membership model is the scalability of it. There’s only so far you can go with a 9-5, whereas with a membership site, the possibilities are endless.”
“Something I found useful when I first started out was being aware of what I was good at and what I was terrible at. Anything I struggled with, I just outsourced to someone else.”
