Another member upgraded to our VIP tier today for 997/year 🎉 This brought our total MRR up to $537! Started with a $500/month goal to keep myself in momentum Here's what worked for me to reach this point: 1. Founding Members Launch I started messy with nothing really built... Offered a low-barrier founding members deal to see who was interested in more support. Had 17 people upgrade through the 2 months this deal ran. 2. Live Workshops (thanks for the inspiration to do this @Dan Harrison 😎) We run free workshops for now that solve real problems our members are having. Getting them a win in real time naturally led to upgrades. 3. Real Conversations Instead of leaving comments everywhere, I just found conversations that were happening and shared my actual take. Trust was built fast doing this, and DMs naturally followed. From there, if it made sense, I made the offer to them privately. Learn from my mistakes and don't overcomplicate this. I used to overthink all of this stuff and realized all I needed to do was be direct and clear. Help people and talk to them like a real person. The goal is to give them a reason to want more access to you.
