💰 $10K/month is great. But…
Not if it takes 50 hours a week to get there. 😬 My 1st goal? $10K+ months working 20–25 hours a week. ✅ Done Build the ecosystem. Grow recurring revenue. Keep your life. 🔥 POLL: What do you want more of? Want to know my next goal? Check the comments...I'll drop it in there as soon as see yours ⤵️

@Harriet Thomas yep, I'm about to re-do mine as they seem to grow!
Your $9 community has a math problem 👀
DON’T EXPECT YOUR $9 COMMUNITY TO GET YOU TO $10K MONTHS Low-ticket communities sound great. Charge $9 a month. Get lots of members. Build recurring revenue. But there’s a math problem. At $9/month, you need 1,112 paying members to hit $10K MRR. And those paying members don’t magically appear. If you convert 20–30% of your community to paid, you’d need roughly 3,700–5,600 total members to produce those 1,112 paying members. And then you have churn. So unless you already have a massive audience, a strong ad engine or a reliable source of high-volume traffic, $9 is a volume game. I’d rather make the math easier. Start Premium at $49+ per month. Build reliable traffic into your free community. Create a clear reason to upgrade. Focus on traffic, conversion and retention. Then offer VIP for the people who want more access, support or faster results. You don’t need thousands of paying members to build a $10K/month business. You need a business model where the math actually works. So ask yourself: Are you trying to build a community that needs massive volume? Or one that can make more money with fewer members?

@Carrie Crews I hear you, I’ve set my first tier at $29 and am giving my time along with resources I use myself
Social media scheduler
Looking for suggestions, I have been using Sintra.ai for social media scheduling, its crap for most other things but I had paid for a year so figured I could just keep using it for social media scheduling until it runs out in March 2027. Now even its social media scheduling has collapsed, I have 2 distinct pages, and it keeps cross posting which is so confusing for my audiences. It's driving me insane and support just keep responding with "we don't know why". Anyway what are others using for social media scheduling, I use FB, Insta, and occasionally Tiktok and Pinterest. I have two page groups on both FB and insta, I only post on Tiktok for one and only on Pinterest for the other (its clothing sales). I like to be able to schedule 2 weeks to a month in advance. Any suggestions? I asked Claude and it suggested Metricool but I've never heard of that.

@Brenda Rigney yeah I have 2 different pages as I run a print on demand clothing store also, so I'll need to pay
I started my paid tiers
Thanks to the advice I have received here i finally did it! I now have free, basic and VIP tiers. Given I'm in the Aussie Homesteading niche I have called them Front Paddock, Top Paddock and Home Paddock. They are free, $19 month ($190 annual) and $99 month ($950 annual). I only have 50 members but given all the advice here I wanted to make it clear to my members that it was always going to have a paid element to the community. I have no problem asking for money for my expertise, I know I am good at what I do and have experience that others don't have. I'm still nervous as hell putting it out there. Wish me luck everyone. Thank you @Brenda Rigney for all the free stuff, I can't wait to see what you have in VIP

@Lindsay MacGregor I hope so, I love what I do, and earning money doing it is just the icing on the cake.

@Lindsay MacGregor such a beautiful way with words. Thank you.
Stop building your FREE community first.
This is one of the biggest mistakes I see. (and believe I went there too!!) You spend months filling Free with courses, resources, calls, templates and content. Then it’s time to create Premium and you realize… I already gave everything away. 😂 Now you disappear for another six months to build a Premium program. Meanwhile, the members you worked so hard to attract are losing interest. Do it backwards. Design Premium first. (say what??) Make it your signature offer. Make it the place where the real transformation happens. Then work backwards and decide what people need for FREE to get started and see what’s possible. Build the business first. Then build the free community around it. What shift does this make for you?

Just did it! I have a base level at $19 a month and VIP at $99 a month (with lots of goodies). Can't believe I did it...... I still have my free tier, I have no problem with keeping that but super excited to have the paid tiers. Now I just need enough to pay so I can join your VIP group, even half the money towards it would be enough! Woo Woo
