Create a Membership Website and Generate Passive Recurring Revenue

A membership website is an incredible way to create an ongoing stream of passive, recurring revenue, while providing enormous value to your online community.
Check out Stu's incredible free workshop series on how to launch and grow a successful online membership business! - femaleentrepreneurassociation...
This video is all about how to create a paid membership site. When I first started building my membership site on WordPress back in 2011, I could never have imagined the impact that it would create, or the recurring revenue stream that I would be able to generate for my business. I know that if I can become a successful membership website creator , with no technical knowledge or background in the subject, then you 100% can do it too.
The great thing about a membership site, as a source of passive income, is that as you add content over time, you are creating more and more content for your users, and so creating an even more valuable product, which will keep your current members satisfied and keep new members interested in joining. AND, with plenty of different website creation platforms out there, you can create a membership website free , so there’s no excuse not to give it a try!
Follow my steps in the video and start coming up with great membership site ideas yourself! What topic do you want me to cover next about how to create a successful membership site? Let me know and we’ll make a video on it!

Great video! I'm just starting to shift to a membership model for virtual assistants and it's refreshing to hear a creator (you) be so honest about the work that it takes going into these sites. Thank you!

[@Themoodcollab]

Every time I watch your video about the cost x number of members I stop and put it in my calculator and my jaw drops lol 😂 So amazing all that you have built for yourself and the women in your membership!!

[@vendlikeaboss6971]

Me too !

[@lilyugbaja]

I did that too 😆😆

[@evesj100]

Me too! I am like…what does that figure look like yearly!

[@marriageministrymotherhood2761]

I'm determined to start. I've been listening to you a couple of years and have been convinced but never had the time. I'm ready. I equip and empower women to be confident wives and moms

[@buddycushman2851]

I love this. Thank you so much Carrie. I'm 75, have retired (again) from work, and have decided to create and publish a Blog filled with stories truly worth reading. A paid subscription Blog. I'm completely clueless regarding the technology - I need help - and it is lovely to hear your conversation here with all these suggestions. I'm a new subscriber here, and will be back often.

[@learntothrivewithadhd]

I'm a coach for entrepreneurs and professionals with ADHD. I started a membership previously but my people were kind of lost as to what to do in what order. I'm excited to build again.

[@dmac8605]

Thanks so much, Carrie! Amazing info. Cutting through a lot of confusion on where to start.

[@jesse_sweed]

I love the honesty of this video. You served me so much here. Thank you!

[@thedecorativelife]

I teach speciality paint techniques. I'm going to build an email list and then a Membership !! Thank you for your advice and inspiration!

[@GeorgiexoxoTV]

I found Stu through you and I'm so thankful! Absolutely loving his free series this week. Beyond inspired by your own business and journey 🥰❤️

[@hughgallagher]

Who is Stu?

[@gabriellawinters7855]

@@hughgallagher in some other comments I saw the name Stu McLaren mentioned so it might be him - hope this helps

[@bonzapelican]

Excellent. Refreshingly no BS advice and great insights, especially about not launching "to crickets". Looking at starting a Japanese food box subscription site. Many thanks!

[@lifelaiddown]

We (my husband and I) have a worship band called Life Laid Down and I am a vocal coach/inner healing and deliverance minister and we want to start a membership for our band to have monthly supporters to fund our music ministry since we are working on that full time. We are new at the brainstorming phase on what we can offer than people will be willing to pay every month for.

[@BethPavlik]

Awesome, I grabbed the freebie! I'm ready to get this membership site launched asap!

[@TammiMorrison]

I have been thinking about doing a membership but was always discouraged by different coaches, but I have a vision to do a membership where they get monthly healings, calls and trainings and access to me. I am an intuitive healer

[@yourboireviews3977]

Do it !

[@BlossomandRise]

This was SUPER helpful in helping me distinguish more of what I want to do in my own membership site. Thank you!!!!!

[@VinhLai]

I LOVE your desk and your design 🌸Just subscribed to your channel. I want to start a business to help parents and care givers with parenting and emotion coach. Just trying to work the best way to go about it. Thank you for the tips! Now it's time to put in the hard work.

[@marvingore4852]

Very valuable and factual information. Thank you. 👍🏾

[@Lamond169]

Great video! I am starting a membership site about Cryto but had no idea how. Well, I know the direction I am going now. Thank you!!!

[@blancamcmurray9292]

Such great information! Thank you so much!

[@theconfidentvegan]

Such great tips! I look forward to checking out more of your content!

[@c.feinstein6733]

This was very encouraging! Thank you!!!

[@nurinsyirahbh]

I’m a mom coach and I’m a former early childhood educator. Was thinking of creating a membership site for me to conduct activities with their children..

[@Tone_Team]

Just discovered you on a podcast. Incredible stuff you do. Bravo

[@ShesConnectedweCOUNT]

Connecting women with audience growth opportunities!

[@teenagedream06]

To me, I'm thinking of creating a community membership for introverted and ambitious women, to help them thrive in their lives and not being hold back by their introvert personality. My membership ideally will be made of monthly training session around a specific topic, ressources such as videos and podcast to check, exercices notebooks, and I hope experts coming along. Memberships like this are still quite rare in France, so I'm really looking forward implementing it. :) thanks Carrie for your awesome content

[@soraiasakkaidou1588]

Learning french n would love to eventually reach out ! Lol or do translations :D Wishing you success !

[@diaryofanhonestmom]

This is so helpful, thank you!

[@jenniferhill1750]

Thank you Carrie. Very interesting and helpful. Just struggling to work out how much I should charge

[@SmartHomeMakers]

Hello! What metrics do we need to look at before launching? Like 10k subs on KZbin?

[@plrwiththedigitalmom]

I would love to build a membership site for digital products. Members would have access to digital products every month.

[@bigglesfam]

The content I've been searching for

[@yourhealingartist111]

This is brilliant! You have really inspired me. I had wondered whether it was right for me, fearful of having to do too much content. You'bve mad eit so clear; i help people gain emotional wellness through Emotion Code and creative expression. It would fit perfectly and a great place to place my ideas.

[@yellownoiseclub]

I've thought of an idea for a member's but I'm trying to build the website now and getting registered as a company etc

[@baqirhussein1109]

Hi, i am on my way to build a membership site, and you helping me alot by your knowledge. 😊

[@lawrencelandeloos3761]

How are you building it? Love to learn

[@forevergwladys]

This was helpful - thank YOU.

[@ADHD_SHORTS]

Great info! Thx! 😊

[@chalonw]

I’m not sure if it’s your microphone but I can’t hear you. I hear you talking but I don’t hear it clearly because the sound is not loud enough

[@aqibjattjatt7392]

its realy helpfull

[@kellyferrothemagicalmedium4018]

A spiritual community ❤

[@traceydeason971]

Great video. As a trauma recovery coach I'm creating a membership around personal growth and healing. I just don't quite know the what and how and where yet.

[@PinkGirlTeaches]

What’s your website? I do similar work.

[@soraiasakkaidou1588]

Same with some other overlaps. Maybe we should connect

[@lornanakell6795]

I have a podcast, I Am My Passion Project, that partially focuses on women healing from betrayal trauma. Would be interested in hearing what other folks in this area are offering.

[@perezhenry264]

I’m a basketball trainer - and a certified transformational coach - looking to start a membership - just don’t want to overwhelm My audience. Any suggestions ?

[@SuccessMindset2180]

2:00 Choosing a niche would help me I guess

[@meditationmaster1254]

good video. i just found out what i want my mebership website to revolve around.

[@mountainmermaidco]

How about a yoga membership that offers 10-15 minute mindful meditation practices along with sound healing, pranayama breathing practices to help regulate the nervous system as a daily self care practice. Getting a new one each week for a total of 4 videos a month. What would that be worth to people interested in receiving that kind of membership package?

[@sergiosolanas8143]

Vale permitido pero necesito de ti que pongas el peligro que tenía con mi enfermedad las estadísticas etc me puedes hacer este favor?si quieres mete el fragmento de tu libro en donde escribes sobre esto por favor?

[@morganbrown753]

so good - thank you

[@ZaneNeale]

How much did it cost to build this site?

[@personalinjuryshow]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@terresagrace3767]

I am a midwife and trauma informed coach. How might I implement a membership site?

[@beyondmyself2969]

Wow🎉❤❤

[@BulletproofCycling]

Lovely video Carrie. Thank you. I am looking to expand my business into this area as it's a natural progression for me as a coach. You gave me some great ideas

[@moneymilf]

My industry is spirituality and I would love some more info on creating a membership for that industry

[@GardeningForProfit]

The name of the software would have been helpful

[@TheJW0202]

In your opinion: what would you recommend for a website builder that customers need a subscription with maybe 1-3 payment options (yearly/monthly) for a site almost like “founders card”. Same features needed basically! Especially community based :)

[@PinkGirlTeaches]

This was the very question I came to ask.

[@lawrencelandeloos3761]

You mean adding a tiered membership to your website builder? Depends on what the membership provides: exclusive content, bookings, other...?

[@rolandlundall133]

Hi Carrie. Can you help me with advice please. I want to build a membership site in my industry but am not sure which web builder platform to use. Either Wix, Kajabi or thinkific. Can you advice me.

[@lawrencelandeloos3761]

What type of membership is it? What functionality are you looking for?

[@mrdanishtech]

i am new fan from pakistan

[@ugwuokeobiageli3694]

How can I contact you ?

[@BrightAgeBeyond]

Helpful

[@anyamarie6526]

I have an instagram page with a following of 100k. It’s all about saving money, personal finance and budgeting. I wonder what membership I could do. Thanks x

[@iangraham6730]

I'm never getting them 13 minutes back...

[@CurtZilbersher]

Carrie, I have a LinkedIN group for work-from-home Moms that has 48,000 members and I want to leverage this audience to build a membership site to help empower them. Do you think your membership site would be useful for me, and would you even let me join (since I'm a guy)? PS. I've researched YT videos on creating membership sites for about a month and am also familiar with Stu McLaren and his TRIBE group which doesn't open again until next year.

[@CarrieGreen]

Curt, thanks so much for taking the time to reach out! So sorry, our membership is currently only for females, but Stu is fantastic! We wish you the best of success ❤️ - Kerry, Team FEA x

[@cherchang8481]
