I’m the CEO and Co-Founder of Memberium, the most popular membership site plugin in the Infusionsoft space.Memberium is the backbone of thousands of online membership sites around the world. Memberium customers range from the small specialized niche site owners to the biggest and most prominent marketers in the world. Big names who choose to use Memberium as their membership site solution include Jeff Walker, Infusionsoft, Lisa Nichols, Loral Langemeir and many other leading internet marketers…Despite its quick rise to the top, Memberium is only 3 years old. But I’ve actually been advising and working with membership sites owners for over a decade…In fact, I have personally helped thousands of site owners worldwide, in different areas ranging from technical to strategic parts of their businesses. And again, these people range from small niche site owners, to 5-, 6- and even 7-figure business owners.So I truly know the challenges that membership site owners face at each phase of their business. And most importantly, I know what works and what doesn’t – I’ve seen it time and time again with my own eyes.And I want to make one thing very clear here:My experience isn’t hypothetical, ‘pie in the sky’ stuff.I’ve been down in the trenches, getting my hands dirty!I’ve designed membership sites myself. I have the in-depth technical know-how required to build online membership site businesses from the ground up. I’ve created the content. I’ve done the sales, the marketing. I’ve developed software and built out affiliate programs for other membership site owners and Memberium itself… and the list goes on.In other words, my experience doesn’t come from ‘lofty strategic advice’. It comes from time-tested methods. It comes from real-life experience with building out real-life membership sites.So I guess you could say that helping membership site owners achieve (and surpass) their amazing potential is my absolute passion.Because to me, membership sites are the vehicle through which gifted, talented people like you, can reach people’s lives and change them for the better.And there’s no better way to do that than via a membership site. :0)INTRODUCING…Membership.CoachYour Online Membership Site Resource & Safe-HavenThat’s Got Your Back Every Step Of The WayHere’s Everything You’ll Get When You Join…The Membership.Coach Program10 Membership Mastery ModulesMembership.Coach is all about embracing that 80/20 rule.It leverages my years of experience of advising and working with thousands of membership site owners, including wildly successful 5-, 6- and 7-figure business owners.And it focuses on that magic 20% based on what stage your membership site is in…Think of the Membership.Coach Training as your foundation.
