Growing Your Membership Business With a Data-Focused Approach
If you’re running a business, it’s important to keep track of membership churn and survey members to find out why they are leaving.
Gathering feedback from members and analyzing usage data can help identify what features are working and what needs improvement.
It’s important to pay attention and make changes based on feedback instead of just sticking with a plan that may not be effective.
Keeping an ear to the ground can give you a preview of what’s happening faster than analyzing raw statistical data, especially for smaller sites.
One of the most common problems members face is not having enough time to implement the content, even if they are retired.
Rather than adding more content and features, membership site owners need to continually refine their offering to find what will solve their members’ challenges.
Many membership site owners make the mistake of adding more content and features in an effort to retain members. But they need to take the time to survey their members and find out what they actually need and are struggling with.
According to Matt, the key to retaining members in a membership site is changing the content to make it closer to what will help members the most, which sometimes means less instead of more.
If you’re struggling to figure out how to create a successful membership site, Matt Ingot suggests that solving recurring problems provides ongoing relief for members and keeps them paying for the membership.
Identify your target audience’s recurring problems through surveys and build your site around providing ongoing solutions.
Solving recurring problems provides value to membership site owners in the form of ongoing revenue. But how do you maintain that value?
Learn from Matt Ingot’s experience and analysis of customer lifetime value. He suggests that removing the monthly plan and focusing on annual plans can be beneficial as it doubles the lifetime value of each customer.
