Why I ganked a potential 7-figure membership site

Here’s a crazy - but true - story about membership sites: Back in 2016 I created & launched a membership site called “elBenbo’s Apprentice.” It was by far the most successful launch of my business up until that point — putting nearly 1,000 members inside in just a few days, and building the foundation for a business that I believe could have easily reached into the 7-figures over time. But before the launch was even over I killed it off. Yes, I figuratively turned it around, put it on its knees, and ganked it execution-style. Why would I do that? Because before the launch was over I was already sick of the endless string of support tickets from people (sent to me personally, and not to the clearly-displayed helpdesk email address on their receipts, in the welcome email, on the site, etc) who weren’t mailed their links, who needed passwords reset, and who didn’t get the automated instructions for joining the private Facebook group. I was also already sick of the bandwidth problems caused by so many members piling in so quickly. Already sick of the shopping cart limitations when it came to payment options. And already sick of the entire operation being dependent on a team in a different time zone — while also having to keep up with a never-ending cascade of WordPress security patches, plugins, & updates… having to think about hosting the content on multiple different clouds & video/audio platforms to prevent disruptions in service… and the list went on and on and on. Today, with all the big tech hijinx going on, it’d be even worse. Well, guess what? The frictionless membership site secret we teach up inside the Subscription Biz course not only can potentially eliminate ALL the above hassles and more — but can require no tech team, no spending your life chasing support tickets, and potentially no even needing a website. Plus, even more interesting: This frictionless membership site model also has a “built-in” mechanism for creating potential feeding-frenzy-like customer engagement with your content. Very powerful if you want a super engaged & happy customer base. And, this is especially true if you want them buying your other offers. More: Even though the course highly recommends using mobile app technology to host and run your membership site (in our professionally biased opinions...), we included an interview with a Wishlist trainer & former military instructor who worked for our software companies at the time, and who has taught over 26,000 web developers how to use Wishlist, and who has done over 100 membership sites between himself and his clients — including for multiple 7 & 8 figure-earning membership sites. He talks about connecting a membership site to all your marketing, payment processing, and other back-end selling tools. All right enough. The deadline to get it is tonight Friday 3/11 at midnight EST. Less than one short hour from when I am sending this. Depending on when you are reading it, it could even be too late. Either way, after that it won’t be available to the public for sale. And the next time it’s available it’ll be a whole lot more expensive.
