I'm curious, why did you decide to move off facebook?
Hey, someone took your profile picture @Gillian Perkins and just created a "text me" account here on TH-cam and is replying to comments ❤️
Whoever is reading this, I pray that whatever you’re growing through gets better and whatever you’re battling with makes your situation better as you’re continuing to be a better person each day. I have faith that you’ll turn out great as your circumstances will change. Have a fantastic day! You got this! 🤗💪🏼❤️
Thank you so much!
I needed that it was a nice little surprise 🎉
Praying and praying lately. Knew I had to stay strong. Woke up to this membership idea. Think I’m gonna try it out see how it goes. Seems like a great idea.
You are such a kind person! So glad the world is blessed with you.
Thank you ❤🙏
Have a few very casual ideas. This video is very helpful and you are rather naturally inspiring and encouraging. I'm 51 and have worked LONG hours for my entire life. I need to take the plunge and you're pushing me over the edge. I think I'll check your membership site out.
I am in the process of starting my membership site. You are God sent and a true inspiration
Hi Gillian, I stumbled on your videos searching for content to guide me on my building a community concept. This sprang forth from the work i have been doing the past year on my podcast and my motivational speaking. I discovered a very healthy group of interested and talented ppl that kept coming to me, or inviting me or joining me for various virtual connections, meetings, and projects. It occurred to me that it was time to bring these ppl together into a group that could utilize all of our collective brainpower, resources, experiences, and skill sets to help ourselves and others step into and onto their entrepreneurial journey. I loved your approach, personality, ease of familiarity, and genuine interest in helping others discover how to do this for themselves. There are so many options that iut can be very overwhelming and you feel like a friendly, warm, and loving mentor that I can turn to for advice and guidance. Thank you so much for this video and I will def be checking out the 100k startup society material!
Did things a little backwards from how you did, but I soft-launched a membership about a month ago....have 35 members so far. Funnel is built but still being tweaked...sales are mostly coming from past students and a trickle from social media for now with a temporary sales page. Definitely keeping your mastermind in...mind! lol Great info, thank you
Thank you for the 100K Mastermind program, I am learning so much in it!! I want to do a membership site too, already have an online school and I think turning into a membership site would be perfect right now.
Awesome Video... Thank You Very Much For Sharing. I am creating memberdhip site right now. I searched for "creating a membership site" . Your video was the second video I watched. I got a little discouraged while watching the video (not your video) then I decided to watch another video and it was yours. I'm so glad I didnt stop after the first video.
Love this Gillian, you’re so inspiring and I love the opportunities business models like this offer for ways to leverage your time!
You are so welcome! ❤️
You're such a motivation! Being pregnant and preparing for a launch, and working, and caring of your family... wow. Just wow. Looking at you, I feel like no excuse is an excuse. Even a war! Looking at you, I get inspired to 1) survive, 2) launch my course and membership site no matter what. Thank you for this inspiration bit, Gillian! Warmest wishes from Ukraine.
Cool!
When at least one project will be launched?
@@anthonybreaux4741 membership site, beta-version, is already launched via Patreon. I hold monthly masterclasses there, which I will then transform into a full-fledged course. Planned this summer.
And yep, today I finished my new e-book, in Russian. I'll need to get started with the translation of my novels into English, but this is a long shot for now.
Anything else you'd like to know? ;)
My heart goes out to you. Stay safe!❤
@@LilCraftyNook thank you! 🌷
Thank you, Gillian. Would love to learn more about your current take on starting a membership site. Thank you.
I'm more "membership-curious" than completely sold on the idea, personally. This vid gave me food for thought. Thanks!
I created a course years ago and tried to launch and failed but now with technology improved...im ready to try again.
Yes! Try again have you launched?
I'm considering starting a membership-only podcast. using short-form videos as a teaser to draw an audience. ideally, have 12-14 episodes pre-recorded before the launch and drip feed a new episode into the library every 2 weeks.
I appreciate the parts where you thank God and emphasize how you implemented the ideas as they came to you. I’m doing that as well!
You got this! ❤️
Thank-you so very much! This is greatly inspiring! My wife and I are working with the indigenous communities in mountains in Mexico. I am working at making extra money to help the locals more, in fact I would like to find a way of helping them to make money online. I was getting setup to use affiliate marketing, however, I hadn´t considered membership sites. I must say that is an appealing idea. Maybe that would be the way to go. Thanks again!
my husband is in lawncare & landscaping and I feel that!!!
Thanks Gillian. Lots of good info on your channel so I had to sub! 😉
Just at the beginning stages of determining the membership site concept as well as a few digital products. Really interested in the paid advertising aspect. In particular using TH-cam ads. So any future videos on that and campaign optimization would be AWESOME!
Will certainly look at your site and the content (Looks like you have loads). Also signed up for the sales funnel webinar so see you this Saturday!
Awesome! Thank you!
Hello Giljian, I thank you for all your progress..Following you Fatima from Yemen
MORE MEMBERSHIP SITE CONTENT PLEASE!
Hi Gillian, thanks for the video. I had a question while I was watching: you said you had 300 people on your waiting list, but when you sent the last email you got 500 responses. Were there more people on the list or another list, or... btw, how did you do it? Thank you for your attention!
Gillian you are so amazing and dedicated ! Thank you for your wonderful videos! I am curious- what star sign are you ? 🥰
I missed something... can you clarify....The individual workshops that you started with... went into the membership or those were used to gage if there's a market?
Omg. I have been your fan from July 2020. Your videos provide tremendous value and part of it comes from your clean heart and transparent mind. I can create content on a few engineering subjects and host them on a site. But i cannot be active each month to take live classes. So can i still run a membership site! I mean i can add 5 videos each month in the background but not live sessions. Does it work in a membership site?
Hi Gillian, Would love to take the course but...I need to finish 'Creator Fast Track' first. I hope at some point, one of your team members will suggest your others courses that would be best for me:):):)
I have been dreaming of starting a math help website. I struggled with math in high school and then found a love for teaching math. I have taught algebra through calculus for 30 years and have created almost 2000 help videos for my students. My students consistently encourage me to get these videos out to students on a large scale because they find them to be very helpful and have aided many to successfully complete courses they would otherwise find it difficult. I haven’t had the know how to start this yet but your video has helped to inspire me to get started.
Good day? How are you doing and how is work towards your idea coming along? I'm interested in something along this line and I have a bunch of ideas but passionate teachers are always a plus and not an easy find.
Those original five videos you did - where did you host them to start and did you charge the people to join or just give it away free to get started?
Hi! Thanks for the video...what's the platform? I heard everything else but that. Thanks!
Awesome episode
Thanks a lot you inspires me ro do my own membership.
I’m thinking of starting a membership site, and don’t know where or how to start. I’m from Miami, FL., and need someone to literally hold my hand on a step by step process. I like your approach, seems very genuine and would like to learn more on how to get started, and what you offer etc.
If you reach out to contact@gillianperkins.com my team can give you more information on the products we offer. 🙂
🖤🎯 I needed this 💯
Very inspiring, attracting and great ideas and motivation
How did you grow your initial audience/ waiting list??
I truly appreciate you sharing your story Gillian.
I'm grateful for the way you're comfortable sharing your faith.
It's helpful for someone like me - a young, believing student.
I have been thinking of something like this for the last 3 months
(just a little more blurry than the way you explained it).
So this sheds a LOT of light onto my path ✨
I hope this helps you as you think about your future content.
Thank you so much!
#1 question: if I haven’t even launched my blog yet should I go with a free FB group first, then work up to a membership...or just go for it! Would love to see more videos about starting a membership! Interested in all the moving parts, and how it works with generating other streams of income.
What did you decide ?
I’m all for the info. My question is I’m super new to building subscribers and have maybe 2 followers. Which consists of my mom 🤣 Idk what to work on first tho because in my head I want to do all the things and then just get overwhelmed and do nothing slowly! Would membership be something to do now or work towards?
How do you do all of that with young children? What do you do with your kids while you are learning and implementing this?
Where did the people come from for your waitlist?
I'm working on the content and site design. I've been streaming on twitch answering questions
I’d like to start a membership site where I upload videos that people can learn from so I am wondering what a good or the best platform is I’m hearing Punjabi but I don’t have a lot of money and I want to get started right away great video
You are a star.
How did you charge durring those first five workshops?
I would really like to do a membership site for my business, but right now it is just an idea. I have been unsure of whether to offer my course and then a membership separately or to offer it all together as a membership...
AWESOME!!!!
What platform is your membership on?
How would I set up a private paid membership?
I have an idea for a membership site...focused on foster parents of teenage girls. I would like to create coaching videos or parenting emails for foster parents. What do you think? Thanks
Gillian, have you ever considered ditching the membership and going all in on TH-cam?
I've set up an online paid membership group for a particular group of women on a new platform. This new platform will support my members well but will not help attract and deliver new people as does Facebook. So what do you think about creating a public FB page to attract numbers of people I can screen then invite to the other platform in a paid membership? Facebook will send people to my public group for free if there's enough activity. Can't I build the private paid membership group with FB as a resource?
So you started a "How to earn money online" site before you had made money online yourself?
Awesome!! I have been a Start Up Society member for about 5 years now and I love it. I haven't always been active on the platform because I've had 3 babies since then, but I have grown a lot! We are worship musicians doing our music full-time! But we need income streams to help us make the music, travel and tour, market, and all the things. So, here we are looking at a membership site!! 😁😁😁 I am still working through other action plans to solidify our foundation. Our TH-cam channel now has thousands of streams and 146 subscribers and its only a month old. So, there is our first focus, then the membership!
Sounds like a great plan! I'm so thankful for your support over the years. ❤️
@@gillianzperkins 😄💝
I'm working on ideas so that I can make it worth to potential paying money for. I'm just starting my TH-cam channel - MANY ideas for content!!
But what if we are business to customer?
Everyone that I know that sells memberships are selling to other businesses.
I would like to help more clients relieve pain than I can physically help one on one.
Thank you madam
you forget to mention that you need an audience to sell them something.. how big was your audience when you launched your membership?
Today it's extremely difficult to grow a membership unless you have an audience or email list.
Hello. I am on the idea phase. Thanks for educating us about how to do it.
Pls put me in business. I have a co-investment integrated farm project. But dont have money to start.
Guide me on how to organise my wait list and proceed to membership site of the farm. We basically farm together and share ROI upon harvest of produce. The membership is for Nigerians in diasporal and local community members are the focus point as they can easily access and visit farm location.
I like how you thank God.
I'm reading in between the lines and feel as though your Faith helped you too 😊.
Yup, picking up on things that don't exist is the specialty of the dull-witted.
0 informations how to start
My podcast, "The Happiness Show" will be launched soon. My idea for a Memberwhip S8te is to share uplifting quotes, where I share how to apply that quote so they live their life consistantly on the Love Path. I am working with a mentor.
Indeed, thank you, GOD 😁
Video is titled How I Started a Subscription Business in 6 Months. Then the first thing you say is “it really all started back in high school.” What?? Title is a complete lie.
Are most of your clients men or women?
Just curious
✔
i am a Texas real estate broker. for 45 years. I am experienced in recruiting agents to my brokerage. I only offer that my agents keep 100 commission. I would like to build a brokerage that offers training. , commmunity . i will check out your mentorship
While you are awesome for doing this and you are so professional.. essentially, you created this business around creating this business. Which means, you're selling access to learn how to sell access..
SO, in your own words: You were not able to sell anything online but workshops about online success??
😁😘
you're a beauty
I thought this video was going to be how to do it.
Really?
Wait a sec..How were you able to teach ppl on how to start online businesses w/o having a successful on line business? You never mentioned having a successful online business, but you just decided to teach others how to obtain one? 🤔
Not gonna lie I'm a little pissed off. This was just a pitch for her private class instead of actually giving us an inkling of how to do any of this.
Praise God 🙏🏼😊
Clown show, this is what's wrong with the ''guru'' world.
You say you did'nt earn anything and started to teach how to earn online... Disgrace.
Thank you for this video, you are really pleasant to watch :-). We'll hopefully be building our sales funnel with initial content before launching the membership site. We've got really great content. My Facebook inbox is already full of people asking for my advice on the topic, so I think it's time!
*Must Read For Everyone*
I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have, so don’t just be a thinker be the doer because luck sticks with the doer and When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place.
*More of this is in my contents, you may check it out*
Thanks for reading
I love you 💕💕💕
So not going to ur channel 👍
