FL 149 – We help Simone ramp her Christian music membership site into an engaging indie artist community

Need ideas on how to build your membership into an engaging community? Listen in as we discuss strategies on membership community to help our guest for today. On the Flipped Lifestyle podcast this week, we have the online entrepreneur behind ECHE Music, Simone Henry. Having been born to a family passionate about music, Simone grew up loving every aspect of it and used to sing in their church with her sisters. She was also fascinated with business and the internet, and went on to college and got a degree in Information Systems from business school. The Christian Jukebox was a wondrous blend of her many passions. She had gotten the idea after her sister emailed from Spain asking for help to find a recording of a song for the accompanying musicians to play during her performance. Simone did what any devoted sister would do, she scoured the internet but couldn't find a quality recording. She thought "there ought to be a place on the internet where I can get quality Christian music," and thus, The Christian Jukebox was born! This was simply the beginning. She later relinquished The Christian Jukebox and had launched ECHE Music in 2013. Her latest venture intends to bring together indie Christian artists, helping them learn about the music industry so that they can better spread their positive message to the world as well as sustain their lives and ministries. Simone is determined to turn her current membership layout into an indie artist's nest. Her question now is, how does one create an engaging membership community?

Success Story of the Week: Today's Success Story comes from Paul and he writes, "My initial sales funnel is a success!" "Alright, I just made new sales funnels based on who joined my list using which mini course. Now, this month alone, I've sold $203.00 in a la carte courses. I feel like the fly wheel is starting to turn. Maybe, just maybe, it will gain more speed and free me up to do what I prefer to do - teach - allowing me to pay for editors to post my backlog of content and ideas." Awesome job, Paul! We love seeing momentum.
