FL 76 – Helping Marianna launch her membership site for bilingual parents

Author: Shane Sams February 2, 2016 Duration: 26:23
Marianna moved from Venezuela at 13 with her family eager to learn English. Unfortunately, the school district they moved into didn't have a great ESOL program, so she spent most of 6th, 7th and 8th grade watching movies and being taught in Spanish instead of learning English. Fortunately, she had great teachers in High School. This made her excel even pursue other languages in her college career. Instead of pursuing her intended path to take law, she went on to teach English and instill the things she would have wanted for herself as a young English learner to her students. Now, she helps other parents raise bilingual and bicultural kids through her business bilingualavenue.com. We talk through some of the struggles of a new membership community -- about not focusing on getting in as many people as possible immediately, but on getting the RIGHT people into the membership. [Tweet "Scarcity is the best way to get people to buy on a webinar"] After spending a lot of time giving away free content there is a point in time that you will need to spend money to get in front of new people with paid advertising. We talk through if this transition is right for Marianna. You will learn What to do when starting a membership community Remember Memberships Grow over the Long Term Ways to Retarget People Great Webinar Strategy Focus on one thing when having a webinar What a webinar Bonus is really there for Difference Between 'stick' & 'scarcity' Strategy to Promote already created content Batching your content together [Tweet "Focus on getting QUALITY emails, not just on the quantity of emails.

Hosted by Shane Sams, the Flipped Lifestyle™ Podcast is a conversation about building a business that actually fits around your life, rather than the other way around. It’s born from the real-world experience of Shane and his wife Jocelyn, a family who created a million-dollar income entirely online. They focus on the practical mechanics of selling digital products and running membership sites-essentially, creating valuable information and community that people are willing to pay for. This isn't abstract theory; each episode digs into the systems, mindsets, and sometimes surprising tactics that worked for them as they built a location-independent career. You’ll hear candid discussions on the challenges of shifting from a traditional job to a self-directed online venture, managing family dynamics alongside business growth, and the ongoing work of sustaining success. The aim is to provide actionable insights for anyone feeling stuck in a conventional routine and dreaming of a "flipped" reality where work supports life on their own terms. Tune in for a straightforward, often humorous look at the entrepreneurial journey from a couple who is still actively living it, sharing their lessons so you can chart your own course.
