Each week we bring a member from our Flip Your Life Community for a one on one call with us, this week we have Pete Miller who has been in the insurance business for over 25 years. We go over ways Pete can protect his website from hackers - the possibilities of how spammers will try and log into your forum, add comments onto your pages, the importance of having software to protect your access and the need to encrypt your passwords that are long with unique characters and are not easy to guess. Learn what we suggest to get traffic to your website. We give Pete two ideas on how he can kickstart his growth and get more traffic to his website. If you're just starting a membership site your initial draw is content. You can't rely on the community in the beginning, but rely on the content and your ability to start conversations and answer questions. We talk through some concepts to help you be successful with your membership site when you only have a handful of members [Tweet "How to kickstart your membership community"] You will learn What does it mean to protect your website? How to make sure your Identity isn't stolen. Where to get encrypted passwords. Update Your Plugins. How to get traffic to your website. Getting started with the membership site. How to run a membership site with only a few members. Using ads in the beginning of your membership site.

Can't Miss Moments Each week Jocelyn and I share moments that we might have missed if we had not started our online business. We hope these moments inspire you to see the possibilities and freedom online business could provide for your family. So, this week, we had Isaac's last swim meet of the year and this was a new thing for us. We had never done competitive swimming before and it was kind of a trying year at times because it's a lot to ask of a six and seven-year-old to be at practice like three days a week. But we made it through and he improved tremendously over the season, we are just so proud of him, he is proud of himself and we are looking forward to the next season. You can connect with S&J on social media too!   Thanks again for listening to the show! If you liked it, make sure you share it with your friends and family!

On today's podcast, we help Pete start a membership community for insurance professionals. Welcome to the Flipped Lifestyle podcast, where life always comes before work. We're your hosts, Shane and Jocelyn Sams. Join us, each week, as we teach you how to flip your lifestyle upside-down, by selling stuff online. Are you ready for something different? All right, let's get started. SHANE: What's going on everybody? Welcome back to the Flipped Lifestyle podcast; it is great to be back with you again this week. For those of you who may be new to the show, the Flipped Lifestyle Podcast is a little different than other podcasts you may listen to; each week we bring a member of our Flip Your Life community on and we give them a live, consulting call on the air and then we share it with all of you who are listening today,

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.
