How To Create The Right Membership For Your Audience!

Author: Shane Sams October 19, 2021 Duration: 50:21

Today's guest on the podcast is Flipped Lifestyle community member, Daryn Ross! Daryn caught the entrepreneurial bug his sophomore year of college when he started selling apparel and supplies to fraternities and sororities. His business exploded due to his ability to get items to his customers quickly.

His business went nationwide when he started selling products through catalogs. Daryn sold that business in 2017 and is looking to get into podcasting and running a membership site! He is starting a podcast called Patriots with Grit.

Shane Sams and Daryn talk about the importance of investing in yourself and learning from the experts in your field. They also discuss how comparison and distraction have held Daryn back from getting started with his online business.

Another obstacle for Daryn has been the technical component of running an online business, but he and Shane discuss how to find a simple way to create content, connect community, and coach people and not get too bogged down with tech.

In today's episode you'll learn:

The key to running a membership site is to find a simple way to create content, connect community, and coach people

How to get past the fear of complicated technology

How to create the right membership for your audience

The importance of figuring out what problem you are solving for your members


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.
