How To Turn Your Coaching Business Into A Membership w/Ben Pugh

How To Turn Your Coaching Business Into A Membership w/Ben Pugh

Author: Shane Sams October 12, 2021 Duration: 34:27

Today's guest on the podcast is long-time Flipped Lifestyle community member, Ben Pugh! Ben is the host of the IMPACT: Parenting with Perspective podcast, where his mission is to help parents who are struggling with their teens and want a better relationship.

Ben has a successful business in which he coaches parents, but he is trying to transition from 1-on-1 coaching into a membership model. Shane Sams and Ben discuss different approaches that Ben can take to build his membership, which currently has 5 paying members.

Ben's membership is a bit complicated because he has partners who are also involved, so how can they best serve their members, and how much should they be charging for group coaching, individual coaching, and the membership?

It's also important to remember that your business doesn't have to be an "either/or" business; you can have a membership and also offer more personalized services.

In today's episode you'll learn:

  • How to take your coaching business and turn it into a membership
  • Your membership can include coaching; it doesn't have to be either/or
  • Do the things that make your business profitable
  • How to handle running a membership with partners

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.
