The Easiest Way To Create Residual Wealth Is To Start A “Fixed Term Membership” Site

There is a much easier, more effective — just as profitable!! — way to start and run your own fixed term membership site that *will* be the “next big thing” because of its results. I call this kind of subscription program a “fixed-term membership” site. Let me quickly explain what it is…

Definition: “Fixed-Term Membership” Site

A “fixed term membership site” (FTM) consists of weekly content shared via autoresponder to paid members for a specified period of time.

In a nutshell, here’s what you’d do in running your own fixed term membership site…

1. Write ONE 2-3 page article lesson every week.
2. Load this article to an autoresponder for subscribers to access.
3. Sell access to the series, which would last 3 – 6 – 9 or 12 months.

It’s that simple.

And the benefits are the exact opposite of the barriers for traditional membership sites…
1.

Fixed-Term Membership sites can be setup in 48 hours or less! All you need to get started is one sales page, one article, one recurring billing processor (I.E. Clickbank or Paypal) and one autoresponder. Do you see how this can REALLY happen for you! Not “sometime in the future” … but, quickly! Literally, this week you can have your own money-making membership site taking orders.
2. Fixed Term Membership sites are easy to maintain! Instead of struggling to keep up with 3-5 fresh articles to your membership site week after week after week … all you need to do is write ONE new article every week for a short amount of time. And, here’s the best part, once you have your articles written … it’s evergreen! That means, long after you’ve moved on to other projects, you can still add new customers to the membership site to access the series you’ve already completed!
3. Fixed-Term Membership sites require no fancy, pricey add-ons! You don’t need to buy any high-fangled scripts to get a fixed term membership site up and running. All it takes to actually “run” the technical side of your site is an autoresponder account and recurring billing (Clickbank or Paypal) and that’s it. It is so simple that anyone can set this up within hours.
4. Fixed-Term Membership sites require very little time! Think about it: which takes longer to accomplish … (a) Write 3-5 new articles every week, moderating a forum, etc., or (b) Write 1 new article weekly? With a fixed term membership site, the only real investment of time you’ll have each week is to write one simple article to add to your autoresponder for members to receive. Hmmm, what could be better?
5. Fixed-Term Membership sites keep subscribers active! Here’s the beauty of the “fixed-term” model: subscribers will stay active longer. Why? Because with a “traditional” membership site there is no ending spot. There is no finish line. It just goes on and on, long after the subscriber has lost interest and moved on to other things. BUT, with a “fixed-term” membership site, there IS an ending … after X number of weeks, the subscriber will have COMPLETED the series and will no longer pay. Many will stay simply because they are “almost there”. And, when you factor in the numerous techniques I teach on “finishing” you’ll get subscribers hanging on the edge of their sites in anticipation for the end of the series!

Let’s look at a quick example of what a “fixed-term membership” site might look like…
