People love getting bonuses. It’s a great feeling to pay for something and then get a free bonus on top. You can use bonuses to increase your membership and sell your products.
Let’s go over five kinds of bonuses that you can use to promote your site
* website critiques or personal responses
* updated information and URL recommendations and reviews
* templates, worksheets and checklists
* up-sell discount or special offer for other products
* extended training, call in days and surprise bonuses
Depending on the kind of training that you do, you could offer to look at your members’ websites and provide advice on how to improve them. If you are teaching about content that is being presented online, make a video of yourself looking at their site and explaining your advice.
If this kind of video doesn’t work for your site get people to ask you questions and instead of emailing a response, record a personal answer on video to send them.
Most information on the internet becomes outdated after a fairly short time. Spend a little time once a month to go through the URL’s that you recommend and update them. This is a good selling point to promote to your customers because they’ll appreciate knowing that you are keeping them up-to-date.
Make learning as easy as possible for your members. You have shown them a step-by-step process of doing something; now give them a written checklist or worksheet so that they can do it again even if they forget some of what you taught them.
It is smart marketing to get your customers to buy more than one product from you. You can even sell them other membership sites content and products by joining the other site in an affiliate program. You can make commissions on sales to your members and promote your products to the other sites members.
One good thing about a membership site is that you don’t have to release new content that you have all at once. If you have a new idea under development but are not ready to put a whole new product in your site yet, think about recording the idea and putting it on your site as an extended training bonus. You can schedule it in now or later or even apply it as a surprise loyalty bonus for your long term members.
