25 Content Creation Ideas for Your Membership Site Plus 85 Places to Find More Ideas

Content creation can wear you out.

Even though you may be a good writer and creative thinker, consistently working to crank out a string of valuable content for your target audience can turn into a “brain drain”.

Burning the candle at both ends, grasping at straws, and trying to pull content creation ideas out of thin air aren’t effective strategies.

Busy professionals who are also membership site owners or those thinking about starting a membership program …

Need good ideas FAST!

I wholeheartedly believe “content” will make or break your membership program.

Let’s say you’ve set up a three-month program for your members (also known as a “fixed term” program).  

The last thing on earth you want to experience is getting emails from people in month two that read, “This program isn’t really serving my needs.  I’m not finding much value here.  Please refund my enrollment fee.”

Ouch. 

Not cool.

To help you avoid this problem and the issue of burnout, I’ve written a guide entitled, “25 Content Creation Ideas for Your Membership Site” and I’ve included 85 places to find more ideas.

This guide is not currently in the marketplace.  You won’t find it anywhere on the internet.  It’s sitting on my hard drive.

However …

When you join me for a free virtual event on Monday, October 17th (replays available if you can’t be on the webinar), you’ll be given the opportunity to receive my content creation guide as a special bonus.

Hope to see you there! 🙂

    “Burning the candle at both ends, grasping at straws, and trying to pull content creation ideas out of thin air aren’t effective strategies.”

    Oh I don’t know.
    They’ve kept me going so far. LOL

    Only kidding Mel and… hope your Virtual Event knocks em dead, which I know it will.

    • Hi Keith

      Working with Kathleen Gage was an absolute blast.

      Co-hosting a virtual event can be somewhat of an anxiety-provoking experience — I’ll equate it with giving an impromptu speech. But we created a certain kind of “energy” between us that made it fun and fast-moving.

      Here’s the kicker ….

      After the presentation ended, Kathleen contacted me with the not-so-great news. The video portion of the webinar recorded, however, the audio did NOT. So she ended up re-recording it on her own so the replay could get out to folks a.s.a.p. — minus my voice.

      It’s almost laughable.

      My flagship webinar — my debut performance in the world of virtual events — was upstaged by a technical glitch. Go figure.

      Perhaps it’s a sign. 🙂

  • I’m already registered for this webinar and I can’t wait :). Thanks for creating the bonus document. I researched and planned a membership program in the past and would love to get one going now. I’m all for learning whatever I can so I can create an insanely valuable program.

    • Ooh … that’s exciting to hear, Leanne!

      When you get your new membership program up and running, please let me know so I can help to promote it — you know, spread the good news! I’m sure it’s going to be wonderful. 🙂

      And I’m so jazzed to know you’ve registered for the webinar. Kathleen Gage will be sharing a boat load of information.

      What I really and truly appreciate about Kathleen is her total transparency, how she exudes the highest level of confidence in whatever topic she’s presenting, and her exemplary teaching skills. She doesn’t beat around the bush and she delivers, as promised.

      Hugs,
      Melanie
      “See” ya Monday”

      • Thanks for the promotion offer, Melanie :). I appreciate that.

        I do like Kathleen’s “to the point” style. I don’t do beating around the bush well! I’m looking forward to the webinar.

        • You’re welcome, Leanne — would love to help get the word out.

          And maybe one of these days you and I can do a “promo swap”.

          I’ll be blogging about this strategy in the near future. It’s a very basic concept to get more eyes on your offers (or affiliate offers) but I don’t see many people using it.

          Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!
          Melanie

          • Oh, sounds great! I was talking with Lynn Brown about something similar a while back as well. You and I both know that we reach success together, not alone. I’m all for collaboration :). I’d love to hear more about it.

          • Way cool, Leanne!

            Hold that thought … 🙂

  • Are you kidding? I’m there!!! Can’t wait Melanie! Thanks for sharing awesome content with your friend, followers and your #1 FAN!!! (me!)

    • Dear Biggest Fan,

      So happy you’re the first person to land in the comment box! 🙂

      I think you’re really going to enjoy Kathleen’s presentation — it’s loaded to the max with membership program nuggets.

      Your biggest fan,
      Melanie
