My friend Stu McLaren is in the middle of what is sure to be a successful launch of a product or community where he teaches people how to build and maintain a membership site. The largest selling point to membership sites for the creators is recurring revenue. It’s the holy grail of commerce.
Netflix, Dropbox, Costco, Basecamp, Amazon (Amazon Prime); these companies have stability because they have recurring subscribers or people who pay to just be able to walk in the door and start shopping.
Why Would You Offer Hourly Coaching?
I love recurring revenue, and there are a few sources of it in my business, so why would I offer to coach by the hour? Why would anyone offer to coach by the hour?
If your entire business is based on hourly coaching, you’re exposing yourself to tremendous risk. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t offer it, though.
I’m opening coaching spots for entrepreneurs that want to grow their platform and influence. You should consider offering hourly coaching for some of the same reasons.
