My Best Tips for Starting Your Bookkeeping Support Membership

Here are my best tips to help you start your own bookkeeping support membership, share your expertise, and create a recurring revenue stream for your bookkeeping business.

Tip 1: Create a Membership That Solves a Problem

Before you dive into creating your membership, think about your ideal members and what challenges they face. What do they need help with on an ongoing basis? A successful membership is all about solving a specific problem or providing consistent value. Focus on building a membership that offers resources, content, or training that will keep your members coming back month after month.

Tip 2: Choose Between Open or Closed Enrollment

There are two main types of membership enrollment: open enrollment, where new members can join anytime, and closed enrollment, which only opens at specific times during the year. Open enrollment gives you more flexibility, while closed enrollment creates urgency and exclusivity. Consider which option aligns better with your business goals and capacity.

Tip 3: Set the Right Price for Your Membership

Pricing can make or break your membership. When determining your price, consider the value you’re providing and the effort it takes to maintain your membership. You want to strike a balance between making it affordable for your members while still reflecting the value of your expertise and content. Don’t be afraid to test different price points or offer different pricing tiers to cater to a variety of budgets.

Tip 4: Plan and Automate Your Content

To avoid overwhelm, plan your membership content in advance. Whether it’s monthly video trainings, live Q&A sessions, or downloadable resources, having a content calendar keeps everything organized. Automate as much as possible, like using email sequences or scheduled content delivery, so you can focus more on engaging with your members and less on day-to-day tasks.

Tip 5: Market Your Membership to Attract New Members

Once your membership is ready to launch, it’s time to get the word out. Leverage your existing email list, social media platforms, and client base to spread the news. Offer sneak peeks, early bird pricing, or bonuses to entice people to join. Marketing your membership is an ongoing process, so regularly share success stories, testimonials, and behind-the-scenes updates to keep interest high.

FAQ

Q: What kind of content should I offer in my bookkeeping support membership?
A: The content you offer depends on the needs of your members. You might provide monthly trainings, worksheets, live Q&A calls, or exclusive resources that help them stay on top of their bookkeeping or business finances. Focus on offering valuable, actionable content that will keep your members engaged.

Q: What’s the best way to promote my membership when I’m just starting out?
A: Start by reaching out to your existing network—current clients, your email list, and social media followers.

Q: How do I handle member cancellations or drop-offs?
A: It’s normal for some members to leave over time, but you can reduce this by keeping communication open. Send reminders about upcoming content, highlight the value of staying in the membership, and regularly check in with members to see how you can better serve them. If someone cancels, make it easy for them to return in the future by offering re-entry at a later date.
