All these systems work with and rely on the others to help you reach your goals and keep your sanity as an entrepreneur.\n\nIf you're ready to up level your membership site this year, put on your game face and let's dive in!\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/22d3c4c0-membership-site-content-creation-strategy.png\" alt=\"d\u00e9couvrir des strat\u00e9gies pour cr\u00e9er du contenu pour votre site d&#039;adh\u00e9sion\" width=\"450\" height=\"289\" \/>\n<h3><strong>Cr\u00e9ation de contenu<\/strong><\/h3>\nL'une des plaintes les plus fr\u00e9quentes que j'entends de la part des propri\u00e9taires de sites d'affiliation est la suivante <a href=\"https:\/\/subscriptioncoach.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mes conseils<\/a> is how labor and time intensive it is to create new content for their members month after month, year after year. Sound familiar?\n\nFinding the right balance of content for your paying members and then creating systems for content production will go a long way toward running a low(er) stress membership site and keeping your members happy.\n\nAnd given the breadth of topics covered on membership sites all over the web, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of how much content you should be producing. There is often a fine line between not enough vs. too much content depending on the nature of your membership site and the expectations of your members.\n\nIf you are running a site full of hobby hungry retirees with a lot of time on their hands, you're going to need to feed that need. However, if you're teaching business skills to single parents who are scrambling to keep their heads above water while trying to squeeze in time for your site, you need to err on the side of caution so you don't overwhelm your members to the point where they give up.\n\nHowever, by keeping a tight pulse on the health of your site through KPI tracking (especially churn rate), engagement tracking, community participation, and surveys, you should be able to create a content calendar that is tenable to your audience and manageable for you.\n\nGoogle Analytics and any reporting data on content consumption will be your best friends here as well. Get into the data and see what people are watching, reading, listening to, and participating in to see what's popular and what's superfluous. Keep an especially close eye on your overall site engagement, churn rate, community chatter, and content consumption as you make changes.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/c50a6fe6-create-content-for-membership-sites.png\" alt=\"cr\u00e9er un contenu que vos membres aimeront\" width=\"100\" height=\"78\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Comment cr\u00e9er du contenu que vos membres aimeront <\/strong><\/h4>\nSurvey paying members to keep your ear to the ground, so to speak, and adjust your content strategy accordingly. Talk to your power users and get them to weigh in on your content strategy: the frequency at which you should release it, the medium in which they like to consume it (video, audio, text, other), and the contents of what you're releasing. Exit survey responses should also be considered when deciding on the amount and types of content you need in order to reduce churn.\n\nSet accurate expectations up front of what your members can expect to get when they're learning about your site and what you have to offer. If you tell them exactly what to expect and they indicate they're good with that, (by paying you...) you're off to a great start!\n\nThat's not to say you can't make changes over time, you just need to create buy-in from your members and adjust marketing messages before doing so.\n\nOnce you find your \"sweet spot\" \u2013 that perfect place between too little and too much content \u2013 you have the opportunity to delight your customers with anything extra you bring to the table. I'll say it again: underpromise, then overdeliver = delighted customers and brand evangelists for your membership, aka power users!\n\nAnd though you're the topic expert\/celebrity on your site, consider allowing others to produce guest content, provided of course it's highly relevant and useful to your members.\n\nMake a list of topic experts you can interview for a podcast, provide a guest article for your site, co-host a webinar with, or even create a workshop or course for your site in exchange for some level of access to your members. I feel certain there are experts out there looking to build their email list who would want to provide serious value to your members in exchange for some level of access to them.\n\nIt's worth saying that you must set boundaries and expectations up front of what your guest content will need to look like and the level of promotion for the guest's product or service that will be allowed. A relevant mention in an article and an opt-in opportunity for a lead magnet is commonly accepted.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/73e4a7e5-repurpose-your-content.png\" alt=\"r\u00e9utiliser tout le contenu que vous cr\u00e9ez pour vos membres et abonn\u00e9s\" width=\"91\" height=\"100\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Work Smarter &amp; Repurpose Your Content<\/strong><\/h4>\nVoici un autre petit conseil pour \u00e9viter de vous surmener (tout en touchant tous les styles d'apprentissage possibles) : Enregistrez tout votre contenu sur vid\u00e9o,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/rev.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">le faire transcrire<\/a>, and then extract the audio.\n\nHaving your content 3 ways makes it easy to repurpose as well. For instance, if you speak at a trade show, conference, meetup, or a small business association, make sure that that talk gets recorded so you can best utilize the video, audio, and text of that talk.\n\nThat same tactic can be applied to any guest content that you produce for other publications: get permission to use the content for your own site, or even use it to inspire a spin-off workshop or course within your membership.\n\nOn the topic of repurposing content, if you align your content strategy inside your membership with your promotional\/content marketing calendar, you can make your job significantly more efficient! The key is to batch create content for your membership, then strip down certain pieces for your blog, podcast, YouTube channel, and so on.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/47c7f3cb-free-vs-paid-content-members.png\" alt=\"apprendre une puissante strat\u00e9gie de contenu gratuit ou payant\" width=\"100\" height=\"90\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Choisir le contenu gratuit ou payant<\/strong><\/h4>\nPour bien faire, il faut se concentrer sur une strat\u00e9gie de contenu gratuit ou payant. Le moyen le plus simple de cr\u00e9er un contenu gratuit continu et frais est d'utiliser le <a href=\"https:\/\/themembershipguys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Les gars de l'adh\u00e9sion<\/a> approche : supprimer les <em>ce que<\/em> et le <em>pourquoi<\/em> du contenu, mais laisser le <em>comment<\/em> portion of the content for your paid members only. Then you can point your free readers to the problem's solution, which is inside your paid membership.\n\nFor example, if your membership teaches people how to build their own email lists, let your non-member readers know <em>ce que<\/em> ce qui signifie et <em>pourquoi<\/em> c'est important, mais expliquez <em>comment<\/em> to build the email list inside of your membership site, behind the paywall. It\u2019s critical to offer a lead magnet opt-in form on each piece of free content so you have the opportunity to capture and then strategically nurture leads via an automated email campaign.\n\nOnce you have an understanding of how much and what types of content to produce, you need to land on a free vs. paid content strategy. Then, create a robust content calendar. If you haven't done this before, start with a loose outline of what you're going to produce and publish over the next quarter. Work backwards from there to determine how you're going to coordinate that content and who all needs to be involved in its production.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/51cf3d2f-create-content-in-batches.png\" alt=\"apprendre \u00e0 cr\u00e9er du contenu par lots pour votre site d&#039;adh\u00e9sion\" width=\"90\" height=\"100\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Le secret le mieux gard\u00e9 d'un cr\u00e9ateur de contenu efficace<\/strong><\/h4>\nThen set aside a dedicated chunk of time at regular intervals (one to two per week ongoing) to batch produce and schedule the release of that content. Just as with every other system you set aside time to manage, you need to treat these content planning and production times as sacred \u2013 they are not to be interrupted or scheduled over.\n\nAnd do yourself a huge favor and start creating cheat sheets (process documents!) on how to schedule out and batch produce your content. Refine these over time for maximum efficiency and employ automations and delegations as necessary. If you use the content stripping method I described above for your marketing efforts, include your methodology and step by step instructions for doing so on your PD, too.\n\nWhen you batch produce content your ability to <a href=\"https:\/\/storeagent.ai\/online-store-ai-tools-and-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">take advantage of automations<\/a> increases as well. You can schedule emails to be sent, blog posts to be published, podcasts and videos to be released, courses to unveil, and so on.\n\nFind a content production rhythm that works for and excites you. You started your membership site, at least in part, because of your enthusiasm for the topic you're teaching \u2013 so enjoy your time actually teaching it! If you can get yourself off of the content production hamster wheel and create appropriate systems, process documents, and automations, this should be a fun part of your job and relieve a lot of stress.\n\nOk! We've covered our first system. Up next is <strong>Gestion communautaire<\/strong>.\n\n\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/677ccbb8-membership-community-management.png\" alt=\"conseils de gestion de communaut\u00e9 pour les sites d&#039;adh\u00e9sion et d&#039;abonnement\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/>\n<h3><strong>Gestion communautaire<\/strong><\/h3>\nOnline communities within membership sites can be one of the most valuable features of a site to its members and one of the most effective retention strategies to employ as the site owner.\n\nMike Morrison has this great phrase with so much truth behind it, often on a membership site \"people come for the content and stay for the community.\" Some type of group interaction like a forum or Facebook Group can be the differentiator between a membership site where people show up, consume the content, and churn before the 90-day mark, verses those who stick around for many months or even years because of the value and relationships they're getting from that group interaction.\n\nGranted, an online community is neither valuable nor appropriate in <em>tous<\/em> mais il s'agit souvent d'un sc\u00e9nario <a href=\"https:\/\/membermouse.com\/fr\/temoignages-de-clients\/creer-un-site-dadhesion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">l'exception<\/a> rather than the rule.\n\nAt the outset, running an online community requires a great deal of intentionality, time, and cultivation. Starting a community is not a decision that should be taken lightly, but when done well, the benefits far outweigh the costs.\n\nWhether you have an existing community or are thinking of creating one, begin with the end in mind. Meaning, cast a vision for what a successful community would look like within your membership offering and work backwards to create your strategy for bringing that vision to life. Write down what your ideal membership community would look like: What kinds of discussions would happen there? How will participants get the most value from it? What does a \"successful\" community look like in my mind?\n\nOnce you have a broad vision of your ideal community, start asking yourself: How can I write out rules and guidelines for participation so that my vision can come to fruition over time? How do I get new members to feel comfortable participating? How much would I like to personally participate? Who else could help me implement my vision? What would I need in terms of content moderation? How much discussion would I need to seed in the beginning and as time goes on so the community doesn't look like a ghost town?\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/351b54d0-set-expectations-new-members.png\" alt=\"embarquez vos membres de la bonne fa\u00e7on\" width=\"91\" height=\"100\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Fixer les bonnes attentes pour les nouveaux membres <\/strong><\/h4>\nAs with every part of running your site that involves prospective and current members, proper expectation setting from the get-go will save you many headaches. Your marketing should reflect your community accurately. Hopefully that means a kind, welcoming, helpful bunch of people who are invested in each other's success. Then, during the onboarding process, make sure you get your community's rules and guidelines in front of, and ideally agreed upon, by the new member when they create their user profile. On an ongoing basis, it's your responsibility to enforce those rules (yourself and through moderators) and cultivate the community you cast the vision for from the beginning.\n\nWhen a new member scans through member discussions, the attitude of the community should reflect how it was advertised. If you have welcoming forum participants, your new members will be far more likely to jump in without fear of being berated and embarrassed.\n\nIf you have an established community that needs some work, changing the culture can be tricky, but it's certainly doable. If you suddenly start clamping down with a bunch of new rules, that might be really disruptive and not accepted by current participants. Positive changes will likely need to be phased in over time very strategically. Start interacting more yourself, seed discussion, and work with some of your positive, influential community members to adopt your new vision and be change agents for others. Community curation is a long-term play. Cast a vision and get others to help you implement it to stay on track.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/3959ae29-create-community-vision.png\" alt=\"d\u00e9finir la vision de votre communaut\u00e9\" width=\"100\" height=\"93\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Cr\u00e9er une vision pour votre communaut\u00e9<\/strong><\/h4>\nIl n'est probablement pas surprenant que la premi\u00e8re \u00e9tape de la cr\u00e9ation de syst\u00e8mes pour votre communaut\u00e9 en ligne consiste \u00e0 en d\u00e9finir la vision <em>et<\/em> write it down. This may seem silly, but as soon as you start to bring on moderators and delegate some responsibilities, this vision document will come in handy.\n\nNext, set forth rules and expectations for community participation based on your vision statement. Write these down and get all participating community members to agree to follow them. Include what happens when rules are broken \u2013 even eventual dismissal from the membership.\n\nNow start your process document which will outline in detail things like: how often you participate and what kinds of discussion you engage in, how and what kinds of conversations are seeded, moderation rules, what time zones you need moderators in, how you want your moderators to interact, how you will encourage (through onboarding and beyond) your members to be active community contributors, any relevant technical details, and so on.\n\nIt might seem ridiculous to write this all out, but the reason is twofold: so you have a decision making framework from which to refer so you can run your community in a way that aligns with your original vision, and so you are able to delegate tasks more easily in the future.\n\nIf you need to seed discussion in your community, here are a few ideas on how to do that:\n<ol>\n \t<li>Si votre technologie le permet, faites d\u00e9marrer automatiquement un fil de discussion dans votre forum pour chaque \u00e9l\u00e9ment de contenu que vous publiez. Ainsi, toutes les conversations relatives \u00e0 ce contenu se trouvent au m\u00eame endroit, m\u00eame pour les futurs membres.<\/li>\n \t<li>Lors de l'accueil, invitez les nouveaux membres \u00e0 d\u00e9marrer un fil de discussion sur leurs progr\u00e8s. Cr\u00e9ez un forum sp\u00e9cifique au sein de votre communaut\u00e9 pour ces fils de discussion individuels afin qu'ils n'encombrent pas les autres conversations et assurez-vous que vous et vos mod\u00e9rateurs lisez ces fils, encouragez les membres et donnez des conseils le cas \u00e9ch\u00e9ant. Si vos membres suivent leurs propres progr\u00e8s, il est facile de prouver la valeur de votre adh\u00e9sion, car vous disposez d'un moyen tr\u00e8s concret de voir le chemin parcouru par chacun d'entre eux depuis leur adh\u00e9sion.<\/li>\n \t<li>Demandez aux gens quels sont les probl\u00e8mes qu'ils rencontrent par rapport \u00e0 votre th\u00e8me d'adh\u00e9sion. Cela vous permettra de trouver de nouvelles id\u00e9es de contenu et d'aborder les probl\u00e8mes de front.<\/li>\n \t<li>Demandez \u00e0 chaque nouveau membre de se pr\u00e9senter sur un forum sp\u00e9cial r\u00e9serv\u00e9 aux pr\u00e9sentations. Assurez-vous que les membres du personnel accueillent ces nouveaux membres de mani\u00e8re proactive et demandez aux autres membres de la communaut\u00e9 de faire de m\u00eame.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nEn ce qui concerne votre participation personnelle, il est bon d'\u00e9tablir des attentes pr\u00e9cises quant \u00e0 la fr\u00e9quence de votre participation directe \u00e0 la communaut\u00e9 du forum de discussion. Ainsi, si vous \u00eates pr\u00e9sent dans la communaut\u00e9 jour apr\u00e8s jour, les gens s'attendront \u00e0 ce que vous soyez pr\u00e9sent jour apr\u00e8s jour, 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7 et 365 jours par an. Les gens vous traitent de la mani\u00e8re dont vous leur apprenez \u00e0 vous traiter. Par cons\u00e9quent, si vous attendez de vous que vous <em>toujours<\/em> Si vous avez l'intention d'\u00eatre pr\u00e9sent sur le forum, on attendra de vous que vous remplissiez cette mission, ce qui n'est tout simplement pas viable \u00e0 long terme.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/be149804-be-there-for-your-members.png\" alt=\"Soutenez vos membres et soyez l\u00e0 pour eux\" width=\"100\" height=\"74\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Comment \u00eatre pr\u00e9sent pour vos membres<\/strong><\/h4>\nIt's likely that a lot of your members joined your site to be able to interact with you directly, so you need to show up, but as with every other task you need to repeat regularly, set aside time to be active in your community and stick with it. It's distracting and highly inefficient to jump from one task to another, effectively putting out fires all day. Being reactive in your business instead of proactive comes with a high cost.\n\nIf you have people on your team who can speak intelligently about your membership topic, assign those people days and times (cover all relevant time zones) where they are in the discussion forum, paying attention and actively responding to members' questions. Having staff members, a VA, a trusted sub-set of members, and\/or moderators able to engage with the community on your behalf is necessary for sustainable growth and a vibrant community.\n\nAgain, follow the steps above take the time to create a PD for explaining your approach to curating the community. This process document will allow you onboard new moderators, a membership or community manager, or any other necessary staff member with relative ease.\n\nThere aren't too many automations to be had for community management \u2013 it's a lot of hands-on work. However, ensure you can tag individuals within conversation threads and receive notifications for those and that you can automatically have a discussion thread created for each relevant content piece you publish.\n\nA successful membership community is one reflects your vision, is active, and clearly fosters a group dynamic of encouraging and helping each other. Creating a PD and applicable automations will position you to delegate, scale, and stay sane.\n\nWe're moving right along! Next let's take a look at <strong>Customer Service &amp; Success<\/strong>.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/1dc8d3ec-customer-service-membership-sites.png\" alt=\"conseils en mati\u00e8re de service \u00e0 la client\u00e8le\" width=\"450\" height=\"287\" \/>\n<h3><strong>Customer Service &amp; Success<\/strong><\/h3>\nCustomer Success systems are the means by which you help your members achieve the success you advertised. You start setting expectations of what results your members can expect to get with your marketing messages. When you have a prospect, who decides they'd like to trade their money for those results, it's your responsibility to do everything within reason to help them succeed.\n\nSet up automated processes through your onboarding and ongoing customer management to truly deliver on the promises you made to your members when they were considering joining your site.\n\nFollow the steps I recommended in my <a href=\"https:\/\/membermouse.com\/fr\/marketing\/accroitre-lefficacite-du-site-dadhesion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">deuxi\u00e8me article<\/a>\u00a0in this series to create a stellar onboarding sequence \u2013 this is your first opportunity to help your new member get value from your site.\n\nIt\u2019s worth noting that engagement tracking truly falls under the umbrella category of Customer Success, however, it is such a broad and important topic that it deserves its own System, which you can find in article #2 of this series. I won\u2019t mention engagement tracking again within this section, but know that it is vitally important to customer success. Put the processes and automations in place recommended in the engagement tracking section in the previous article for best results.\n\nOne key component to ongoing customer success is to create a culture where feedback is not only accepted, but carefully considered and when appropriate, acted upon. Set the expectation during your onboarding sequence that you and your staff are just an email, online chat, or even a phone call away to help remove roadblocks to member success. Reinforce that attitude through your online community interactions and on a one-on-one basis.\n\nWhenever you speak with a customer, have empathy, show kindness, apologize when necessary, and be solution oriented. If you have an upset customer, treat that as an opportunity to delight them! If that member\u2019s experience is so overwhelmingly positive when they approach you for help, they'll actually be a happier customer than before they had the problem.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/b81b3bd0-ask-for-member-feedback.png\" alt=\"demander et \u00e9couter le retour d&#039;information de vos membres et de votre communaut\u00e9\" width=\"100\" height=\"74\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Demandez \u00e0 vos membres un retour d'information honn\u00eate<\/strong><\/h4>\nSurveying your current members one to two times per year is absolutely necessary. This furthers your culture of feedback and will likely turn up some useful information. I like to ask a few multiple-choice questions regarding content, the community, and overall experience for ease of data aggregation, but also offer a section for freeform feedback, whether positive or negative. A survey shouldn't take longer than 2-4 minutes to complete and make sure you thank people after they take it.\n\nWe recommend surveying different segments of your members based on their engagement level with your site. You will want to ask your power users different questions than you would your least engaged group. The least engaged group is far less likely to participate in a survey in the first place, so consider simply saying via email, \"You are a valued member of our site and I want to help you succeed here. What problems or technical issues are keeping you from using the site more regularly? I'm here to help, please hit reply and let me know what we can do for you.\"\n\nIt's smart to ask your power users for referrals on a regular basis, again once or twice per year is appropriate. You can offer an affiliate program, special offers for each the referrer and referred if you like, but your happiest members are likely to provide referrals for free if you just make it easy for them. To do so, provide an email template or simple sell sheet with a special offer (discount or add-on benefit) that current members can email or text to a friend who might be interested in your site. Make that offer time or spot limited to encourage quick action. And most importantly, don\u2019t forget to <em>demander en fait<\/em> pour les recommandations. Il ne suffit pas de mettre ces outils de vente \u00e0 disposition sur votre site pour inciter \u00e0 l'action dans 99% des cas.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/6b7d0512-customer-support-for-membership-sites.png\" alt=\"strat\u00e9gies de soutien \u00e0 la client\u00e8le pour les adh\u00e9sions\" width=\"99\" height=\"100\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Une strat\u00e9gie de soutien \u00e0 la client\u00e8le pour les sites d'adh\u00e9sion<\/strong><\/h4>\nUsing a purpose-built tool for support tickets and the overall customer service experience is hugely important with regard to systems, processes, automation, and delegation.\u00a0 Using your Gmail account to handle support tickets is inefficient and unscalable.\n\nWe love HelpScout and highly recommend them, but no matter which service you use, it should be a purpose-built tool for customer service. A tool like HelpScout allows you to create attractive help documentation, live chat support, sophisticated reporting and more. Use a customer service tool to create templates and other helpful resources so you can delegate your customer service at some point.\n\nOne of the most successful, yet simplest customer success tactics we've seen employed by a number of membership sites is to send out a weekly email to your members with the aim of building excitement around your service and drawing people back on to the site.\n\nThat email should include a warm greeting, highlight recently released content, popular community conversations, upcoming content, and occasionally a quick member success story. Get a template in place with your email service provider and set aside time each week to create this email. Test different copy, content, and send times until you reach optimal open and click through rates. Refine a PD for this weekly email over time and delegate the task to a VA or staff member.\n\nProper expectation setting, creating a culture of feedback, surveying, using a customer service tool, and keeping tabs on member engagement are foundational to customer success. Your members joined your site to achieve some sort of outcome \u2013 it's your job to pave the way for them to get there and feel successful. Create PDs for every piece of this puzzle for efficiency, scalability, and sanity.\n\nThat's three systems down and one to go! <strong>Gestion g\u00e9n\u00e9rale<\/strong> est notre syst\u00e8me final.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/2039a97b-general-membership-site-management.png\" alt=\"conseils g\u00e9n\u00e9raux en mati\u00e8re de gestion d&#039;entreprise pour les sites d&#039;affiliation\" width=\"450\" height=\"353\" \/>\n<h3><strong>Gestion g\u00e9n\u00e9rale<\/strong><\/h3>\nCette cat\u00e9gorie servira de fourre-tout pour tout ce qui n'est pas couvert par les syst\u00e8mes d\u00e9crits ci-dessus.

La fa\u00e7on la plus simple de calculer le taux de d\u00e9sabonnement est de diviser le nombre total de membres sur votre site au d\u00e9but de chaque mois par le nombre de membres qui se d\u00e9sabonnent \u00e0 la fin du mois. Par exemple, si vous avez 1000 membres au 1er mars et que 50 se d\u00e9sabonnent au 31 mars, votre taux de d\u00e9sabonnement est de 5% (50\/1000).<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>MRR et ARR :<\/strong> Revenus r\u00e9currents mensuels et revenus r\u00e9currents annuels.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>CAC :<\/strong> Co\u00fbt d'acquisition d'un client. Il peut \u00eatre difficile \u00e0 calculer avec pr\u00e9cision, mais il s'agit essentiellement d'additionner tous les co\u00fbts associ\u00e9s \u00e0 l'acquisition de nouveaux membres (frais de publicit\u00e9, agence ou responsable marketing si n\u00e9cessaire, toute technologie associ\u00e9e, commissions d'affiliation, etc. Par exemple, si vous g\u00e9rez votre site en solo et que vous consacrez 15% de votre temps \u00e0 des activit\u00e9s li\u00e9es au marketing, plus des co\u00fbts mat\u00e9riels de $6500\/an, vous devez ajouter 15% de ce que vous vous payez \u00e0 $6,500, puis diviser par le nombre de nouveaux clients que vous avez acquis l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re. Voici un exemple : supposons que votre salaire soit de $100 000\/an, 15% de ce montant repr\u00e9sentent $15 000. ($15 000 + $6 500) \/ 250 nouveaux clients = $86 CAC par nouveau membre.

La plupart de vos efforts en tant que propri\u00e9taire d'un site d'affiliation devraient \u00eatre attribu\u00e9s au CRC, car il est exponentiellement plus co\u00fbteux de recruter un nouveau membre que de conserver un membre existant. Cela inclut toutes les d\u00e9penses techniques n\u00e9cessaires pour faire fonctionner votre site, toute la production de contenu et l'\u00e9quipement associ\u00e9, les honoraires des experts invit\u00e9s, les repr\u00e9sentants du service client\u00e8le, les assistants personnels, et bien d'autres choses encore. Proc\u00e9dez \u00e0 un audit des d\u00e9penses et faites le total de ce qu'il faut pour que vos membres soient satisfaits et paient chaque mois, puis divisez ce chiffre par le nombre de membres que vous avez. C'est votre CRC.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Taux de conversion.<\/strong> Il existe de nombreux taux de conversion que vous pouvez suivre, mais les plus importants pour les sites d'affiliation sont ceux qui sont associ\u00e9s aux efforts de marketing.

Il est important d'en tenir compte pour savoir quels sont vos efforts de marketing viables (rentables + fiables) par rapport \u00e0 ceux qui ne donnent pas les r\u00e9sultats escompt\u00e9s.

Si votre LCV est inf\u00e9rieure \u00e0 votre CAC, vous \u00eates en difficult\u00e9 - cela signifie que vous payez plus pour acqu\u00e9rir un nouveau membre que ce qu'il vous verse pendant toute la dur\u00e9e de sa pr\u00e9sence sur votre site. Cependant, pour cr\u00e9er un site d'adh\u00e9sion r\u00e9ussi et rentable, chacun de vos clients doit d\u00e9penser beaucoup plus que ce qu'il vous en co\u00fbte pour l'acqu\u00e9rir.

There are seemingly dozens of options in each plugin category and endless customizations from there. If tech is not your strong suit, the best ways to save yourself countless hours of research and headaches (not to mention enormous switching costs of technology mistakes down the road) is to consult with an expert who can guide you to the right tech stack based on your specific needs.\n\nThat being said, most memberships sites need: a membership plug-in, possibly an LMS plugin, a discussion forum (whether that\u2019s a plugin or standalone), payment processor, customer service tool, <a href=\"https:\/\/membermouse.com\/fr\/documents-3-2\/laudit-de-lactivite-des-membres-a-laide-du-journal-dactivite\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">suivi de l'engagement<\/a> un fournisseur de courrier \u00e9lectronique, un fournisseur d'h\u00e9bergement, un logiciel de comptabilit\u00e9, etc. \u00c0 partir de l\u00e0, tout est possible en fonction de vos besoins sp\u00e9cifiques et de votre budget.

Tools have their place and some are extraordinarily useful and necessary to run your membership site. Create a PD that includes your decision making parameters for evaluating any new technology. You should dial in on any process related to running your business before you considering handing that task over to an app or similar tool. The takeaway: get professional help with your tech stack if that\u2019s not your area of expertise and only add new tools as it makes business sense to do so.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/1010b98e-master-your-finances.png\" alt=\"ma\u00eetriser les finances de votre site d&#039;adh\u00e9sion\" width=\"100\" height=\"88\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Ma\u00eetriser les finances de votre site d'adh\u00e9sion\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\nJust as technology might not be your core competency, if finances aren\u2019t your thing, get a bookkeeper to keep tabs on your money each month, coupled with a smart CPA to help you maximize your earnings and grow your business. This is a relatively low cost approach to financial management. A remote bookkeeper + a CPA shouldn\u2019t cost more than $5000 or so per year for a business grossing less than 5 million annually.\n\nIf you have a background in finance or accounting and can take care of this area of your business with relative ease and a low time commitment, power to you. But as your site grows and you are needed to perform more RGAs vs. day-to-day tasks, be realistic about when it\u2019s time to outsource.\n\nEvery business needs accounting software regardless of your personal level of involvement in keeping the books. We use Xero and also recommend Quickbooks. That\u2019s a key part of your tech stack and shouldn\u2019t be overlooked.\n\nIn addition to higher level financial management I strongly recommend running an expense audit every quarter to ensure you're not spending unnecessarily. I'm a strong proponent of running a tight ship, and as entrepreneurs, if we're spending superfluously, that's less dollars in our pockets.\n\n<img class=\"embed-center\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wpgcbucket\/wp\/2019\/04\/1e0c528b-staff-management.png\" alt=\"g\u00e9rer les membres du personnel\" width=\"100\" height=\"88\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Staff Management: Hiring, Outsourcing, &amp; More!<\/strong><\/h4>\nDe nombreux sites d'affiliation sont g\u00e9r\u00e9s par 1 \u00e0 6 personnes, et souvent seulement 1 ou 2.

Les t\u00e2ches les plus courantes que les sites d'affiliation confient \u00e0 d'autres personnes (par opposition \u00e0 une application SaaS ou \u00e0 une autre technologie) sont les suivantes : gestion financi\u00e8re, gestion de bureau ou t\u00e2ches de secr\u00e9tariat, gestion de la communaut\u00e9, gestion technique, service client\u00e8le, r\u00e9daction, \u00e9dition, production de contenu, marketing (gestion des m\u00e9dias sociaux, \u00e9dition de podcasts, \u00e9dition de vid\u00e9os, planification g\u00e9n\u00e9rale, etc. <a href=\"https:\/\/subscriptioncoach.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">coaching &amp; consulting<\/a>.\n\n<a href=\"http:\/\/upwork.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Upwork<\/a> is a great place to start when looking for help, as is asking for referrals from your network, on Twitter, LinkedIn, and job boards. The most important thing is that you make the right hire at the right time for the right tasks.\n\nTransitioning from a solo operator to a manager of others and CEO is a huge leap. Don\u2019t walk into it haphazardly or without a plan. This is another area where getting outside help, even from books, blogs, forums, and podcasts is essential to success. Making the right hire can accelerate your business and change your life for the better. Making the wrong hire can be a major productivity suck, cost you a small fortune, and cause copious amounts of stress. Think I\u2019m being dramatic? Think again.\n\nBear in mind that if you\u2019re going to have frequent interaction with your hire, that they need to be a strong fit with your company culture. They should share your values in the way you run your site and how you treat your customers. It\u2019s better to hire someone with a mediocre skill set and a strong culture fit vs. someone with stellar skills whom you can\u2019t stand. Skills can be taught, whereas character and values are harder to change when you\u2019re dealing with adults who have decades of deeply ingrained views on the world.\n\nCreate a company POV (point of view). This is the one page document that breaks down in layman's terms why your business exists. A prospective employee should be able to read that POV document and understand the character, values, and direction of the organization. Just as process documents help you create a decision making framework in other areas of your business, your POV should provide a framework for the type of people you hire.\n<h3><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\nWhew!
