DRIVE TRAFFIC TO THE DIRECTORY FOR COURSES (SEND FOLKS TO PRIVATE MEMBERS ONLY AREA CONTENT FOR LEARNING HOW TO DO X - TESTIMONIALS, ETC - AND THEN EMBED THOSE VERY TESTIMONIALS IN THEIR PROFILES - THIS WORKS FOR THERALIST, TOO!)

  1. Directory for paying members
  2. Paying members get wall of love embedded  (for example - they get discoverable searchable profile, tagged appropriately  - with ONE post - which has their testimonials, reviews, wall of love embedded, etc)
  3. lots of curated content too (lists of businesses using the bookmark feature)
  4. they get marketing services for more Testimonials (ongoing continuity optional)
  5. Included in curated featured (authors page)
  6. add events/blog posts, discounts, offers, etc (multi-author page)
  7. newsleter (flodesk + ghost or whatever) (add special offers for the public featuring member offers)
  8. public discounts!  (for folks who subscribe to blog - or newsletter - email offers from authors on the site)
  9. A membership site with resources ?  (may not work as well with a local site as with the Theralist community)
  10. agency offers for AUTHORS  (consulting/carrd landing pages (one or two designs only) makreting stuff (like PDF's for realtors, etc)
  11. affiliate and JV opportunities (ecommerce ecosystem - reach out to folks who serve the current market - and partner with them on the paltform - .e.g - give them a profile - with testimonials - separate category - recommended vendors - and let them sell their services to our audience)
  12. affiliate program set up (using something like rewardful - or lemon squeezy - for folks who want to sell stuff on our platform)
