The most important business model of community membership system

The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. Nobody can get up early without benefits, haha.

To be a community, except for non-profit organizations, such as property owners and community owners in our community, other communities need to formulate corresponding business models. Why? It is in response to the original purpose of the community: realization!

Some communities have clearly defined and planned the mode of community realization at the early stage of their establishment.

And some communities, in the process of gradual development, suddenly realize that they should seek opportunities for realization here and there.

Membership is the initial form of all communities, which deserves our understanding as friends of the community.

Membership system-the original form of community commerce

Membership system is the initial form of community commerce and the entrance form of community charges.

The earliest community membership system can be based on local chambers of commerce and associations.

No matter what kind of community, whether there are specific products or services, or just a small circle where people gather, as long as the promoters of the community set a threshold, no one can enter. Charging basic membership fees is a good way to screen people (content is another means of screening people) and improve the stickiness of community members.

The reward is true love. If community members are willing to pay to join the community, then basically it can be considered that this fan has a high sense of identity with the community.

In addition, you will cherish it if you pay. On the one hand, charging is the threshold, on the other hand, it will also encourage community members to cherish their membership in the community.

Collecting membership fees is not the ultimate goal of the community. Collecting membership fees is only a means of screening people. Community is an energy field, and membership fees are charged to find members with the same frequency to join. Therefore, membership is the most basic product provided by the community, not the most important form of community commerce.

Membership fees correspond to basic services or products provided by the community.

Whether the community can run well depends entirely on the services and products provided after joining the membership, such as the Chamber of Commerce, a specific community organization:

Provide industry information

Industry resource connection

Provide industry gatherings

The services and products behind the membership system are the basis of community commerce, otherwise they are all passive water and trees without roots.

On the other hand, from the point of view of community members, what did I get by paying money to become a community member?

Through the club, I learned professional knowledge?

Through the club, I met professionals in a certain industry?

I promoted my personal brand through the community?

Community members should have clear grades and upgrade requirements.

The rights and obligations of ordinary members and VIP members should be clearly defined, which is one of the most important means to motivate community members. Later, I will add many cases to help you better understand that different levels of membership systems have different services and products.

Membership and fees are just the beginning.
