Jill Stanton is the co-founder of Screw the Nine to Five, her and her husband Josh’s slice of the internet where they teach unsatisfied webpreneurs how to eliminate the overwhelm, focus on the right tasks and build their businesses strategically.

Jill joins me to share the secrets she has learned to get high retention rates and creating raving fans for an online membership program. She explains the four pillars that keep your community members engaged, how she encourages member integration into her online community, and how she uses her free Facebook group community as a funnel tool to promote her paid membership program.
