What's the Perfect Price for Your Membership? (Data-Backed Answer)
You launched your membership, started coaching, maybe even built a course — and somehow you're more burned out than before you started. The problem isn't that you need to create more content or offer more of your time. The problem is that you've made yourself the product — and that model doesn't scale.
In this episode of People Magic, Gina Bianchini breaks down why freemium communities backfire, how to price your offer using the Three Rs framework, and the critical mindset shift from expert-driven content to member-to-member connection that transforms your community into something durable, energizing, and profitable.
In this episode, you'll learn:
• Why freemium communities lead to more work, less engagement, and less revenue
• How to use results, replacement, and respect to price your membership with confidence
• The real difference between a cohort, a challenge, and a course — and why the distinction matters less than you think
• Why one-on-one coaching as your premium tier is a trap that leads to burnout
• How to design a framework your members move through together
• Why connecting your members to each other is the single most powerful driver of engagement, retention, and growth
