How to Make $3,335 from the Back of a Taxi

memberships

We met at an event in Canada.

And like most of the 800 people in that room, Lucy was excited.

"This is my last chance," she told me. "I've been talking about this for ages, and if I don't do it now, I never will."

She hated her job, and she needed out, pronto.

 

During the coffee break, she told me her business idea, which sounded great.

"Go for it, you've got nothing to lose." I told her.

 

As happens at these events, I didn't see her again until the final day.

We stood at the back of the room, listening to the last motivational speaker wind things up.

"I have to go," she told me.

She had a flight to catch, and she was out of time.

"So, what are you going to do?" I asked.

She looked lost.

"I don't know," she said, leaving to catch her taxi.

 

The call came about 45 minutes later.

"I've done it, I've gone live, but I've got a problem."

Sitting in that taxi, she decided to launch her membership...

And she did it there and then.

This is what she had to get going:
- Facebook group (about 500 people)
- Zoom account
- iPhone

She'd gone live into her Facebook Group telling her people that she had an idea and would they be interested.

Lucy explained the membership and told them that founding members paid only $29 a month if they signed up now.

When she reached the airport, she had 115 people wanting to join.

By the time she landed in Australia, she'd received $3,335.

 

But here's where it gets interesting...

Three months later, Lucy called me again.

"Andy, this is getting messy. I've got payments everywhere, content all over the place, and I'm drowning in admin."

So we moved everything onto Kajabi.

Now her business runs like clockwork:

  • Members get instant access
  • Content is perfectly organized
  • Payments happen automatically
  • Tech headaches are gone

In her words: "I wish I'd done this from day one."

 

Do you see what happens when you don't get it perfect but just get it going? But also what happens when you build it right?

So what about you?

What's holding you back from starting a thriving online business?
