Our client, a digital product creator with a thriving email list of 30,000 subscribers, was ready to evolve her business. With an average customer lifetime value (CLV) of $56 and a business model built on one-off purchases, she saw a clear opportunity: create a recurring membership product that would stretch her customer lifespan and boost her CLV.
But here’s the catch, she wanted to make it happen without the stress of social media or the cost of paid ads. Her vision? A membership that nurtures deeper connections with her audience and provides a steady, aligned revenue stream.
Primary Goal: Launch a membership using only her email list to increase CLV, stabilize her income, and provide long-term value to her community.
the solutions
The soft launch gave us proof of concept and quick wins—35 members joined from a short, intentional email sequence, generating immediate recurring revenue and valuable insights to refine the offer.
From there, the full launch scaled momentum with 62 additional members, bringing the total to 95. This phase leaned on social proof, transformation stories, and thoughtful urgency to guide subscribers into the membership without pressure or overwhelm.
Once validated, we transitioned the offer into an evergreen model, creating steady daily growth of 3–5 new members without ads or social media stress. With this system in place, her customer lifetime value has tripled from $56 to $168+, retention has extended beyond industry averages, and her email list continues to thrive with mid-40% open rates and high engagement.
