Again From March 2010
My coaching program on how to launch your own information product online is opening for a new intake of members from March 2010
If you want to work with me to launch your information product online and you have some money to invest in your education, click the link below
It’s been a long time coming, but my latest free report is live and ready to download.
The Membership Site Masterplan is a walk through of all the ingredients necessary to make money with an online membership site, based on the model I used to launch two six-figure membership sites in the last two years.
You can download your complimentary copy from here -
What Is In The Masterplan?
The Masterplan is a content report. By that I mean I wrote it to be a standalone document that provides real value, and is not just a light lead-in report that essentially only promotes a product, and isn’t going to teach you anything helpful.
Of course the reason why I invested so much time to produce this report and give it away for free is because I expect many of you to read it and then decide that you would like to take my membership site coaching program too, but that’s entirely optional.
The Masterplan is a solid guide to my system for launching successful membership sites. In the report I take you through the following process:
- How to find topics for a membership site
- How to develop preeminence, which means people choose to join your membership site over all the other options
- What sources of traffic I use to bring members to my site and build my list
- What technology I use to deliver content (this is so simple, anyone can do it)
- How to make money from a membership site BEFORE you create the content for it
- How to fill your membership site with hundreds of new members in a matter of days by conducting a powerful, yet simple, launch campaign
and much more…

My Simple Formula
The Masterplan shows you exactly how to set yourself up with the right conditions so when you launch a membership site you have a crowd of very hungry people ready to join. It will teach you how you can get started quickly (you can open before you create most of your site content), how much you should charge, how you can conduct a strategic launch, and so much more.
There is one key difference, and I believe this is the real power behind my system, which makes what I do different from most other membership site trainers.
Most people get caught up with the technology they can use to deliver their site. Technology has been the biggest roadblock for me and I expect for you too. Because of this over the past two years I’ve been constantly changing parts of my membership site process to make it as SIMPLE as possible.
I like simple. I’m not looking to get everything perfect or have all the cool features that membership site scripts can offer. I just want to deliver value to as many members as I can get as quickly as I can with as little hassle as possible. Plus I’m focused on setting it up to be an automated system so once it’s created I don’t have to work hard to make good money.
If you’re looking for a program that makes the technology challenge as simple as possible, you want the quickest path to success and you’re committed to finally creating a long term stable business, read this report.

Isn’t It Time You Produced A Product?
One of the biggest mistakes I made with my online business was waiting so long to release a product of mine own.
The next mistake I made was taking so long to realize that a membership site is the best product to sell online.
Learn from my hindsight, commit to releasing a product this year and make it a membership site.
If you’re a blogger, then you are in a particularly good situation since you can use your blog as a launchpad for your membership site. Since you are already familiar with blogging tools like WordPress, which is what I use to store the content of my membership sites, you have another advantage.
You don’t need to have a blog to make this work of course, but if you’re into blogging and you’re going to create your own product, then this is definitely the best product-creation training to take since it’s created by a blogger (that’s me).
Membership Site Mastermind Next Class
I’m opening the doors again to my training program, Membership Site Mastermind, inviting you to participate in an intensive course to get your membership site or information product up and running.
As preparation for the class, please read the Masterplan and leave me your feedback as a reply comment to this post. I’d love to know what you think of the report and I want to see you succeed with your own product this year.

Master plan was great… ideas are flowing still in planning stages and also soc med management launch right now… when I firm up the plan for my blog I be hittn u up.
Thanks!
The report is great, and being on the course is teaching me so much more. My greatest challenge is not the doing of it all, it’s the mindset I am in… I think a lot of it rests on whether people like me/warm to me or not. This is the only area where I think I lack the confidence to make it work.
I am going down the video route for a lot of my marketing and it scares the poop out of me.
Onwards and upwards! You never know unless you try.
Thanks Yaro,
Michelle
Hi Yaro,
Your report is top notch. An amazing product that you are giving away for free as with all your free reports!
The roadblock I am facing is which avenue to head down. I very recently created an incrediable ebook that solves a huge problem that no one has addressed and has potential for a worldwide audience. I was originally going to just promote and sell the ebook (not released yet) but after coming across your site, you have me intrigued on whether to start a membership site with this as premium content or to even start a related blog on the subject and give this content away for free.
Cheers
All I could say is that the masterplan for the membership site is really great, and what else more do you need than to have Yaro guide you through the whole course with all the stones unturned. I’m still new to blogging and I’m definitely going to go into this membership site in the future.
My greatest challenge that I’m currently in right now is my blog is still new, not much visitors or readers, not much traffic and exposure and with that said, not much income at all. So I guess that i’ll need more time to keep my blog growing.
The master plan is a great e-book and thank you very much for taking the time to write it for us. I have had the book for about 24 hours and read the first 17 pages of it. On page 17 ran across the “The Sales Funnel Explained” caught my eye. My background is Marketing and the only kind of work I have ever done. But I love the way you explained it to us.
If I were a newbie and read this it would be an eye opener for me because it is crystal clear what to do in plain and simple English that anyone could understand. I printed it out and started to read at night but had turn off my computer. So, the next morning got up and read the articles about the “The Sales Funnel” and enjoyed ever moment of it. (While having my coffee)
As I’m sure you already know, it’s about how well we explained stuff so the new business owner’s can get the correct information to start with, makes all the difference in building a successful business online.
Having been in Marketing some twenty year plus I knew all this stuff, but enjoy the way you spoke about it in your writing. However, if I had been a credit manager and was working for a big enterprise and lost my job, it would be a blessing to fine this blog.
Good look and keep up the good work.
You asked for my opinion and I feel compelled to honor your request after having the benefit of your free eBook on this subject. It is a very good read; very informative. It is the authoritative/credibility issue that you hammer on so hard about that I would find to be my greatest challenge. It got me kind of down for a bit and you offered no alternative approach so I almost did not read any further. I am currently considering two membership sites though and believe I have the angle to overcome this issue in both. I absolute understand that it would require a lot of give first but that is the name of the game these days!
Hi Yaro,
Thanks for asking for my thoughts on your Masterplan. Here are my answers:
1. What did you think of the Masterplan?
Your Masterplan is informative. I appreciate the insider information you share about what it takes to be successful. When I read your material, it is not full of “overly hyped language” that promises wild success with no work and no investment of time. As a result, you portray an image to me of a credible expert in Internet online ventures.
2. What is your greatest challenge regarding
starting a membership site?
Right now I am working on increasing traffic to my management blog (10 months old now) and establishing an email list.

Hi Yaro,
Thanks for creating the Masterplan and for detailing clearly what is required to set up a successful membership site.
Re my thoughts on your Masterplan.
1. What did you think of the Masterplan?
A great introduction on what will be required to set up and run a successful membership site, so that the reader can have a clear understanding and no misconceptions of the work that they will need to undertake to be successful.
2. What is your greatest challenge regarding starting a membership site?
Quite a few at the moment starting from scratch, but I think gaining preeminance in my chosen field will take the longest. Your masterplan also made me sit back at have another look at my time schedule and realistically I will need to add some more time to my proposed launch date. Better to know now then face setbacks later.
I have joined your Membership Mastermind Course and really look forward to learning from you (recorded anyway) as I like your relaxed non hyped teaching style. You seem like a genuine bloke. Nice to be learning from a fellow Aussie as well!
Thanks again and look forward to speaking with you on the monthly calls.
Kind regards,
Craig

Hey Yaro,
Thanks for the great ebook. Even though I have never been a blogger, nor established a membership site, your report got me all curious. Right now I am literally absorbing every possible input I can get. I will start my blog soon, and the membership site will follow shortly. My first ebook is almost 50% ready and I am also writing my first articles to give myself a little head start. I do however struggle with a couple things, and I hope you can help me:
1) How long after creating my blog should I wait before releasing my membership site? What would be a good amount of readers to start with?
2) English is not my native language. But I would like to write in English to target a larger pool of people. Do you think it’s the right approach?
3) I have a hard time visualizing how you online business structure looks like. In other words, it looks like this blog is your key page, and all the membership sites are build around this one. Am I right? However on becomeablogger.com it looks like the membership site is the main page, and the blog and other sites are build around it. It just seems like it, because to find the blog, I actually have to search a bit on the bottom of the page. Please correct me if I am wrong.
4) For becomeablogger.com, how fast did you get your email list together? I mean once it was launched, did it take a lot of time to get, say the first thousand of readers?
Thanks for all your hard work!

Okay I like the general idea of the ebook, it has given me some advice that was good. and it has definitly thaught me what to write in a free ebook and how to write it with out giving away any really specifik information and only talk in the broades general terms possible while giving the basic step by step layout to accomplish something. Very impressive writing, I have a learned a lot from that.
But still, Its pretty useless for someone like me who’s starting this as a zero budget project. I don’t have any money to spend on adwords, affiliates or on paying some big whigg blogger to name drop me.
You talk about having outsourcing, buying content and buying traffic, that is not an option for me so I’ll have to do this the old school way of building a presence with a blog and make sure i get talked about in the right forums and start to engage the right bloggers which will take time to build up traffic but the quality of the traffic will be better if im to guess since you manage expectations of your site through your previous actions, statements and reputation.
Please correct me if im wrong on this?
i have studied you and your tactics for a while now and think I have a pretty good understanding of what you do and how you do it.
Though I do not agree with you at all on the marketing design of landing pages for a product. If there is only one page with static content and no quick links to the stuff im interested to know I usually leave with in the second.
I don’t give a frakk about the testimonials, the photo copies of checks and the marketing buzzword crud that 99% of these landing sites feed me. If yo are selling a website system for membership sites, I want to know what the features are, the capabilities, what the competitors capabilities are, the pricing, is there a demo and screenshots? Then I might want to know what other customer say, but I’ll google for reviews from people who are not affiliates with a vested interest in selling the product for commissions.
thats my five cents…
Cheers!

I agree with you, Chris. To me, the best “landing page” is right smack dab on the home page of a site that screams value and professionalism, and that has a considerable amount of free content that I can access immediately in order to judge for myself the value of what’s being sold “inside”.
Here’s an example of such a membership site: http://www.bmyers.com
Here’s another: http://www.mindtools.com
Both of these sites have an astonishing amount of free content and leave absolutely no doubt about what you’ll find “inside” when you become a member. Neither one of them has a “landing page”, a “squeeze page”, phony claims or anything like that. And both of them have very reasonable membership prices as well!
Hey Yaro,
Thank you for what you are doing…you’ve given me so much insight and knowledge in all that i’m suppose to know about driving traffic to my business. you are truly God Sent. Ive spent sleepless nights in my research to know and understand how the internet works and am very great-full for your e-book and Gideon: He’s a Genious.
I am however ready to get things started and not yet sure as to whether i should use the latest model of WordPress or the 2.6.3, the one Gideon used in his videos. How much more complicated is it to use?
Yaro,
This a great report, and right now I’m just really getting started on Become A Blogger. I will be working on my blog first and then, when the time is rright I wil most likely take on Membership Mastermind, and build a membership site. Thanks fro the great info. just not the right time for this right now.
Peace and Happiness to You and Everyone, Bruce Schroeder
P.S. How do I post my picture to my comments?
Thanks for your Blog Profits Blueprint. It is great information I start do as like as you said and it makes easy to get traffic.
Thank you very much Yaro for the master plan. This is indeed a great plan. It is a step by step and easy to understand lesson. After reading and listening to the audio, I have come to known that you have the ability to make some one start on the straight line.
What makes me afraid, is that I have my website .wordpress.com. It means it is a small baby in the pouch of an adult. The adult indeed is very helping and honest but still there is a knot between the the visitors and the entertainer. Can this make something wrong or I need to divert.
This is my personal question but I hope you help me with a good answer.
Thanks once again.
Saif
Report is great, but main challenge for is to choose a right niche on which I can base membership sites. Probably I just need to brainstorm this issue and then move on.
Yaro, thank you! How amazing to truly read info from someone that has done it, knows it and also sharing with us all
I have been following you for some time and love everything you put out. I read the whole ebook last night after downloading it. I don’t know why I haven’t done it sooner! I always looked at it as one day….but now you made me understand that its not that hard and yes like everything, takes time but very achievable.
I have looked into it earlier this year, but got discouraged by all the choices out there for platform, plug ins etc…..to much to test and have not had a time for it.
Have you ever looked at http://www.optimizepress.com? Its something that was referred to me for landing pages, sales pages and membership sites. Just curious a I trust your expertise.
I have a list of around 2K+ and then social media followers all combined around 10K, so I see no reason why I could not launch something in 2011
Thanks for all the amazing info you share, the nudge to just go for it and the support you offer.
Have a Merry Xmas and a very productive and prosperous 2011!
This was the first time I received so much information about starting a membership site in such a short period of time from a perfect stranger. I have “so called close friends” who already have several membership sites & they still haven’t told me how to start one. I’m definitely interested in learning more.
Hi Yaro,
I received your download for Membership Mastermind and I have read it. It is a goldmine of information. This will definitely help me after I have mastered blogging and with your help that will be very soon. I am still going through your Blog Profits Blueprint e-book. I am new to blogging so I am looking for information to teach me what to do and how to start. I have found your e-book very informative and concise. There is so much information out there, some free, others you pay for, but I find there is none compare to yours and what makes it even better is the fact that some of it is free. I may not know exactly what my blog is to going be about, the fact that you have provided me with the guidelines is a big deal for me. I am a single mother and I have been looking for means to support my son and myself without a huge start-up cost for me, as well as provided me with traffic to a network marketing business I have joined 2 months ago. Added with the blog I will be starting and my other business online: http://www.lindabless.lgnprosperity.com I will be well on my way to creating a suitable income online, Thanks to you Yaro.
You are one in a million. Definitely on my A-list. Thanks again.
Linda.
Dear Yaro Starak,
I think that you are really doing a very good job. I am a new blogger and with you, I am sure that I will go ahead. You give useful information and advice and all documents sent by you are well written. I do agree to work with you, let’s say with you guiding me. Thank you very much, Yaro, and be sure I am always pleased to hear from you. Good bye.
Hey Yaro,
Big thanks for this fabulous Masterplan. Nice reading and I love the mp3 for listening in my relaxing chair… I’m a big fan of your blog.
Dear Yaro,
I wanted to thank you (and some other people who helped me to start thinking independently) even earlier.
Not longer as yesterday I thought about it: when I will get some good result I’ll thank them for their help – even if they don’t know about me at all.
But really, that should I wait for, no need to wait for results to thank for help.
So, thank you Yaro, for all of that brilliant information which I received in just a few days after subscribing to your website. Every new message from you gives me a hard kick forward. Don’t stop with it, Yaro. I hope, I can’t stop, too.
Thank you again and good luck!
Dear Yaro Starak,
I am new in blogging,just since one month, I was overhelmed by the huge amount of information in the internet, I am really one step to be confused, but When I read your documents Blog Profit Blueprint and the master plan, I said to my self this is just what I need, follow Yaro Stark and you will reach your goal, do not confuse your self with other information, learn from Yaro and make action from what you have learned, you will succeed.
Thank you very much again.
Hi Yaro,
I am keen to sign up for membership site mastermind but it is not available at the moment? When will you start the programme again?
Hi Tay,
MSM won’t be back on the market in it’s current form again. You will be able to get the content sometime in the future, but it will be bundled with something else. Sorry about that, I did a closing down special a few months ago and that was your last chance to join.
Yaro:
I have read many e-books in the past several months on various topics and from what I have read, your e-book, “Blog Profits Blueprint”, is one of the the best. Certainly, as a FREE e-book yours is second to none! You have written in great detail what others charge for. You really know how to create value for your readers and members to your club.
The most difficult thing I am experiencing at present as a member of your Blog mastermind club is putting together the SEO as described in lessons 3 & 4. Some of it is too difficult and needs the help of more experience. I plan to go to the forum and discuss this as you suggested.
I am also having some difficulty understanding the ideas you discussed in chapter 3 of “Optimizing Your Blog Internal Structure”. The discussion about “Links” is confusing to me. Everything seems to be connected to something else. This is quite a process. Thanks.
Thanks Yaro for wonderful strategies. I am in the beginning process, but your blog has given me a solid foundation and excellent principles to begin building my business.
In case you have not downloaded your copy, DO IT NOW! It will change your life!
your ebook is great, it gives great principles
thank you!
Iam really interested to sign up for the membership in short time. At present I donot have either a product to sell or a website. But really interested to join your trainning
HI Yaro,
I am interested to sign up. Pls tell me what should I do?
Thanks
