"Your video demos and related explanations of how to
use aMember are very helpful; even for a shoe-string startup like mine, the
show-how value is well worth the modest fee."

"It's taken just 5 days to get
a fully functioning membership site launched and people paying for it!"
"For months I've wanted to launch a membership site but just couldn't
justify the cost of Membergate for a 'test. I hunted high and low for
another solution and finally found your site. It's taken just 5 days to get
a fully functioning membership site launched and people paying for it! And I
had absolutely no freakin' idea how to do it before I found your site.
If you're looking to launch a membership site quickly and with very little
stress and you can't justify the high fees of other solutions, I couldn't
recommend anything more than MembershipAcademy. It's one of those very rare
resources that delivers on its promises. Great stuff, keep it up and thank
you!!"

"An incredible resource to me as I developed our new membership site"
The Membership Academy has been an incredible resource to me as I developed our new membership site. Because there are so many different moving parts involved in putting something like this together, it's great to have an expert and community there to guide you and help you. Typically, if you work with a software company, you will get support from that software company. Membership sites are different in that you are integrating many different software packages together in a specific way, and much of it is open source. So there really isn't a one stop shop for support other than The Membership Academy. Once you really get into the process, you will realize how important it is to have that support and knowledge from people that are also specifically working on these same integration issues. The training videos, articles, hacks and forums that the Membership Academy provides is of great benefit, not to mention David's excellent customer service. Thanks for being there Membership Academy.

Dear Future Membership Site Owner,
My name is David Moskowitz, the owner of Membership Academy.
Starting up a membership site is no easy task, believe me I know. Finding the right software, learning how to get and keep subscribers, in addition to creating content, well, it's enough to make you want to pull your hair out!
But there is an easier way...
Let me give you a little background on my experience with building a membership site.
About two years ago, a friend and I decided to start up a membership site teaching Japanese students how to speak English. I had experience setting up and operating a small internet based mail order business here in Japan, and my friend is an experienced teacher, who had developed a unique method for learning English.
My friend took on the role of content creation, and I was in charge of building the site and creating the marketing materials.
Finding the best software was no easy task, it took weeks to find the right system for my needs and design the site. Also, although I had been studying marketing and copywriting for my mail order business, I needed to adapt it into a membership business model. All in all, it took about 4 months for me to get the membership site online, with all the different features we needed.
Once in place, the system works like a charm.
Living in Japan, I have a unique opportunity to be exposed to different ideas and beliefs.
A friend of mine is a Buddhist, and when I asked her to explain the basic concept of Buddhism she said:
"When you light the path for another person, you also light the path for yourself".
One convenient location, handpicked information!
I'd like to share with you all the things I've learned in setting up a Membership site.
By placing all this information in one convenient location, handpicking the information that I know works, I can help light the way for you.
But, I do have a confession to make... As you can see on this page, my grammar is far from perfect. If you are looking for Pulitzer prize winning writing, and
Hollywood award winning production on the videos, I apologize in advance. What I do provide for you is concise, high value content. The videos and articles may not pass a college professors examination, but if what interests you is
the content, in getting the information you need to succeed, then this site is for you.
Do you want to skip past the learning curve?
You can avoid the headaches and frustration of searching the internet for hours, paying too much for software you don't really need and information that has no real value. Take the shortcut to getting you membership site up and running, and putting money in your bank account as fast as possible.
Listen to what Premium Member Daniel Boehlke has to say:
"I easily saved $2000 dollars by joining this site"
"I easily saved $2000 dollars by joining this site before
buying a new membership software system. Not to mention the countless
hours I had spent researching on my own!
I only wish I had found Membership Academy sooner."

"More done in the last week than in 3 months of working with the others"
"I must tell you. I joined a membership program that was supposed to
give me everything I needed to set up a membership site. It cost
thousands of dollars. Your website has given me WAY more and your
response has been fantastic! I ended up returning the other package and
will stay with you.
I have gotten more done in the last week I have been
a member with you than in 3 months of working with the others."

"My wife has already started receiving her first subscribers."
"I stumbled upon Membership Academy after searching for specific Joomla (a content management system that makes adding content very simple ) and aMember (an inexpensive membership management software system) help.
I was a little skeptical about joining at first, but I took the plunge and figured I could always get a refund.
It only took a short time for me to discover the benefits of being a member. I'm a relative newbie to setting up membership sites.
I was able to put the finishing touches on my wife's site quickly with the help of the forums, video tutorials, and
I even got David's assistance with custom aMember pages. My wife has already started receiving her first subscribers. Thank you!"
If you learn only one technique that adds just one new member a month...
Consider the fact that if just one of the techniques you learn on this site is able to increase your membership by only 1 or 2 members a month, you are well ahead of the cost of a Premium membership.
But don't take my word for it, read what Premium Member Cliff Harvey has to say about Membership Academy:
"The PDF for the video '14 Steps To Profiting From Your Own Membership Site' alone is worth the price of membership!
I've printed the PDF for constant future reference.
First rate job David."

My Personal 100% Money Back Guarantee
Well, I'm willing to put my money were my mouth is.
If you're not happy with the contents in the current month, simply cancel your membership, send me an email, and I will promptly refund your membership fee for the month.
If you want to save money and take a yearly subscription, you have a full 30 days 100% money back guarantee from the time you sign up.
Plus, you can keep all the bonuses!
You can't possibly ask for a better deal than that.
Here's who should not become a member of this site:
You believe that you can buy an eBook, go to sleep and wake up a millionaire.
You play the lottery not for it's entertainment value, but because you have a system for winning.
You are not willing to take a little time and invest a little money now, to save or make you multiples later.
You are not willing to share what you learn with other members of the site.
You are going to promote something illegal.
Because this site contains a forum, I am very selective about the types of members that I want to let in.
I also want to make sure that our members are serious about succeeding with a membership site. You must be willing to learn and share with other members.
But, if you are serious about starting up and profiting from your own membership site you owe it to yourself to sign up right now. Every day you think about it, but don't start is another day
you are not getting new subscribers to your site. In essence you are handing your members over to your competitors.
So sign up right now and get instant access to the information you need to start up and run a successful membership site.
Thank you once again, and good luck with your membership site!

P.S. Building a successful membership site can be a difficult job. Just ask anyone who's tried. To make it on your own requires incredible patients, persistence, focus, resilience, adaptability,
and skill. Can it be done? Absolutely! But why take the long road when you can take a safe and secure shortcut? That's what Membership Academy offers you, a shortcut to your success.
P.P.S.. If you are honestly interested in starting up and running a successful membership site, I urge you to move fast. A "guru" told me that I should be charging at least $97 for the first months subscription
because it's so valuable. That's a good idea so... maybe sometime soon. Your best bet is to take advantage of the current low priced subscription and get started today!
P.P.P.S. You have a choice, you can continue searching the internet, wasting hours, or even days thinking about starting a site, or you can get the information you need right now.
And remember my money back guarantee. If you're not happy with what you get in the curent month, I'll give you your money back for the month! What could be fairer than that?
