      The type of therapy i do is conversation. People who feel shy/ashamed/scared to talk to friends or family and keep it inside of them, thats where my practice comes in where we chat online about their secrets and anything theyd like to talk about. I wanted to created a 4 tier membership level bronze, silver, gold and black but need some benefits that would entice clients to opt in for the monthly membership service

    I would pick one audience and study them where they hang out online for a while. Find out what they care about, what they struggle with, etc. Only then can you develop a product that will really solve their problems.

    yep do a video courses or video coaching, it`s very simple, you take your subject and create 6 "chapters" then you create your courses for each chapter that become a 6 weeks online coaching course...

    Are there any websites currently online with the same idea? If so, any ideas on what they are offering?

    you say you are qualified, but are you certified. Do you have a PHD or did you get your qualification online.

    Personally, and I can not speak for anyone except myself, if I thought I needed therapy an internet membership site would be the last place I look.

      Im qualified with a PHD.

      The membership area will be for long term clients who would want extra benefits whilst being my clients. The benefits will be discounts, online courses etc etc.

      Fair enough a membership site would be the last place you look. Each to their own.

      Im just trying to build a new concept.

    Sajali,

    Do you realize what you're asking?

    Supposedly, you're the expert, the therapist, and you're asking random people on a public forum what you should offer your clients on a monthly basis to help them?

    I suggest you look into your therapy skills to find your answer - it's not going to come from people who know marketing but nothing about actual therapy.

    Would you ever seek help from an expert that relies on strangers for his paid products?

      Im just asking for suggestions to bring in new products to my business. I offer 1 on 1 therapy in person. This is the first time ill be bringing this business online and want to maximise my profits, this is a help forum with established business men/woman i would be silly not to ask for any advice or help on here expecially on the internet marketing / email marketing side.

      Everyone wants to maximise there profits however they can on their online business just like me.

      Thanks for your input.

      Cheers

        Okay, your current offering is 1:1 in person therapy.

        Can you take the same concept online? Maybe use something like Skype or Google Hangouts to extend your reach?

        From there, would an anonymous group session be beneficial? Maybe an online support group, like a private forum or chat area?

        I don't know what type of therapy you practice in, or what problems you help people deal with, but it seems to me that the AA model of having meetings where people with similar problems can share their challenges, their triumphs and their concerns and questions in a group setting might be something people would pay for.
