_*“Our job is to connect to people, to interact with them in a way that leaves them better than we found them, more able to get where they’d like to go” ~ Seth Godin*_ From Netflix to Spotify, over the past few years subscription and membership models have become a powerful and profitable business model in the digital economy. *Why? Because Members are more engaged, more connected and more profitable.*  Concurrently, from corner coffee shops to rural enclaves to the internet, folks are doing whatever it takes to build community. *Why? Because they crave connection with like-minded folks over like-minded topics.* Our guest this week is *Debbie Phillips*, the inspiring founder of *Women on Fire®* and a pioneer in the field of executive and life coaching. For years Debbie has employed the paid membership business model for her platform and believes *when you create the space for membership, you create a way to bring together community in a more sustained way for your business.* When you join forces with your customers, membership has its rewards―for your customer, your company, and your continued success. *Are you ready to learn more about the Membership Economy?* Then please click *YES* on the event invite and join us LIVE on *Tuesday July 14th* at *1pm Eastern* for an engaging conversation!
