Make it easy for your fans to find and join your community by putting your link in all the right spots.
Launching your membership is a huge milestone! But if your fans don’t know where to find it, all that excitement can fizzle out. The easier it is for people to spot your membership link, the more likely they are to join. Whether you’re offering exclusive content, early access, or just bringing your community closer together, here’s how to make sure your membership link is everywhere it needs to be.
1. Add Your Membership Page to Your Store’s Main Menu
Placing your membership page in your store’s main menu makes it visible on every page. This means that no matter where your fans are browsing, they’ll have a direct path to join your community.
Just grab the URL of your Membership page from the Single app, head to your store’s backend, and add a link titled “Community” or “Join [Your Membership Name]” to your main menu. You can also link from other spots on your site, like the footer, a homepage shout-out, or even a pinned banner notice.
2. Feature the Link in Your Social Media Bios
Your social media bios are prime real estate for important links. They’re the first thing people see when they check out your profile, so make sure your membership link is front and center.
Consider using a tool like Linktree or Beacons to organize all your important links, including your membership. If you post about your community, pin that post to your profile and encourage followers to check the link in your bio.
3. Promote Your Membership in Emails and Texts
Your email newsletters and text lists are your direct lines to your most engaged fans. Use these channels to regularly shout out your membership, and think about adding the link to your email signature, newsletter footer, or even as a friendly PS message to keep it on their radar.
4. Add a QR Code for IRL Activations
If you’re hitting the road for a tour, take advantage of the moment. Mention your membership during shows and create a QR code that links directly to your membership page.
Use a site like QR Code Generator to whip up a QR code. Display it on your Spotify canvas or as a backdrop behind you while you’re performing to grab fans’ attention.
Time to Spread the Word!
Getting eyes on your membership page is key to growing your community. Plaster that link across your store, socials, emails, and live gigs, and watch your community explode. So don't be shy - promote your membership and make sure it’s visible everywhere your fans interact with you!
