MenuWhere can I look to find Memberium/Infusionsoft/Wordpress specialists other than the partners listed on the Memberium site?
We are looking for someone who can help us re-design our website and also our membership site. We need someone who is an expert in Wordpress but also familiar with Memberium/Infusionsoft. I know there are partners listed on the Memberium website, but I want to know where else I can look to find other qualified candidates.

Sorry that I don't have a specific answer to your question but I have extensive WP membership experience and work with with Memberium/IS with two clients. If you're interested in chatting you can schedule a call to discuss your needs.


Hello, I know WordPress and Memberium, but if you want someone local, you can always go to your local WordCamp or WordPress meetup. The WordCamps are listed at WordCamp.org and there is usually one in every major city. You can message me with more of the details that you would like on your WordPress site and we can do a call for you to show me what you want completed on your website.

Here's what you require knowing about using Confusionsoft, er, I mean Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft barely works.
If you think you must use Infusionsoft, you should avoid making Infusionsoft API calls as part of your funnel (sales, conversions, money flow, etc).
Infusionsoft APIs should only be called after all funnel steps are complete + they should only be called in an async manner, in other words, you should never wait for or expect any Infusionsoft API call to ever work.
This means you just store all your data locally + have a background process that repeatedly jams your data into Infusionsoft until a successful status code is returned.
Then delete the queued data you're trying to jam into Infusionsoft from your processing queue.
All except one of my many hosting clients has abandoned Infusionsoft because it fails so consistently.


The WordPress space is expansive and full of people with cross-skills. My advice would be to go to WordPress-specific outlets, and then ask specifically for Memberium/Infusionsoft.
WordPress specific outlets may be online or digital, for example:
DIGITAL -
You'll be bombarded with potential freelancers if you post in any of these Facebook groups.
Advanced WordPress: https://www.facebook.com/groups/advancedwp/?ref=br_rs
Intermediate WordPress: https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntermediateWordPress/?ref=br_rs
WordPress Help & Share: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wphelpandshare/
Next, outsourcer websites are not bad at all. I've had nothing but amazing experiences with Codeable.io, and they have hundreds of experts available so if you post your WordPress + Memberium + InfusionSoft request, there's a high chance a highly qualified outsourcer will be able to help. This is not a paid endorsement, I sincerely love and use their service.
IN-PERSON
WordCamps & WordPress meetups are also a great place to go. You can check https://central.wordcamp.org/ to see what's going on near you. Most WordCamps will have an "are you hiring?" board where you can write your request and people will contact you. Likewise, most meet-ups have a designated time at the beginning and end for potential employers and service providers to connect.
Your networks!
Seriously, we've had tons of luck recruiting extremely qualified WordPress professionals that had non-WordPress skills by simply using our own networks to crowdsource our need. For example, we hired one of our developers because he responded to a Twitter blast of ours. Since WordPress is such an expansive network, chances are that you know someone, or know someone who know someone, with the skills that you need.
Best of luck! Supplementary helpful information may be this article I wrote on how to screen your web development professional: https://calderaforms.com/2017/12/choose-right-professional-website-project/. Summary: ask for a portfolio, find someone in your niche and mind their business skills as well as their technology skills.
Hope this helps!

What is the best Wordpress theme to use to showcase many events happening, globally by country, category, city and date?
You could probably use any Wordpress theme that had a design and feel you like. I would use a good events plugin such as Calendarize It. That plugin makes it easy to set up a nice calendar of events. You can make specific calendars for each country, category and city. They could view them all on one calendar or filter down to specific locations. You could even enter the venue information for the events as well. It's a pretty decent plugin. You can see an example of it working here: http://tvqma.org/schedule

Can You Setup Lead Tracking In Infusionsoft For Me?
Infusionsoft's built in lead tracking works well ONLY if the website passing the traffic to your optin page allows that data to be passed. If that is not the case, the only way to do it is with separate web forms...and then in the sequence after each web form, you can apply a tag to specify which form was the source of the lead. Hope that helps :)

What steps should I take to start a successful membership site? Thinking of using a combination of Infusionsoft + AccessAlly.
I wish I could give you the perfect answer-- we are using Infusionsoft + CustomerHub, which is NOT the best solution given they don't have a forum feature-- we have had to tack on "Tender" which is built as a support ticket/help desk engine and we've had to modify it quite a bit. I think it's ridiculous that CustomerHub doesn't have a forum given they are a membership site platform--!? Anyway, I can speak to Infusionsoft-- yes, it is expensive and yes, it is complex, but I am happy with their ability to handle VOLUME and their ability to customize and refine to infinite possibilities. There is a lot of power in that and it's built for growth and seems very sustainable. I have had a membership site for 9 years, and believe me, you don't want to move your entire platform when it becomes obsolete-- that is a huge job. You do need some assistance setting it up, but after that you can maintain on your own. I also love the way I can run multiple businesses/income streams all through one Infusionsoft account. That is valuable too. Hope this helps.

How do I raise my prices without losing customers?
Here's three tips: 1. Increase the value you provide more than the price. If you want to lift prices by 10%, give 20% more value. 2. Rename you products. This will remove the association with the legacy pricing. 3. Craft an awesome pricing communications strategy. I've had clients that have done both 1 & 2 above, then finished the communication to customers about those changes with the line "we understand if you need to go elsewhere" and they have never lost clients. Good luck!
