I’m actually in the middle of creating two membership sites at once. Literally – I have, like, 789 zillion windows open at the bottom of my laptop. It’s a personal record.

Even though I’m ridiculously busy (keep that coffee coming!), I HAD to take a break and let visitors on a few of my sites know about this brilliant system. I have created membership sites for other people in the past.

In fact, I once got sucked into creating one for a client and it nearly resulted in my loss of sanity. I had my atlas out, researching which would be the highest local cliff to jump from when he suddenly decided to go in a different direction. Saved!

That was back in the days when membership sites were created by sadists. Today, thanks be to God above, there is a simple and beautiful way to create membership sites. All you need is WishList Member.  It’s actually an ingenius, elaborate plugin that you use along with Wordpress.

Unlike the membership nightmares of the past, WishList Member includes a wonderful collection of step-by-step videos along with Quick Start Guides that lay it all out for you.  They practically take you by the hand and show you what to do and where to do it.  They show you how to use their software and even give you great tips along the  way – letting you know how you can optimize the features.

Why Create a Membership Site?

So what are the benefits of having a membership site?

• Money, honey! One of the most obvious benefits of a membership site is the fact that you can make money.  Why keep giving your valuable information away for free if you can attach a price tag to it?
• Exclusiveness. Literally every day I come across sites that are scraping posts and content from my sites and sites of people I work with.  Even when they’re cool enough to give a link back, it’s still bothersome when something  YOU write for YOUR visitors and YOUR site ends up on someone else’s site.   A membership site takes care of cyber pirates. Sorry, mate.
• Create a Community. If you sell products or services, creating a membership site will establish a community of individuals who are actually interested in what you have to offer.  You’ll weed out the spammers, casual surfers, and link droppers.  You’ll draw legitimately interested and invested readers and potential clients.  You don’t even have to charge for your membership site – it could be a free service for clients that you already have.  A membership site could also be used by savvy business owners as a way of putting helpful, motivating content in front of their employees.

If a little extra money sounds sweet to you, click through and learn more. As for me, I’m back to work…

I love accents that are blatantly cocky and full of themselves. The lamps, clocks, posters, and desk accessories that try to upstage even the slickest desk and most overpriced chair. The gorgeous Kosmic Round Designer Table Clock Desk Clock is a perfect example. While it certainly costs less than office furniture (unless you snag a chair at Big’s or Goodwill), it stands out with its classy good looks and steals every other piece’s thunder. The elegant beauty is 18 inch in diameter x 24 inch in height. The face of the working clock is 6 inches and is attached to a solid resin base. Click the link or the image for a closer look and grab your own scene stealer while the price is less than $45.

Clint Eastwood Wall Mural

I love myself some Clint Eastwood. I have ever since I walked through the living room as a pre-teen and my dad had on a western. After one look at the television, I plopped sideways in my favorite chair and watched every single second. I was hooked on the eyes, the hair, the swagger, the voice the drama… yeah, that’s it, I was hooked on the drama.

So much so that watching westerns with my dad became a favorite thing for me to do. The thing is, daddy thought it was all westerns I that I loved, so he’d call out, “Joi! Grab you a Dr. Pepper and get ready… this is a good one.” To dad, every western was a good one. I never let him in on the secret that westerns with Clint Eastwood in them were the good ones – I simply watched each and every one he ever had on. We had a lot of great Sunday afternoons, with or without Mr. Eastwood.

The dramatic and gorgeous Wall mural above is just the thing to let everyone around you know that…

1. You’re in charge.
2. They’re being watched.

I’m thinking of getting one for my kitchen.

We Kentuckians have four seasons just like everyone else:

1. College Basketball Season
2. Post-College Basketball Season
3. Catch Your Breath Season (lasts an average of 3-1/2 days)
4. Pre-College Basketball Season

So, yeah, college basketball is pretty much always on our mind.  During the first season of the year (#1 if you were paying attention), our stores and malls are covered with blue-clad fanatics.  Every now and then there’ll be a University of Louisville fan.  Brave, brave souls.  They look like little cherry lifesavers in a blue ocean.

The fantastic FanMats University of Kentucky Basketball Mat F0005162 at the top is precisely what your office needs. It’s from Unbeatable Sale and it should be the next thing you buy.

There are, I assume other college basketball teams available – I suppose you could click through and see. I’m not sure why you’d want to support a Non-Callipari led team, but whatevs.

If the husband is going to keep listening to these business-y smisnessy podcasts and videos online, he’s going to have to take his show on the road. Doesn’t he know that in the evening I have urgent matters to tend to online and find his seo, social marketing, podcasting mumbo jumbo distracting.

How can I concentrate on Oprah’s tweets with all that in my ear?   Come on, there’s something decidedly un-American about interfering with Lady O.

I figure he could set up a killer workstation in our bedroom. I’ve already picked out his corner and, as you can see, I’ve found him a new desk.

It’s the TechniMobili® Retractable Compact Computer Desk and it’s from my much beloved Staples. The rotating work table has locking wheels to provide extra space when you need it. He loves gadget-y things, so I think I can sell him on this. What do ya think?

Features:
* Graphite finish
* Features rotating worktable which slides out to form L-desk and pullout keyboard tray with safety stop on main desk
* Open: 36″H x 79″W x 25″D
Closed: 36″H x 48″W x 25″D
* Main Desk: 36″ x 48″W x 25″D
* Side Desk: 31″H x 42″W x 23″D
* Bottom shelf for CPU and accessories
* Powder-coated steel frame
* Ready to assemble
* 5-year mfr. limited warranty

That was easy.  Yes, I still like that joke.
