Annual Membership Commitment
As I progressed through the courses in WA, one theme kept getting my attention -- upgrade to annual membership.
The reasons were so "in my face" I decided to commit.
But before that taking this step, there was 'self-talk' to contend with.
First, I kept telling myself that monthly was better for my budgeting efforts.
Then I kept hearing, "Save money every month by subscribing annually.
So here I am, saying saving money is something I'm looking at, and yet, I'm not taking steps to save money (Gees).
PLUS, I get superior web hosting, an amazing keyword tool, and themes that cost significant money elsewhere as part of the package which equals, MORE money saved.
Then the C word kept coming up -- Commitment and Consistency.
This is a business. Every day I tell people businesses take time. You commit, you work consistently, and good things happen -- over time.
There was a time in my life when I was an advertising/fashion photographer in Chicago. As I was learning the ropes, I was fortunate enough to study with a true advertising photography master, Rob Gage.
Rob always said he became an overnight sensation in the world of advertising photography 20 years later.
Businesses of any type take 2 things; commitment and consistency
Once again, I got my butt off the fence and made a COMMITMENT to my success. I made a commitment to remain consistent, set goals, and build this business step-by-step, consistently over time.
Finally, the training, community and support are amazing.
I have people, i have resources, I have a community of like-minded people to engage with. Questions get answered, support is a message away, new friends are everywhere.
Annual made sense so I took the plunge.
How many of you out there made the "annual" commitment too? It makes sense and feels great once you talk plunge and dive in.

I made the annual commitment. I think it's the only way to go if not just for the savings alone.
I did the six-month deal and that gets me to Black Friday, then $299/yr for rest of my life. Commitment!

Like you Bill, I have the annual commitment. I try to remain consistent so as to keep my content fresh.
