The Wit & Wire Podcast Melissa Guller

Which digital product is right for your business right now: an online course or a membership?
Both have the potential to multiply your revenue as a creator or entrepreneur. And since I don’t believe that business is one-size-fits-all, I’m excited to share the opportunities and challenges for membership sites vs. online courses to help you decide which one is right for you right now.
Today's guest is Manu Muraro (Your Social Team). Manu helps ethical brands with a sense of humor grow engagement in sales on Instagram and not worry too much about every single piece of advice they're getting. She's sold both courses and memberships and currently runs a seven-figure membership, so she's here to help weigh the pros and cons of each strategy.
