ON THIS EDITION OF INDIESLIVE - GROUND REPORTS: 

Building a Patreon-Style Membership From Scratch Using Memberspace

It can be tempting to go all in on a ready-made product when you're building up your tech stack. From website builders to email autoresponders, there are too many tech apps that seem like an easy and useful option yet charge too much and rest too much control from your artist career.

Should you decide to build a subscription-based membership site for your artist brand, it will be extremely tempting to opt for Patreon where it can be rigged up in a cinch.

The downside? Revenue share, no design customizability, no pixeling, and no email autoresponder integrations.

One way to get around this is by using our IndieDEAL partner Memberspace. You can use it to build your own Patreon-style membership hosted on your own URL for any website builder you're using.

In this ground report, IndieFounder head Coach and IndieX specialist Jesse Gillenwalters will walk you through how he built his membership offering using Memberspace in just 8 hours including all of the ideation.
