Estimate your MRR
Set sensible expectations — defaults are conservative
▾ How we calculate
Base MRR = Audience × (Conversion% ÷ 100) × Price.
We show three bands: Conservative (×0.6), Likely (×1.0), and Stretch (×1.4).

Projection is illustrative only and intentionally conservative. Actual results vary by audience quality, offer strength, and retention (churn).
Tip: many first-time communities see 0.3–1.0% conversion on warm audiences with a clear value proposition.

A note from us
We keep it small so it stays sharp.
Four builds a month isn’t a marketing line — it’s a constraint. It keeps us close to the work, fast on decisions, and obsessed with outcomes over meetings.

FAQs
Why async‑first?
- Faster momentum: 48‑hour plan without scheduling delays.
- Clarity over calls: written intake + Loom walkthroughs = shareable decisions.
- Timezone‑friendly: no calendar ping‑pong; we work while you sleep.
- Premium focus: protects deep work so your build ships on time.
- Documented & scalable: every step lives in your docs, not someone’s memory.
- Optional call: prefer live? Request a 25‑minute fit check anytime.
Is this invite‑only?
Yes. We cap builds at 4 per month to preserve quality and pace. If we’re full, you can take a slot in next month’s cohort.
How fast is the launch?
14 days. Blueprint (1–3), Build (4–8), Launch (9–11), Live (12–14), then an optimization pass.
What do you need from me?
Your goals, branding, and about 90 minutes of your time across the sprint. We default to async for speed; if you prefer a quick chat, reply to our confirmation with CALL and we’ll offer a 25‑minute fit check. We’ll often include a 2–5 min Loom (screen + camera) so you can review async — no scheduling needed.
Who owns payments & data?
You do — always. Everything runs under your accounts. You retain member data, revenue, and access.
What’s included in the Ops Retainer?
Ongoing operations: member support, moderation, event scheduling, prompts/challenges, light automations, and monthly reporting.
Still have a question? Email support@memberforge.co and we’ll reply within 24 hours.
