Change one thing at a time

If you change your price, your posting days and your tiers all in the same week, you won’t know which one helped. Pick one change, give it about a month, then look at what happened.

Know where to look

  • New followers and new paid members each month, side by side on your dashboard.
  • Where your supporters came from: ByUs, your own links, or search. Do more of what’s working.
  • Views on each post, in your Posts list. Public posts with lots of views but few new members may need a clearer “here’s what members get.”
  • Your Growth checkup on the dashboard, which looks at your page and suggests your next steps.

Experiments worth trying

  • Add a free trial to your main tier for a month.
  • Add a small, limited-spots tier with something personal.
  • Try a new posting day or time.
  • Run a poll asking members what they want more of.
  • Turn on a second way to earn: a download, a bundle, paid messages or video calls.

Ask your members

Your members are the best source of ideas. A poll or a quick message asking “what should I make next?” tells you what they value, and people stay longer when they help shape the work.

Then go around again

Growth is a loop: try something, look at the numbers, keep what works. Come back to the guides whenever you’re stuck. If something on ByUs is getting in your way, tell us at support@byusapp.com.

That’s the whole path.

Your Growth checkup on the dashboard keeps suggesting next steps as your page changes. Come back to any guide whenever you’re stuck.
