Question Title

* 5. I'm considering creating a "premium" option for Aliventures that would be designed to help you get the most out of the Aliventures blog.

For premium members, each of my blog posts (4 - 5 posts per month) would have an accompanying worksheet (with a quick summary, and guided action to take). You'd also get a monthly reminder email in case you missed a post or a worksheet.

Is this something you'd be interested in? It would cost around $4/month and you could leave/rejoin at any time.

Premium members would also get discounts on my other products/courses.

No, I wouldn't be interested

Yes, that sounds like something I'd find helpful

Yes, I'd like this but I'd also like there to be an interactive element (e.g. a Facebook support group)
