In this solo episode, Allison pulls back the curtain on a game-changing move she made inside her membership that doubled her retention rate, without creating more content or adding more to her members’ plates.
She’s breaking down the exact missteps, the AI upgrades, and why sometimes the thing you’re avoiding (hello, tech fear!) might just be the key to sustainable growth. If you’re serious about scaling your recurring revenue without more hustle, this episode’s a must-listen.
TAKEAWAYS:
- Retention is more powerful (and profitable!) than constantly chasing new members, especially in a membership model.
- Allison shares how off-boarding surveys revealed a surprising pattern: members weren’t quitting because they didn’t see value, they just didn’t have time to implement.
- Allison's first fix—a group coaching call—flopped. Why? It added more to her members’ schedules instead of solving the core problem.
- Once she taught her custom AI bots her signature strategy, members could create email sequences in 20 minutes instead of hours or days.
- The result? A 100% increase in retention—plus more strategic, data-driven conversations in the group coaching calls that followed.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
