Jake Scott became one of the fastest artists on Grouped to hit 300 paid members—achieving the milestone in under 24 hours.
So how did he do it?
Jake created a compelling reason for fans to join his $9/month paid tier instead of the free one by offering exceptional upfront value. The first 300 fans to sign up were promised two exclusive perks:
-
A mystery merch item—smartly pulled from leftover inventory that wasn’t moving
-
Access to a private livestream concert, just for them
It was a limited-time offer that felt too good to pass up, and fans jumped on it.
The results were impressive. Not only did Jake generate $14,000 in just 6 months, but 88% of those fans stayed subscribed—proving it wasn’t just a gimmick, it was a meaningful connection.
Even after the initial campaign ended, he continued earning over $2,400/month in recurring revenue, which means he’s now on track to make $25,000+ every year—without running another campaign or stepping on stage again.
All from offering real value, activating urgency, and turning 300 signups into a sustainable income stream.
