The professional iGrOOp is unlike any other social network, web 2.0, paid membership/subscription site available today. iGrOOps is in a class of its own by providing group administrators with state of the art web 2.0 software combined with the ability to allow both free and/or paid members into their group.

The professional iGrOOp can be subsidized by charging members a membership fee, corporate sponsored, running ads, PayPal donations, and more.

Is the Professional Option Right for You?

Here is a quick checklist to determine if the professional iGrOOp is right for your needs. If you answer yes to any of the below questions, the professional iGrOOp is right for you.

Is this for a business, for-profit, or commercial use?
Would you like to incorporate an affiliate program?
Would you like to use autoresponders/scheduled messages?\
Would you like to integrate an E-commerce system where you can sell onetime and recurring products/services?
Would you like to use your own domain?
Is it important for you to create a professional ad free environment for your members?
Would you like to incorporate a newsletter mail and manage feature to build and market to a list of prospects?
Would you like to make money with Google® AdSense™ on your site?
Would you like to run your own ads in your iGrOOp?
Would you like to use Google Analytics?
Would you like to use a different icon package?
Do you foresee having more than 100 members?
Would you like to charge your members a subscription fee to your iGrOOp?

Considering charging your members for membership? Make sure you give them a reason to pay for membership. Membership sites are a huge business an many people are making millions of dollars running successful membership sites, but they provide a higher level of content and communication not found in free groups.

Professional iGrOOps Pricing

It is a low risk, high reward business model for anyone wanted to start an iGrOOp. The pro iGrOOp pricing includes your first 100 members, meaning you do not pay any additional costs for those members.

Start Up / One Time Costs:	$99
Cost Per Month (includes 100 memberships)	$29
Cost Per Additional Membership (member #101+) Per Month*	.25
Optional Affiliate Program Module (cost per month)	$10
Optional Smart Autoresponder Module (cost per month)	$20
Optional E-commerce System Module	$20

*This price is fixed up to 2500 members. For more members, contact us for discount. Dedicated server option includes unlimited members at fixed fees.

So for example, for $29 per month, you can have an iGrOOp with 100 members. You can charge those members yearly or monthly membership fees that you set. If you increase your membership to say 200 members, you will be charged the $29 base fee, plus an additional $25 per month for the extra 100 members. If you are charging your members, you can see the great potential for profit:

#Members	Your Membership Fees	Your Costs	Your Profit
25	$29 per YEAR	$348 per YEAR	$377 per YEAR
100	$19 per MONTH	$348 per YEAR	$22,458 per YEAR
500	no charge to members	$129 per MONTH	no profit
500	$25 per MONTH	$129 per MONTH	$12,371 per MONTH

It is easy to see how the professional iGrOOp can be a very affordable solution to organizations who give free memberships to their members, or how the professional iGrOOp can be the foundation for an extremely lucrative business!
