Hi ladies!

Most of you probably already read the updated membership info I posted last month on the forum, but I wanted to follow up.  Here is the post I wrote on the forum a month ago tomm.

Hi everyone.
Right now we have 78 members and while Jennifer and I watch very closely, it is difficult to make sure that everyone is participating.

I have been a member of a lot of forums that just dropped off because of lack of participation, etc… and this forum is growing quickly & I want it to stay hopping so that we can all learn from one another.

As you probably know this is the largest PMDD blog and forum with this sort of info around on the Web, it’s just incredible all of the info we can all bring to the table and offer each other.

With that said, most of you know I put more hours into keeping this blog, forum and emails, updates, etc… than a full time job. I have the e-book that does well and I am working on a book and Jenn and I are working on getting a non-profit started- WOW, so much, LOL. I’m working more than a full time job most definitely and want to be able to continue doing so without going to work outside the home and taking away from this.

I believe that we are making incredible strides with regards to getting society to listen to us, take us seriously, and I want to continue these efforts.

I have decided that the forum is now going to be a paid membership site that will be thru Paypal, paypal allows you to be on a continuous billing cycle so you won’t have to keep up with it month by month. I have chosen a very small price so that it is affordable for everyone that is really interested in being a part of this PMDD Network. It’s only $4.95/month. Not only will this keep lurkers out, but it will encourage more participation.

This allows Women to truly open up and discuss those embarrassing times of PMDD, difficult times of PMDD and just down right frustrating times of PMDD, openly without feeling as though just anyone can come to the site.

I believe this is an incredible price for everything that this blog and forum offer. In addition to the forum you also still have access to private emails and phone calls to me when you feel as though you need more, as always I am available.

If you have a situation where this $4.95 is just impossible, please contact me at redefininglifewpmdd@gmail.com so that we may discuss it privately.
My goal of course is to not lose any members, you are all very important to me and to this site. I take PMDD very seriously and as always this is as close to my heart as anything can be.

I hope we can work together to continue making this PMDD Network more incredible and hopefully once the non-profit comes into play we can start getting some grants to take over some of these costs too.

That is Jennifer and my next steps.

Sincerely,
Stef Prose

I will let you know when the paypal button is set up. The rules of stopping payment, etc… will also be posted once it’s all set up too. Most likely around Aug. 15th.

My updated posting to the forum is this today, a month later, I did give more time.

***UPDATE*** 9/3/09

The paypal button for our forum subscription is now set up here, along with an unsubscribe button. I extended the time before I changed this to make sure everyone had a chance to do what they needed to do.

It is an incredibly low subscription for the amount of information and help that you will be receiving here. This is a place like no other place as most of you have found. When I wrote this a month ago we were at 78 members, we are approaching 100 now. It’s just amazing.

Once again as stated above, if you have a problem with the $4.95, please email me at redefininglifewpmdd@gmail.com and we can discuss it privately.

I am adding the button here today and allowing 7 days for everyone to get their subscription started. Whoever is not subscribed by the 7th day will receive an email from me to make sure they are wanting to stay with this incredible group of Women.

Thank you all- We are making such a difference in the PMDD world and I can’t wait to share with you more new and exciting things that Jennifer and I have in store for you.

*Once you subscribe it will automatically come out of your paypal acct each month. If at any time you decided to unsubscribe you can click the unsubscribe, however, the rest of that month will continue on your membership.

New members: You will receive 7 days trial membership to decide if this incredible forum is for you.
