Ali Kay closed the doors on her membership and added 3,000 new members in a single week. In this episode, she breaks down the exact 5-day workshop launch, the $10 coupon that fills day one, and the charity day that turns cart close into her biggest sales moment.

Ali Kay is a working artist who built a 6,300-member painting community by doing the opposite of what most online creators do. She closed the doors. She picked up the phone instead of running ads. She gave away her cart-close day to charity. And it worked.

In this conversation, Ali reveals:

- Why she went from an "always open" membership to a closed cart (and why it tripled her launch result)

- The $10 coupon trick that makes day one of every workshop her biggest sales day

- The charity-day strategy that turns hesitant buyers into confident members

- Why the "wakeboarding while painting" ad worked when text-heavy creatives flopped

- The exact moment she stopped feeling like she was "selling out" as an artist
