Question for creators who run mixed-audience communities:
If your community serves two very different groups (for example: end users + professionals in the same industry), how would you structure monetization without eroding trust?
Specifically:
  • Would you separate tiers by role (user vs professional)?
  • Charge professionals more for visibility/access?
  • Keep the core community free and sell classrooms or add-ons instead?
  • Or something else entirely?
I’m trying to balance:
  • protecting the user experience
  • avoiding β€œeveryone feels like the product” energy
  • while still monetizing fairly from the people who gain business value
Curious how others have handled this in practice, not theory.
