Membership in a Company: Overview
Membership in a Company: Overview
By definition, the term “Membership” in relation to a company means, one who has agreed to become the member of the company by entering his name into the ‘Register of Members’. Every person who has agreed in writing to become a part of the company and also holds shares of the company is considered the ‘Member of the Company’ and is said to hold membership in a company.

One day there’s going to be an investigative journalist obsessed with exy who decides to lookup the net worth of all the top exy players and discover they’re lower than expected.
Initially, they think, maybe they don’t buy a lot and keep most of their money liquid so it’s harder to track their net worth, but then they find out that nearly all of the exy players are generous philanthropists. Donating what they think is well over fifty percent of their income to various charities.
That’s their article, they think. Exy, One of the Most Charitable Sports in Modern History!
But then they start looking into it further and things start to look… suspicious.
Every single Edgar Allen exy alum donates to a mixture of the same ten or so charities. They are all lesser know charities that range from bringing exy to underprivileged communities to children with rare forms of cancer to environmental activism organizations.
Even the power trio from PSU, Day, Josten, and Minyard, have donated to a few on that list and their contributions significant. The difference between them and Edgar Allen alum though is that they also donate to causes not on the list and related to their pasts.
So they look into the charities more, looking at the mission statements, finding their financials, even volunteering at some of them. And they discover that things don’t quite match up. Yes the charities work toward the goals laid out in their mission statement, but the money they receive from the exy donations should vastly change their day-to-day operations.
And that’s how they find out that all those charities are a part of an elaborate money laundering scheme involving the top exy players in the world.
Shortly after figuring that out and shortly after connecting exactly who is doing the money laundering, they disappear without a trace.

This is the stupidest decision from Netflix ever. So, not only are you punishing your already-member customers, but you're making people pay an additional $8.00 a MONTH for EACH additional user on the account while we're in an over-inflated economy and people can barely afford to make ends meet, let alone pay for "fluff stuff" like a streaming service??
Give me a freakin' break. 😤😡
Not only that, but they have the NERVE to raise prices on members AGAIN. 🙄

Messaging your AI pricing model
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/messaging-your-ai-pricing-model/
Messaging your AI pricing model
This article is based on Ismail Madni’s brilliant talk at the Product Marketing Summit in Austin, hosted by our sister community, Product Marketing Alliance.
More and more AI capabilities are being added to product roadmaps every single day. Even companies that aren’t using true AI are still incorporating increasingly advanced capabilities into their product.
This gives us all a golden opportunity to rethink how we price our offerings and the story behind that pricing – and that’s what I’m excited to talk to you about today.
A brief history of software pricing models
Let’s start by taking a quick look at the history of software pricing models.
We need to understand not just pricing and packaging, but also the storytelling around it. However, back in the 80s and 90s, there really wasn’t much of a pricing story to be told. It was mostly one-time, large upfront purchases for on-premise software. You’d have some annual maintenance fees too. The story was just “this is the cost versus the value.”
In the late 90s and early 2000s, we saw the rise of cloud products with subscription models like Salesforce – monthly, annual, or multi-year recurring payments. It was cheaper upfront and the products were constantly updated, so there was real value there. But the pricing story didn’t evolve much – it was just “it’s cheaper to buy with a subscription.”
Today, we see a lot of subscription and usage-based pricing models. I’m a big fan of usage-based pricing because it directly ties the cost to the value the customer receives – the actual outcomes you’re providing them. It’s much more of a pay-as-you-go approach.
There are tons of examples of usage-based pricing in B2B – examples like Zapier (per task/zap), Eventbrite (per event), Snowflake, and AWS (per resource). Their pricing directly ties to the outcomes being delivered. It’s a win-win – vendors have to keep providing value, while customers only pay for what they actually use.
How to tell a story with usage-based pricing
AI capabilities fit beautifully into the usage-based approach and the stories you can craft around it. The usage metrics you select as pricing inputs can directly shape that narrative.
Are you creating new workflows and saving time? Are you making people more efficient? Broadly speaking, AI is going to do one of those things – help users move faster, be more productive, save money, or enable new ways of working.
How to craft compelling messaging around your pricing strategy
To see how you can use your pricing model as the foundation of a story that resonates with buyers, let’s look at a couple of real-world examples – one from Intercom and one from GitHub.

I don't know if I'll ever fully leave DA, but I hate what it's turned into.
Like I hate the fact that so much of the "art" on there is just AI slop. Like someone could work on their art for DAYS and it'd be overshadowed by someone that spent like 5 seconds typing in a prompt.
