Ready to accelerate your membership growth?
A one of a kind event for membership site owners who want to increase their membership growth in 2025 and beyond.
Hear from successful membership owners and industry experts on the strategies and tactics that are working for them, discover future trends and new ideas, ask questions and connect with other membership site owners from around the world over the course of 2 days in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK.
With a mix of keynotes, power sessions, panels and more it’s all about providing you with actionable content that you can implement in your own membership to take it to the next level. With strictly no fluff, theory or pitching!
Retain is the only live event dedicated entirely to growing your online membership.
It’s an event for membership site owners, by membership site owners. Are you in?
What you can expect
2 action packed days of membership goodness with talks and panels on a variety of membership topics. Plus plenty of time for talking with other membership site owners too – because lets be honest, the conversations you have and ideas you get from the other people in the room are often the best bit of attending a conference!
What we’ll cover
The full agenda will be released soon, however Retain 2025 will be laser-focused on membership growth, with topics including marketing and sales tactics for attracting more members, improving your member experience and engagement, retention tactics, expanding and scaling your membership and more!
Who's the event for?
Retain Live is for people who already have an existing online membership site and are looking to focus on growth. We won’t be teaching the basics or talking tech – we’re covering higher level strategy around sales, retention and scaling. While we focus on online memberships, most of the info given will also be relevant to other membership types.

Meet Your Host
Howdy, I’m Mike Morrison, founder of the “Membership Geeks”
I’ve spent years guiding the growth of thousands of memberships, e-learning businesses and online communities.
With 20+ years in the online marketing and web development industry, we’ve been the driving force behind a multitude of 6 and 7 figure membership businesses in a diverse range of industries – from weight loss to coaching to executive training to bass guitar – and we have a proven track record of helping great clients to achieve fantastic results.
In 2015 I decided to take all of that knowledge and experience and use it to help entrepreneurs and small business owners to achieve success with membership sites on a global scale, and so created Membership Academy which has now helped over 11,000 membership site owners.
I’ll be leading the charge at Retain 2025 providing training throughout both days on the latest membership growth tactics and strategies, and sharing insights from our work with countless successful memberships.
But I’m not coming alone…
