How We Built A Subscriber List of 50,000+ Members
Paid Memberships Pro has always been and always will be 100% GPL and available for free to download from WordPress.org. So how are we capturing (and hopefully converting) all of these free users of our plugin and documentation?
Below are a few tactics that have helped Paid Memberships Pro grow into (one of) the most used membership plugins for WordPress.
Notify Members of Upcoming Recurring Payment / Automatic Renewal for Membership
Our Recurring Payment Email Reminder Add On allows you to notify members that their membership renewal payment is processing soon. This recipe shows you how to use the pmpro_upcoming_recurring_payment_reminder filter to modify when that notification is sent.

Set Up a Landing Page to Capture Email Addresses
I recently created a tutorial video on how to set up a landing page in just 5 minutes using PMPro + Register Helper + the Memberlite theme.
The landing page in the demo gives access to a video, but you could offer other freemium content like an eBook, White Paper, audio file, subscription to a newsletter, or file download.
Methods to Totally Disable, Reroute, or Selectively Disable Paid Memberships Pro Emails to the Member/User or Admin
Paid Memberships Pro sends a variety of emails to the admin and member as related to their membership, subscription status, expiration, confirmation and more. If you’d like to alter the default distribution of these emails, below are a few methods to do just that. See a list of all PMPro-generated email here.
Getting People to Open Your Email: Two Tactics for A/B Testing Email Subjects
Here are two tactics we use to get people to open our emails:
Use wpMandrill to Get Delivery, Bounce, Click Rates on WordPress Email
If you’d like better information about how system-generated emails are being received, read, clicked or bounced, you can configure Mandrill as your outgoing mail service. Mandrill harnesses the delivery rates of MailChimp and overrides the wp_mail function included with WordPress. This method can be used for sites with and without Paid Memberships Pro.
This is also useful for troubleshooting email delivery issues as explained here.
