Hi! I have a membership site run on Wishlist Member. I'm playing around with using Wishlist Member to sell my albums as well, and everything works, except the pay-per-post functionality (which is what allows you to deliver a single digital product through WM) doesn't integrate with mailing lists. They're working on adding that functionality - according to their road map it's "in development". However, it doesn't have a lot of votes, so I'm guessing it's at the bottom of their priority list, of all the stuff on their "in development" list. 

So I was thinking maybe we could get a bunch of people from here to go in there and vote for "Update Email Integrations to work with Pay Per Posts." I'm sure we'd all love to see this work, as it would make it possible for us Wishlist Member users to sell our albums and actually deliver them right on the website itself, as opposed to an email. It'll also allow buyers to log in to the web site at any time if they need to re-download the album. 

Anyway, just thought this might be of interest to other members, who may want to upvote that to make sure it happens sooner than later. I'm actually using it like this anyway, and just manually updating people's tags, but that's going to be a PITA in the long run.

Good idea!

Having trouble with your marketing? Wish you could have an experienced direct-to-fan marketing expert look over your actual campaigns, music, or content and offer feedback? Or perhaps you’re just looking for a little one-on-one assistance so you can ask questions that pertain to your specific goals and get a second, more experienced, perspective?

I did discover a workaround that involves selling albums as membership levels, but I think that's going to be confusing and annoying, so I'm not going to do that. I'll just tag people manually for now and hope they don't take too long to implement the integration.

Also, I'm stupid and didn't post the link to the Wishlist Member roadmap. Here you go:

Whoa! That Trello board makes my head hurt. I do a fair amount of manual tagging in my own set up. So long as it's not something that triggers a reply that is time sensitive, it's a totally acceptable process. It only takes a few seconds to add a tag manually.

Yeah, and it won't be since people receive their download link directly on the site, without needing to check their email, which is nice. Also, they will automatically be tagged with "purchase," which will remove them from the funnel, so I only need to add a tag for the actual album they've bought to ensure I don't try to sell it to them again. So yeah, I'm not worried about that.

I'm not totally sure I'm following all of that, but I would not set up a customer flow that omits a welcome email, even if customers get redirected to the page after ordering. MANY people will miss that or close the page too soon, at least in my experience.

No, no, they get a confirmation email from Wishlist Member when they buy. I just mean that I don't need to rely on Aweber to deliver the album, so there's no need for an immediate tag with the exact purchase - just a "purchase" tag is enough to remove them from the funnel (if they're in it) and Wishlist takes care of delivering the product. Then I can tag them with their album later so I can see which subscribers have bought what.
