The Secret to Massive Notion Savings 🎯

Guest User Strategy

• Pro Plan ($8/mo): Add up to 100 guests

• Business Plan: Expand to 250 guests

• Perfect for: Contractors, clients, external collaborators

Implementation Guide

Find your sweet spot between collaboration needs and budget. Start with a core team of full members and expand guest access strategically.

1. Keep full members to the core team only

2. Add everyone else as guests

3. Set page-specific permissions

4. Share pages, not workspaces

Here’s how to do it:

Real Savings Example

• 20 full users = $160/month

• 3 full users + 17 guests = $24/month

• Annual savings: $1,632 🤑

Potential Annual Savings 💰

• Form builder: $200

• Email client: $360

• Project management: $180

• Template hosting fees: 15-30%

• Guest management: $1,600+ 

• Total potential savings: $2,340+
