Opinions?  (On whether to offer multiple-issue subscriptions to a club, 
not the technical aspects)

Subject: Multiple-issue TAG Subscriptions

Hi Erik,

Is there any way to create multiple-issue subscriptions for the 
database? Jack forwarded me some correspondance about an aquatic plants 
club library subscription of 4 issues. I am thinking that our deal with 
the mailing company is one copy per envelope because they do it on a 
machine. So I probably need to keep these multiple-issue subscriptions 
on a separate list. Right?

I like this idea and I think it is something we should encourage, even 
if it is more record-keeping work. Can we offer clubs a deal (10% 
discount) for 3 issues or more, or something? The catch could be that 
they get no refunds if the club folds, but they can donate their 
subscription to another club, college/university, or local library.

This is something we probably don't want to include in the General 
Public Shopping Cart, or folks will lie to us. We could mention 
something on the web site that plant clubs or libraries can contact me 
about multiple-issue subscription discounts.

What do you think?
