No problem,
I was just worried that are primary members likely come from these plant
groups, that of course will be more motivated to be premier members.
Initially, yes. Ultimately, not so much.
So can we afford to do premier membership?
I anticipated some losses of "regular" AGA members. SFBAAPS, for example, has
11 people that are AGA members. But they are talking about having the club
purchase memberships for all of their members, which would be an *additional*
40 members for us. Plus, now we have a tie to their club, and if they grow,
we grow. If they ever bow out, we have their mailing list to solicit ther
members "back into the fold."
How did you figure it out cheryl, what was your goal?
As above, and I was also hoping to eventually expand to foreign clubs. This
could be quite cost-effective for them.
I know I can hear the scream of frustration from Texas, like we haven't
beat this one enough....it is okay to kill me.
Can't do that. :-)
You know Erik has mentioned more than once over the years, that perhaps the
board needs a one hour monthly, semimonthly conference call to discuss
business, when I see something with like over 30-40 emails, like this one,
I think he may be right!
Ooohooh. I like to talk on the phone. :-)
