2017 NRL Club Membership

[PaulyTom]

Has any other club done this?

PR you could arrange to meet up with 100 new mates.

Sharks need to work on the Female part but good work by the Sharks.

We tried that in New Zealand, didn't go so well

Lots of members, just one female. There's your problem...

Well done Parra. Considering the crap their fans have had to put up with, they have done very well.

18k isnt "the higher end" of a 16-20k scale, it is the exact centre. Unless you are talking about the median or something, thats is an irredeemably dumb statement.

Thought it was fairly clearly I wasn't speaking from a purely mathematical position - I was illustrating there are several sets of membership numbers the 'Dogs have achieved in recent years and of those figures, the 18k was at the higher end of those numbers.

I see cowboys are having a buy a ticket for next home game and get a free membership. One way of meeting your targets I suppose lol

 

[beave]

Nothing wrong with it but when we scratch our heads at why memberships are increasing significantly but club finances and crowds are not, here's one of the answers. One game memberships look great for the annual report, and good for future marketing, but do nothing for these two key issues.

Who is actually scratching their heads though?

Most people with half a brain can see the reason memberships continue to rise while crowds stagnate. You're beating a very old drum.

And if you think increased memberships don't contribute positively to the bottom line of clubs, you should check out of this discussion and check back into primary school for some basic maths classes.

Well everyone keeps asking why Souths have loads of members and sht crowds, somyes people seem to be not realising that one game memberships look great for membership tallys but aren't effecting attendances and having limited impact on clubs bottom lines.. I think we'd be surprised if we saw how many of current memberships are full season memberships.

"Everyone"

No, just a select few, then they get everyone explaining it to them fairly quickly.

As for "having limited impact" on clubs bottom lines, do you understand basic economics? It's better to get people who might not otherwise be inclined in at a lower price point than to not get their $$ at all.

Looks like we will actually crack 20,000. Not bad for a club that was tipped to fold in 2010.

(Helps being a decent team!)

When they crack 20,000 members which should be very soon, the club should send a news alert to Peter" I wear bandana" FitzSimons.

This bombastic ,arrogant git was one of the first ,who stated the Storm would have to relocate to the Central Coast,as soon as a Super union side was set up in Melbourne.We know how that is turning out now LOL.Dennis Fitzgerald, former Parra head honcho, another.

 

[STORM.99/07]

Storm have hit the 20,000 members mark.WOOHOO
