It would be great to have a POLL on when ppl buy their memberships.
ie;
October, when they are 1st sent out
Prior to Christmas (presents)
After Christmas
At the Family Day
During pre-season
Just before Rd 1
After the start of the season
FWIW I have always purchased prior to Christmas. This year I decided to go onto that "Rolling" instalment arrangement where I remain a member year after year or until my Credit Card instalments are rejected !!

many on here said as we were waiting for memberships to come out that they always wait till just before rd one
essendons figures are always inflated by the roll over rejoining.

Didn't come out late due to board change (membership department were unaffected), but came out about 4 weeks later than last year.
4 weeks would be a couple of thousand members at this time of year IMO.
The key for our membership, and what will determine whether it's 28k or 38k is our first 6 rounds.

They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

We are also unlikely to take the pre season seriously which will not help either.
I gather these are your thoughts and not the clubs

compare it to last year and the saints might be in trouble with memberships.

I agree with plugger66.
I reckon we will have 25k members who will sign up regardless, and then another 10k who are variable, depending on how we perform.
As I said above, we could get 32k if we win the first six games, but I reckon we will struggle to get 30k unless we get a start like that.

Just on the comparisons with other Clubs..and our numbers from pervious years..
Maybe someone can fiond out when we started selling memberships in previous years and work out members/week signing..might hush a few of the doomsayers.
My memory is telling me that we were starting 4-6 weeks this year later than previous years
Will be boosting the numbers by 40-odd (all with reserved seats) this arvo when I go and finalise the MW yearly reserved seating.

Our actual membership level today is more likely to be 12,000 or more after Saturday when a lot join/renew over the counter.
The Herald Sun have given us absolutely nothing in publicity over the last month or so, there has been no advertising apart from an odd strip ad in the Age, so our exposure to the market place has been zero since the membership package was introduced, late as it was.
The Herald Sun is proberbly ante us because their oposition is a Club sponser, so jealousy's a curse.
I wonder whether we now have a media person on the staff, maybe not - it's proberbly all left to Archie to do and he can't do everything.
The Membership level should reach more than 30,000 again for next season as the supporters seem to be fairly confident with the future after all the changes in admin., good recruiting, not a bad draw etc. so let's all be bullish and drive the membership bandwagon to record levels for 2008.

Come on Saint66au - tell us when the Hun last gave the StKFC some good publicity, say just 10% of what they give the Filth and Essendon nearly every day would be a huge improvement.
To list a Membership chart showing us at 10,000 today shows that they have just guessed a figure - very poor journalism.
Anyway, I'll proberbly give the Hun the arse as I've subscribed to the Age deal anyway.

We have had quite a bit of publicity, the move to Frankston got front page of the Herald Sun, the board movement got publicity and Fraser coming back got publicity.Go Sretnias Go wrote:Our actual membership level today is more likely to be 12,000 or more after Saturday when a lot join/renew over the counter.

But what the club has done very poorly is not organising training sessions or gatherings where fans can meet players and buy memberships. Carlton had a meet and greet on Saturday (this got publicity and would have sold memberships), Hawthorn also had the same thing on the weekend. All these closed sessions especially for the school holidays are going to kill us trying to attract fans to buy jumpers or sell memberships.
