            I'm not sure if this is relevant to your issue but whenever you share a ticket from Ticketmaster or Ticketek the recipient of the ticket usually has to log into their own TM/Ticketek account to accept it. Didn't even know you could share membership tickets though?

              Yeah you can transfer your ticket to anyone, I just do it on the app.

                  I believe a higher number than the same time last year?

                          Looks like on NOVA fm this week they will have limited edition memberships of 6 for $66. Gee membership numbers don't mean too much when we are giving them away that cheaply.

                            I've said it many times, membership numbers mean squat. Membership $$$ are all that matters.

                              The numbers matter, as they have a high rate of retention and those gains become stronger on full membership fees the following year. Any new signing is a big win, with the promise of a higher and ongoing future return.

                                I understand what you are saying in regards to the various discounts and deals the club runs to hopefully attract new members and retain them. But at the end of the day these are methods to improve the bottom line. Who cares if the membership number increases from 60k to 65k if the membership revenue doesn't increase?

                                The membership numbers are a nice bit of propaganda but ultimately the club should be focused on the income generated because it's key to our continued survival and success. The numbers are just a byproduct that need to be taken with a grain of salt in my view.
