November 14 membership conference call meeting notes

[Jack Bacon]

Ken Hand is still working on a possible GM discount for CORSA members.

Jack is still working on COPRSA advertising on the Corvair Center Phorum. The cost would be $200/year but working on a discount for CORSA.

Bob Helt is still working on obtaining a list of former CORSA members so he can contact them.

Bob also proposed that the cost of membership needs to come down and we then discussed attracting new members by reducing the digital dues to $20 for first year members. Mike Hall said we have a lot of grill badges that are being written off so we could send one to new members. Ken suggested also adding a Corvair Basics CD which currently comes with the book but extras could be produced for $2 each. Jack will write this up as a proposal to the BOD. if this is approved, we would like the membership application changed to include this information. See below-

I would like to propose this idea for new membership growth.
A $20 membership fee for a digital membership for the first year only
Free CORSA grill badge ( We currently have quite a few of these that are being written off)
Free Corvair Basics CD ( This is the CD that comes along with the book selling for $25. We could print extra CD's for a couple bucks)
On the CORSA membership form we could state that a first year new membership comes with a CORSA grill badge and the Corvair Basics CD.
Let me know what you think and let's get this going!
Thanks!
Jack Bacon

Harry will move the membership brochure from the documents section on the website to the main membership page.

We talked about ordering vertical flags like Corvanatics group uses at events with great success and Mike will check pricing on getting them made to give to directors to bring to events or loan out.

Next conference call Monday December 12 8pm

Thanks everyone for another great meeting.

I like the idea of a $20 first-year membership fee for a digital membership. Hardcopy - no. Digital - yes! Al
