I have sent an email to WT Membership regarding benefits for 2011\. Here is what I said.
To whom it may concern,
I am a currently in my 5th year of my Wests Tigers membership (Membership Number: WTI-530947). Whilst i am pleased with the advantages Membership brings i believe they could be enhanced by using some of the ideas of other clubs.
I have a work colleague who is a member at Penrith, and they get some tremendous benefits which he tells me about. Some of these include:
- Team release to Members via email. Currently we have to wait till around 5pm to get the team. At Penrith they get their team around 11am and it then gets released to the media at 3 or 4pm. The members have been trained not to release the information.
- Members only announcements. Injury news and player signings are some of the information released to members first via email. An example of this was, Penrith members were told of Petero Civoniceva's hand injury in Origin 2 almost 5 hours before anyone else knew.
- Members only bar and food line. Saves the hassle for members lining up with the rest of the General Public. Also seen as a privilege. If you were a Tigers supporter and not a member in a queue for 20 minutes and you look over at the Members line which takes 2 minutes to get served, that supporter may consider membership for the following season.
These are just 3 ideas that i feel will not only enhance the current membership benefits(which will help retention of members), but also could be used as a tool to recruit new members.
I hope these are ideas you can take on board when planning your 2011 Membership packages.
Regards,
What do you guys think of the ideas I have raised in my email. Do you see any benefits?
Hopefully I get a response.
