We shall see, but I don't know that putting up the price necessarily fixes
the registration income issue. You only have to deter a relatively small
proportion of attendees to wipe out the increase in charge.
I assume that the converse is also being applied: viz. cutting meeting
costs. It's hard for us oiks to tell because we only see:
- registration fee
- breakfasts/cookies
Anyway, registration is still the smallest component of attendance for me.
Hotel and travel are still bigger problems, and I continue to wonder whether
we could increase attendance (and hence registration income) by facilitating
cheaper accommodation and travel.
Cheers,
Adrian
