She ok sounds like a good idea, how much is membership, I said $20.00. She said ok as a potential new member what do I get for $20.00, she said you need to tell them what they get for there money. I didn't have an answer short of a membership card. She laughed and said you may want to figure this out before you send out this e-mail. I can see her point, I can still be your friends, skip a membership card and save $20.00. So my question is to you as members what do we offer to entise membership?
