What would it take to get more guys....
signed up to the MFCA. This question goes out to you guys who are not MFCA members. I'm not being pushy and we are glad you are part of the forum either way, but is there something that if the MFCA introduced that would get you to sign up.
This is something that we will be discussing at the business meeting in Canton and I would like some input from you guys that are on the fence. Is it finances tight, why buy the cow when you get the milk for free, not enough benefits to joining...I'm just curious and the rest of you guys that are members can chime in also as to what you would like to see the MFCA provide in the future or improved upon. The fact is, it takes about 200 members at our current membership fees to provide all the things that we currently provide. Members packet, convention, magazine, website, awards, etc.. We have steadily been dropping in numbers and not very many new coaches are joining the forum. Currently we have around 190 paid members. What would excite coaches to re-up or join for the first time?

giveaways could help, but it's not in the budget
stuff like some gridironpainters' figures
or jennings figures or megawatts figures or reggie figures or norbert bases or lomax bases or hulk bases or decals or TDQ / TDK players anything like that for the new members...don't have to be a full team or nother crazy like that but maybe 1 or 2 figures would be a nice joining reward. or go back to limited viewing priviledge unless a member.... just a few thoughts

More MFCA members only raffles. I would have bought some for the WATTZ board but I will not be at the convention! Some of the things I would buy a ticket for are decal sheets of your choice, a free 1 year membership to the MFCA, 1 free tournament fee, 1 free MFCA t-shirt or Mug. Things of that nature.

C'mon now...there has to be more thoughts on this subject. Would the MFCA league idea presented earlier this month be something that would get more signups?

Phil, Matt and I are trying to be as equal and diversified as we can with the Tweak. The biggest problem we have is a lack of commitment from people. We get all kind of promises for articles, but then they never show up. If you, or anyone else for that matter, wants to see different coahes featured, then by all means write something up about them and send it in. And when I say write, I mean more than a paragraph or two. Don't worry about the spelling or grammer, we can correct it. Just get those fingers going and e-mail it to us.

How about a new members section in the tweak. Have that coach send a picture with a little article stating how they got started in MF. The yearly membership is well worth the price. You may also want to get rid of the downloaded issues of The Tweak.
