ProTeam renewals 2003-12-17 - By thomas
Back
Hi Dave,
Well, we do consider proTeam renewal to be back to back - the reduced
pricing for renewing is for keeping pT subscription up-to-date and not
letting it lapse (which becomes even more worth it with content only
available for a limited time, the 'cover CD' type concept).
That said, we did offer renewal to all those who had ever been in pT earlier
on this year, so that was something we considered and did even before this
change in the pricing!
We sure didn't want people to feel in a pickle, yet proTeam content really
is growing at a large rate and a change had to come at some point, and there
always has to be a deadline to such change. You can be assured that we are
always watching to make sure proTeam remains excellent value, and will
continue to do so!
HTH!

Tom,
So what about those people who are renewing their ProTeam subsription from
2003 to 2004, but rather had ProTeam in 2002, let it lapse for a year, and
want to pick it up again in 2004. Though this may not count as a renewal
(e.g. from one year to the next), the same situation applies in that they
are not getting all NEW content and therefore should not be subject to the
full $895 price.
Also, if the deadline is 12/17/2003 for "new" subscribers, then a pricing
decision on renewals be it from 2003 or previous years should also be made
soon.
You've really put us in a pickel with this one.
Thanks,
Dave Angelini

Hi Bobby, all,
Well, the renewal prices will be given to people as their membership
expires. Those who are already in pT, and who are about to expire in the
next 2 months or so, already know, as they've been mailed, and that's pretty
much how things will go - as and when membership comes up for expiry, the
renewal opportunity will be sent out.
The reason for not giving a price is that renewal prices may not be as
static for long periods of time, unlike the first time subscription pricing,
so we can't announce a fixed and definite price at present. Sorry the
information isn't more concrete right now!
HTH!

Thanks Tom for helping clear this up. We all are waiting for actual price
quote on proTeam renewal.
