I think it's $4 too much.
let's be realistic here:
it's 14 million to 1 to win it.

not win you really think about it. . . .5 dollars at a chance to win millions. Its worth it to ma!!
Hassle,
I can drop the lotto price to $1 IF:
I drop the commission and matrix
I drop the Humanitarian Aid
I drop the payout amount
I drop the revenue benefit to PIPS members
You can always play the $1 Pick 3 and Pick 4 the odds on a win in Pick 3 is less than 100 to 1.

Great answer Bryan. Some people do not see whole picture.Quote:

my local football team halved their entrance fee recently and now they fill a stadium that was previously barely half full.

no thanks, I'm only interested in selling not buying.

Hey Hassle,
Why you are influencing changes. Bryan structured program and that how it will be. If you do not like it, start own lotto for your football team.
It looks that some members are never happy whatever you offer them.
It's like putting brake in car when friends are pushing you up hill.
This is not a very good example hassle...You've doubled the number of people coming to the game by halving the ticket price. That keeps you at the same income generation you had before. While I will admit that now you potentially have twice as many people making use of the concession stand(s), that has to be considered a separate business. Based on ticket sales alone you doubled them but you didn't bring any more money in than before. If there was another "product" in conjunction with PipsAid where getting more tickets sold would in turn spur sales of "the product" then your example would be valid; in this case it is not.Quote:
