Some people gather 'letters of intent', which is a totally non-binding agreement to "maybe possibly pay you for your goods and services once they are available". I've found this approach to be a false sense of security and "readiness", and generally sends the wrong message to prospective members. What's the incentive to them to sign an LOI? Nothing, really. It's all about *you*.
I am a HUGE supporter of "members first" - but rather than asking them to sign a LOI, which is likely to turn lots of people off in the first place, get them *involved*. Welcome them to help with the planning, and eventually the execution. Make it all about *them.* That buy in is far more valuable (and convertible) than a non-binding signature. /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia learn how to launch and run a healthy, happy, and sustainable coworking space and community <https://indyhall.stagehq.com/events/1048> On Mon, Sep 26, 2011 at 1:22 PM, Jonathan Yankovich < [email protected]> wrote: > What is a "pre-membership" agreement? > > Wouldnt anything that is conditional on membership be part of the > membership agreement? > > Jonathan > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Coworking" group. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msg/coworking/-/ctcIJn07YF4J. > > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/coworking?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
