If this class usually costs $2,000 per student in other markets and we say we are gifting it to you, how come there is a $20 reservation fee?

Many years of experience in hosting these free public seminars has taught us that nearly 50% of all people who schedule fail to show up. This wouldn’t be a problem except that it forces us to begin turning applicants away as soon as the number of registrants exceeds the 100 seats in our auditorium. Additionally, it causes us to order way too much food. Our solution is to collect a $20 cancellation fee, then rebate it to every registrant who shows up for the seminar. Those who register and then don’t show up, forfeit the money.We’re hoping the $20 cancellation fee will cause people to think a little harder before they casually activate their “save me a spot” option. As a matter of interest, if you choose to donate your $20 rather than have it rebated, you will be added to the list of donors for the Stratford General Hospital Foundation Raise the Roof Campaign.Wow!
