There are
basically three types of dues schedules:
- Dues based on full-time employees (FTEs);
- Dues based on an overall budget of the business; and
- Dues based on tiers.
The trend over
the past ten years has been moving to a tiered dues system and I'm a fan of that
trend.
The first two set you and your members up for an adversarial relationship!

With a tiered
dues system your members can pay for exactly what they want based on your
tiered dues structure and there is no going back and forth with the business
leader on how many employees they have at any given time or what their current
budget is for that given year.
Get out of
that game!
Work with your
members to give them what they want and what they are willing to pay for based
on your tiered dues structure.
The key is to be transparent on what the different levels will deliver for their dues point.

That's a win
