2017 Membership - The March Towards 50k!

[BallaratBulldog]

And just like that it won't be long until we can keep track of 2017 Tally.

You would have gotten a email recently if you wanted to pick a cap, scarf, beanie or donate back to the club when you renew. An action they have done based on feedback.

Seem to have a new membership portal in the website that is redone.

It is important after this grand final wim that unlike some other teams that we capitals on success. 50k should be our target minimum.

If your a Doggie on this fourm without one, there isn't a better time to be more bulldog!

60k isn't out of the question.

It's not just about the numbers, it's about the revenue - with Social Club membership rising, they can rise the prices to meet the market.

Winning the flag brings in younger supporters. Those kids that are on the fence on which team to support, its how hawks became a strong club during the 80s and again during the 2000-2015

Whats the deal with Social Club memberships being sold out? I'm a social club member and have been for many years but I don't remember being asked about 2017(I have moved house so probably missed the letter). I dunno if they auto debit my account or what but I'll spewing if I miss out after all these years to people that are just jumping on now.

i just got bumped up to social club you beauty!

 

[DogsAreBarking]

After so long watching the club struggle for revenue I'm really excited to see what they can build now off the inevitable boost in memberships, merch, corporate attention etc that should flow through now. Hoping for good management to shore up the future of the club and set us on a path that kills the debt and brings in the sweet sweet dollars

My guess is that because we have 15,000 GF tickets allocated, that leaves 15,000 potential Premiership Circle/Social Club memberships before we hit capacity.

Given that I've previously received an email that as a Bulldog for Life if I do nothing before roughly the end of October, my membership automatically getd debited with my Social Club membership, my guess is that "capacity" is just the, say, 1,000-5,000 Social Club memberships we had left over if our club didn't use the full 15,000.

There's a waitlist if you and me of the remaining say 10-14,000 or so existing social club members don't renew it and it'll go to those registered on the waitlist currently.

Pretty sure they're gonna hit you up sometime tomorrow. It will be reserved aside for you again.

I'm confused about renewel of my social club membership. I just read on public forum that an email was sent last week to SC members, stating they had until 12 noon today to confirm renewel. I'm trying to contact club but cannot get thru. Have I missed out?

 

[bresker]

I'm a social club member and never got such an email . Log into your bulldogs account on the club website if you have one - social club membership still listed

So just to clarify, if we were social club members in 2016, we can still renew for 2017?

Same here.

Reckon a lot of people will be struggling to fork out social club memberships straight away. I know in my household we've spent thousands on tickets to semi final and grand final tickets and there will be people in way worse situations than us that probably travelled to Perth and Sydney too. Hopefully they give members some time to pay those off.

 

[nick1111]

This sounds to me we had until 12 noon today to contact club on renewel intentions for next seasons SC membership

This. I didn't even get the renewal email either. I have emailed them and tried calling. I don't even know if mine automatically rolls over of it i need to renew it manually. Better not lose it!

 

[rapidshave]

Those numbers from the Social Club selling out would include those who were SC members this year. I never received a email either and I just renewed on the Bulldogs website after 12pm today. It had a payment due by 31/3/2017 on it.

Would be extremely disappointed if they only gave 48 hrs for current SC to renew just so the bandwagoners can jump on after the fact.

 

[genxevo]

I got a renewal email on 23/09, but it said I didn't have to do anything unless I wanted to Opt out of membership or social club

I think the social club news on the Western Bulldogs websites referred to members renewing for 2017 and maybe wanted to add-on to their membership, and anyone who did by 12pm today got the add-on and now there will be a waiting list

likewise, I've not had any contact from the club and had a mild panic when i saw the tweet from the club saying Social Club membership had reached the maximum. I hope it is as some have said that they have just sold the remaining 1500 spots.

 

[Pugz89]

Wicked. I have lost my social club membership it seems. FUMING!

 

[mambavino]

I am on the rollover program but had to update my payment details anyway, so just logged in and processed the payment for my Social Club Reserved Seat membership this arvo.

 

[Igloo]

I got an email that wanted me to update all my details and shit, and choose what add ons I wanted for my membership, so i'm assuming once I did all that it means my social club is safe.

When? I called up two weeks ago, coz i realised they hadn't updated my address and email. Changed it, asked if anything important had been missed out, was told just grand final tickets process etc.

23rd of September. I just logged on right now to check it, and I could just put through my payment now. So I clicked renew, all the details were there, social club still there, and just confirmed it all.

Are you on the automatic renewal.

 

[bresker]

I just logged on and paid my first monthly installment for next year because you've spooked me so much. GA & social club coming out in ten monthly installments. All good. Payment processed.

Will probably upgrade to a reserved seat but plenty of time for that.
