  • 1.  Pricing for membership levels based on number of people allowed in at one time

    Posted 01-24-2021 01:59 PM

    Hello,
    Do any organizations have membership levels that are based on the number of people allowed in at one time with the member? And if yes, what are your prices for the higher number levels?  Currently, our museum has the traditional levels: Individual, Couple, Family. We are hoping to transition to One Person, Two People, Four People, etc.

    An example of this type of structure would be The National Museum of Toys/Miniatures in Kansas City, MO.
    Our museum is in Tucson, AZ so we are trying to get replies from different areas of the country in order to compare pricing structures.

    Thank you,
    Megan

    Megan, Take a look at the Museum of Science Boston.  I believe their categories are for 2, 5, and 8 people.  So that no one has to guess at or define if a group is a "family" or in the same household.  www.mos.org/membership#!#membership-level

    Megan~
    Although not in a different geographical area from the National Museum of Toys/Miniatures, we too offer membership plans based on the number of people that are allowed in on that memberships.  We used to offer  2 (Individual), 4 (Family), and 8 (Family and Friends) People and then changed it to 2, 6, and 8, before deciding to offer 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 Person Friends & Family levels (and we can go higher if the member needs us to).  We start with a base price for 2 Person ($75) and then move up by $10 for every additional person added. The membership is call our Family & Friends membership regardless of number of people, so there is no questions as to whether someone counts towards the membership limit or not.
