BN membership renewal - price drop?

Never mind. Just read the rest of the email 🤣

Well, here's the deal, oh, wait. What? I was getting ready to launch into an explanation! LOL :geek:

Yeah the thought process was instead of sending you a pack of goodies you may or may not want…they just offer a members-only section of the store so you can pick out your own goodies.

What did it used to be? I believe it was that price when I signed up.

If I'm being blunt it really needs to be even lower if the goal is to bring in members and grow. I've had many people tell me they were interested in joining until they saw the price. The classic broncos forum is about $12 and that's pretty easy to swallow. The $75 a year for vendors is also a heck of a lot better than $130 per month at the other 6G forum.

Now if the goal is to maintain a certain atmosphere, yes a higher cost can help limit casuals and trolls.

ok.. another question, perhaps for @Laura or @London .. I realized I never got the 2021-2022 rocker patch - is there any way to get one? and is the only way to get the 2022-2023 rocker patch, to buy the package that comes with the stickers too?

Also interested in the 2021-2022 rocker patch. I intended to order one during the holiday season... but it disappeared shortly prior to that. Which... in hindsight makes sense and I probably should have saw that coming. BUT, if there are any extra kicking around I wouldn't mind one.

Also... last night @London showed off a DIY hat with a BN patch... and I cannot find that BN patch on the store anywhere. Was that a future item or a past item I missed out on?

There used to be two pricing tiers. One was a "Premium" option that I think was $65/year. The other was just the normal membership at $25/year. The only real difference is the Premium option included a pack of swag.

I obviously can't say for certain—never talked to anyone on the BN about it—but it feels like there was lots of lofty plans/goals to make the Premium option really cool, and those never came to fruition. The Bronco Nation team is small, so it's probably one of those "too many projects, so little time" sorta things.

Checking now to see if we have any of the old 2021-2022 patches around! I will send you a direct message if we do :)

Checking on the rocker patch & will let you know. The BN patch was my member number patch back from when we had the Premium Member Kit. We do not have BN patches in the store yet, but those are coming!

And this is the link to just the rocker patch, it is sold separately from the stickers if you want just that one item.
