What happened to LI Express? Has that club imploded? I thought they were the dominant LI club.
Greed and hubris. Undoing of all empires. Not to mention the mistreatment of most of your customers below the top team. Lesson for all clubs you better have a tiered price by model if you are not going to deliver the same value prop for all levels. Either that or keep it small to 1 team per grade. Business 101.
Teams 2 and 3 subsidize Team 1 in this and many other programs. Teams 2 and 3 are back in coach hoping for some peanuts while Team 1 is up in first class drinking champagne.....Better coaches, many more practices, more and better tournaments, training opportunities, etc.
This would be a fine analogy except that in the club model, the coach seats cost as much as the first class seats. Who would ever buy a 2nd or 3rd class experience for a first class price. Not sustainable. Once one club goes to a tiered pricing model and starts drawing families they will all fall in line. What do you mean the 2nd and 3rd teams subsidizes the 1st. Does that mean that the first class seats are free?
