For a little perspective: Would you rather pay $500 to see it in person? Fifty years ago, I'm pretty sure someone would pay $30 to see a meet in a different state, while laying in bed...
That's the typical response. We aren't living 50 years ago, we are living today.
With volume comes profit. By charging that much money they will only hit a small number of potential subscribers. Lower the price and the ball game is changed. Yes, it's that simple.
As for the running part, they won't profit nearly enough with their revenue until the rate is lowered. Sorry, I've been around the block many times with people in their position. One "unnamed" company went back and forth with me saying they'd never lower the price...they cut it in half 12 months later. No, it wasn't because of my emails, it was $$$$$ reality that caused it----they got greedy and it backfired.
$30 per month is far too much if you are trying to reel in a major portion of the running community.
But, go ahead and tell me I'm wrong. I run 2 businesses in Michigan and figured it out at a very young age as minimal profits force you to change your strategy to create "real" growth. They may do well with their other ventures, but the $30 price will drop soon or their audience will dwindle as live streaming events are everywhere now, and many are free as they make their money thru strong and smart advertising.
