I am returning to PC after several years away (signing next week when my new director is back in town!) and am pleased to see the online ordering capability. I'm wondering if you all have found that it has reduced show attendance, increased outside orders, or had no impact on show sales?
There were always those, of course, who didn't come to the party for whatever reason but ordered from the catalog - this doesn't change anything for them. But, in my "olden days" there was a bonus given to the host for getting 15 or more guests - if that still exists, I could see this being an "easy way out" for people who are on the fence about whether to attend, possibly costing the host her bonus. Does that bonus still exist, has this affected it, are you seeing smaller parties? Just curious - thanks!
