Notes
35
- make an accurate model of the main income & expense categories, understand what are your main levers
36
- distinguish categories of costs: per-person, fixed, hybrid
37
- make conservative estimates and enjoy a happy surprise at the end (surplus = better food, scholarships, hire a sound system)
38
- estimate a range of scenarios from low to high turnout, pick a price that is affordable to participants while making an acceptable maximum downside for you
39
- if you're using a sliding scale ticket scheme, choose the midpoint price based on your estimated breakeven
40
- get someone to check your work! talking through it helps you spot logical errors
