We are a university fine arts museum with a membership base under 5,000. We have always renewed our members according to their anniversary dates, which means we are nearly always in a renewal cycle. We are exploring a transition to a once-yearly renewal cycle. Is there anyone who can share their experience of the benefits and drawbacks of a yearly cycle, as well as the transition from monthly/bimonthly to yearly?
