Location:  The Link Counseling Center

348 Mt. Vernon Highway, NE

Atlanta, GA 30328

August Board Meeting Minutes were approved.

NOMINATING COMMITTEE

1. Forgot to do this at the last board meeting.  Z asked if the people who served last year would be willing to do it again (Cathy, Van, and Bill).  All agreed.  We will vote on officers at the next board meeting.

NEW BUSINESS

1. Discussed increasing membership fees for next year.  We passed the motion to increase Student rate to $40, Individual rate to $60, and Couple rate to $100 for 2018.  We will also do a one time offer for members to renew before December 31, 2017 at the present rate.  We are going to do away with the half-year membership fees.
2. Currently, lectures are at $20.  Workshops are $60 for members and $70 for non-members.  We decided to go by event for cost of the lectures and workshops for next year.  We will discuss this over email for the beginning workshops of 2018.
3. Motion passed for Hollis weekend to have separate prices for Friday and Saturday.  Friday lecture is $25 for members, $35 non-members, $15 for students. Saturday workshop is $70 for members, Non-members $85, and student $50.  $25 CEU. There is no weekend price.

BOOKS AND MEDIA (Deb)

1. Don reminded us to not use “Custom Amount” on iPads.  On iPad, when people buy books, go under Items, enter books, and put the total amount for the books they bought.
2. Book sales seem to be brisk- sold all of Ashok Bedi’s books
3. Cathy asked about a basic dream and symbology book.  People gave suggestions.
4. Primer packet of terms – Cathy made 10 more copies of Pete’s basic definitions.
5. Book purchasing (the need for basic books, keeping inventory, etc.) – Deb has been ordering books.  She expressed confusion, so group helped clarify new trends.

TREASURER’S REPORT (Don)

1. Don reviewed the treasurer’s report, highlighting that attendance has been much lower.  This has made us come in under our expected income (currently at -$10,312).  He is hopeful Hollis will help balance this some.

PROGRAMS (Deborah and Cathy)

1. Deborah asked for someone to introduce Susan Olson in October.  Cathy volunteered.
2. Events for next year:
   1. Deborah has been talking to Michael Meade about coming next year.  She is waiting to hear from him on dates.
   2. Deborah has also been talking to Richard Tarnas’ daughter and the woman from the Marion Woodman Foundation.
   3. Deborah said the contact with the church has been great.  She has submitted the dates to the church for next year.  She was told we have preference over someone new. Still waiting to hear back from them on confirmation that our dates are ok.
   4. Deborah asked if we want to book Hollis for 2018.
      1. Cathy suggested that if we don’t get Michael Meade, we should go with Hollis.
      2. Board agreed that if both Hollis and Meade can come, we will do that.

FRONT DESK REGISTRATION (Jennifer)

1. Coverage for upcoming meetings
   1. October: Jennifer, Jayden, Z, and Cathy (if needed)
   2. November: Jennifer, Jayden
   3. December: Karen, McAllison, Jennifer, Jayden, Van
2. Jennifer had people fill out the membership forms on a separate table, which was helpful.
   1. Deborah will ask the church for a small card table. 
3. Don suggested rotation of coverage for the front desk.  Jennifer said she is happy to train people.

PUBLICITY (Cathy)

1. We agreed that sending postcards two months prior to the event would be better than current practice of sending them a month prior to the event.
2. We made a donation to The Council of Churches so we could use the listserv.  We can do one week a month.
3. Deborah brought up the fact that the most recent event was not on the Master Calendar. In the past, we have done it the week of.  Cathy believes that for a workshop, we need two weeks notice.  Lectures are ok to do the week of.
4. MATN, unfortunately, is no longer communicative.
5. Cathy asked for names to send to Georgia West College.
6. Jennifer volunteered to put some notecards at the Shambhala center and her daughter will take them to Georgia State University.
7. Cathy is meeting with people from different churches to have a contact to send 10 postcards to.
8. Cathy met with Atlanta Planet.  They think we are a good fit.  We need a slogan.  We agreed on “Seeking a more conscious life.”  For $2,000/year, we can get a picture with our sentence.  4x a year, we could have a visual.  WABE can also do an advertisement.  Cathy is going to do a press release to send around.
9. Cathy has also spoken to Atlanta Magazine.  They do different themes.  Cathy is not sure they are the right audience.

ATTENDANCE (Don)

1. Brainstorm ways to figure out why people don’t come on Saturday.  Saturdays are crucial to breaking even on weekend events.
   1. Bill suggested sending out a survey to ask members this question.  Cathy suggested we could hand a paper version of this out at our next event.
2. Bill suggested doing a Jung 101 for a topic of a meeting.  Others commented it has been hard to find someone willing to do this.
3. Jennifer suggested doing more current events.  Bill said we could use the Meet Up format for this.  Jennifer and Karen offered to help spear head this in the new year.

MEDIA/ SOCIAL MEDIA/ FACEBOOK (Bill)

1. Bill put up the events on Facebook and Meet Up today.  Please like or join the event.
2. Jennifer is locked out of Access Atlanta.   
3. The idea of the blog was brought back up.  Don said this has turned out to be harder than expected as we have to get permission from writers for the newsletter.

NEWSLETTER, WEB (Don)

1. Don needs more material.  Jennifer offered to write an article.
2. Cathy suggested asking Hollis for something on Trump and maybe also asking Steve Buser.

HOSPITALITY (Mahshid)

1. Things have been going well.  People enjoy the food.  Mahshid needs a bigger budget, which Z agreed to.

ATLANTA JUNG SOCIETY BOARD MEETING

Date and Time:  Sunday August 13, 2017 2-5 PM

Location:  2896 Knob Hill Drive SE

Atlanta, GA 30339

2:14 PM Meeting called to order.

1. Z read “The Guest House” by Rumi to start the meeting.

April Board Meeting Minutes were approved.

NEW BUSINESS

1. Sound system- Don said the last recording wasn’t good because it was done from the speakers, not from the microphone.  We are going to start bringing out own projector because the other one hasn’t been working well.  Don is going to do sound for the next event.
2. Steve Buser suggested putting our recordings on the Asheville website and splitting the money.  Don does not feel comfortable sending the last recording to Asheville. Cathy said she spoke with Steve, and they haven’t been selling much.

HOSPITALITY

1. Z said there was nothing to bring up.

FRONT DESK REGESITRATION

1. Jennifer had sent an email about needing more help up front.
2. Peggy shared she felt like things had been going well.  We did have a lot of people sign up for memberships the last time we met.  This created a bit of a back up in line.  Jennifer suggested having a membership table so this doesn’t get so backed up.   
3. We decided for the next meeting to put a white board with membership prices (Cathy), signs on the table (Cathy), clipboards on the benches with someone explaining how that works, and nametags in the main room.
4. Peggy is going to reach back out to April to see if she is interested in volunteering.

MEMBERSHIP

1. Renewals
   1. Jennifer had suggested over email doing annual memberships only.  Don addressed this saying it was part of by laws to do it as we do it now.  Z said that we shouldn’t be deterred that we would have to change the by laws.  Z likes being able to do a full year membership.  However, the software piece is challenging.
   2. Don explained that in Quickbooks, you can make a query as to who joined from November-December.  To do memberships annually year round, these queries would have to be done each month.  The newsletter comes through another place.
   3. We agreed that given the staffing right now and the the technology challenges, we are going to keep the full year and half year memberships as is.
2. Fees
   1. Peggy shared that a lot of people don’t want to pay the $50 up front, but will pay $25 when the lecture is $20.
   2. Karen suggested increasing membership fees all around.
   3. Peggy shared that people weren’t joining at $50 so she is hesitant to increase the fee.
   4. Deborah believed this year was different because the change of venue and also not having a big named speaker in February.
   5. We will decide on whether to raise the fee in the October board meeting.

BOOKS AND MEDIA  (Bob and Deb)

1. Deb asked for clarity on ordering books.  She has been told she has overbought at times, and other times, she is asked to keep things in stock.
   1. Z explained we are trying to keep the basics because it’s a value to members.
   2. Deborah clarified that we were going to sell the speaker’s books (or a book the speaker recommended) and basic Jung books.  Basic books like Memories, Dreams, and Reflections have been requested.  Also, Bill said that the Red Book reader was also being requested.
      1. Deb noted that this method of selling the book the speaker recommends could become a problem a couple years down the road as we will slowly get a stock pile of speaker’s books.
   3. Are we discounting too much? Bill suggested we didn’t need to keep the firesale going.  He offered to take some books home if there wasn’t room in storage.
   4. Deborah researched the books for the September speaker, Dr. Bedi.  He had said the publisher might let us order some and return ones that weren’t sold.  If this is not the case, Deborah suggested getting 20.  Don and Bill wondered if this was too much. Deb said she would take care of this and the other books. She is going to use Cathy’s address as a secondary.
   5. We will continue the firesale on the non-essential Jung books.
2. Tapes- Cathy said we sold a lot of tapes last time.
3. Cathy suggested having packets of terms available for $5.  Cathy volunteered to make copies of these for the next meeting.
4. Karen said she would send the list of books Pacifica had sent to her for her program.
5. Deborah will send information on speaker’s books to Deb and Bill.  Bill said he was taking a break this month, but will be available in the future.
6. For December or January, we can do a raffe for a book for new members.

TREASURER’S REPORT (Don)

3:00 PM Meeting called to order

1. Z read a poem to start the meeting.

NEW BUSINESS

1. Some notes on the new space
   1. Lazo will come at 6:30 PM to open the doors.  We must be out of the new space by 10:20 PM.  At 10:30 PM, an alarm goes off.
   2. We are hiring Lazo to do coffee, water, and clean up.  We will be using their ceramic cups, plates, cutlery, etc.  We pay him per hour.  He will also be doing the sound and AV.  This will be ~$170 for most meetings.  We are able to scale this back as needed.
   3. The side door will be open so no greeter is necessary.  There is an easel we can use to make a sign to know people which door.
   4. Don plans to continue recording the lectures.
   5. Deborah knows how to do the AC.
   6. Deborah is going to get the wireless password(s) for the space.  Don has been not been able to get the hotspot transferred from Bill Marshall.

   2. Cathy and Mahshid will exchange hospitality stuff.
   3. Cathy is going to put signs on Trinity Presbyterian’s door for the meeting in April.

   8. Ask a volunteer (Judy Maner or Charles Knott) to direct people in the parking lot to the correct entrance.
   9. For April meeting, we will try doing registration in the room to the right. Hallway is too small for a table.
3. Media
   1. Bill is going to keep selling tapes.  Renting does not seem to be worth the effort.
   2. Do we want to offer the ability to listen to past talks on podcasts to members?

Don suggested more education on podcasts is needed.

Z asked about the cost on this.  Don said the answer is complicated, and we can revisit this idea at a later time.

Bill suggested educating people via the newsletter.

Bill suggested podcasts may work well as an incentive to renew memberships.

Cathy asked if you could earn CEU’s for listening to podcasts.  Deborah says that you would have to have accreditation and tests.

1. 1. Don brings up the larger topic of the website and whether to upgrade.

BOOKS AND MEDIA

1. Discussion around if we are going to try to sell all the books or keep some inventory.  Cathy suggests we wait on this decision until the next board meeting.  Deb asked if we should fire sell anything to thin out inventory.  Don and Bill believe that discounting some of the books in April is a good idea.
2. Do we want to have one person (Bill) sell both media and books sales?  Deb offered to do the sells until Bill gets there, if needed.
3. Deb said we will see how sells go this month for Beebe’s book.  Will reorder if needed.   Cathy offered to be back up for sales if needed.

REGISTRATION (Peggy)

1. Peggy will be there in April. Jen has confirmed for both April and May.   Peggy will not be there in May.  Karen will not be there for April or May.  Cathy offered to help.  Peggy needs to give registration stuff to Cathy in April.
2. Van will do CEU’s for May.

TREASURER’S REPORT (Don)

1. Don reviewed the treasurer’s report and noted that the net income is around negative $2,000.  Actual loss is around negative $5,000.   Annual dues are $2,000 short.  Don said he was not sure why people were not renewing memberships online.
2. Income budgeted for Feb 2017 was $3,100. We have only made $1,700 so far this year.
3. Main issue seems to be membership renewals.  Deborah mentioned that usually have to have a big speaker for February to help with membership renewals.  We did not do this year.
4. Peggy asked about a membership drive.  Don said big speakers have historically been the draw.  Peggy suggests talking about membership drive at the next board meeting after we have settled into the new space.  Deborah suggested we do a push in May for membership.  Cathy suggested having someone at the door promoting membership.  Peggy said this has been part of what they have been doing at the front desk.
5. Don drew attention to page 4- profit/loss by event.
6. Don reviewed the Vanguard statement and the Wells Fargo available balance.
7. Cathy asked if we got everything transferred from Bill.  Don said that he settled this.
8. Cathy asked if we need to scale anything back.  Don reviewed major expenses (Speaker fee, travel, event income) and said hospitality was not a major cost.
9. Don said QuickBooks is now $400+ per year.  Hotspot is $50/month.  Bill Marshall has been paying this.
10. Don said feeling like the podcasts, website, etc. have felt like a black cloud hovering over him.
    1. Bill offered to help with podcast.
    2. Peggy suggested we let things settle.
11. Treasurer’s report was approved.

Cathy will get a card for group to sign for Bill Marshall’s wedding and to congratulate Dr. Katie Givens Kime.
