I wonder, how did you grow? Was it one mass influx of members at an open house, after signing the lease? Did membership increase significantly after signing the lease? Was it word-of-mouth slow increase in membership?<br><br>
I've heard some labs who had close to hundred people interested before signing a lease, though maybe the barrier of entry for signing a lease was higher in a big city. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 6:16 PM, Mark Huson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mehuman@gmail.com">mehuman@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Strange how that worked out. We have about 17 paying members right now.<br>
