Now, here we can see 2 groups of people, first who are willing to pay an increased fees and second who are not willing to to. So, keeping that in mind, club should apply segmented pricing and charge more to the first group and less to the second group, which will substaintially incraese their revenue.    2. Optional product pricing means, setting a low cost for basic product and then earning profits from more costly accessories. Egat the club can do is, they can keep fee for swimming low and can earn profit frofit necessary accessories used for swimming. And thus can keep their profit marging higher.    3. To improve upon their revenues they can offer life time mebership in a low cost, even they can introduce referral bonus, they can also try providing free accessories for new joinings.
