[Lnc-business] error with "renew your membership" email

[Scott L.]

It looks like the Executive Director caught this error within 90 minutes of
sending out the original e-mail.

 

Everyone makes mistakes.  The real question is:  how does one deal with
those mistakes.


By quickly discovering and apologizing for this error, we show our members
that our staff is on the ball and that they can roll with the punches.  For
a political organization, that is a very valuable attribute to posses.

 

I thank Mr. Benedict for his excellent handling of this problem.

Earlier today we mistakenly sent a renewal request to everyone on our email
contact list, even if they are not members, or their memberships are not
expired (or about to expire). The email even went to Lifetime Members, whose
memberships never expire.

We apologize for the mistake and will work on correcting this ASAP. If you
don't think your membership was expired (or about to expire), then there is
no need to renew. If you renewed and your membership was not expired or
about to expire, we'll contact you about a refund.

I should add that we are low on money right now, and we would appreciate any
support. If you are willing to make a contribution
