As for your calculations on the revenue generated by registration and public
day, I think you are a little bit off. If 400 people paid 10 dollars each
that would be $4000. Since the registration was $60 per person for the three
day event, the revenue would be $24,000. Out of that many items were
purchased. The bag, the engraved bricks, the bricks to engrave, a pre-event
mailing, the raffle tickets, the sets to raffle, etc. Your $60 dollars
bought you a lot and the money goes fast when you start adding up the other
materials that were bought. From that pile of money a projector was rented
at $500 per day plus another $80 for screens for the animation festival and
the presentations. There were additional charges there. Break that down per
person and about $5.00 of each registration went for presentation equipment.
There are many more hidden costs to these events that only Christina and Joe
can chare with you. Oh, and Steve Barile too. Ask the organizers of other
conventions.

Joe’s number for public attendance was
3000. I thought admission
was $7, for a total of $21000, but if admission was $10, that makes $30000.

Ah - admission was $7 for a single day, $10 for both days. Assuming that Joe
meant 3000 paid admissions and not 3000 clicks of the turnstile, the take was
somewhere between $21000 and $30000, probably on the lower end of that (I’m
guessing most people only came for one day). Or it could be as low as $15000, if
1500 people paid $10 and were counted as attending on both days.
