Nope, definitely won’t be trashed. It’s a hell of a question (or questions). And it’s not always such a niche kind of thing, either. It’s certainly relevant if comps are a priority as well. But is that free hotel room and steak dinner really worth losing X amount on?
It’s a lot to explore and think about. I won’t be able to give exact numbers for this sort of thing, as you alluded to, but I can give it a shot (at least how I’d ballpark it). Others are welcome to give their thoughts too.
I am flying back home today, or so I was told, as my flight already got cancelled and the next one delayed. I’d like to give this a fair reply, so figure some time this weekend or early next week.
Great question, and keep ‘em coming!
