New ideas for Freerolls

We have had some problems with players not playing a buy-in after they place in our freerolls.

I have a few ideas and would like input from the members. We would still have a few freerolls that would be ok for all to play after all we offer the events to get new players to download using our links. We not only need buy-in players the hosting sites also look to see if we bring in new members.

Idea #1
We can offer freerolls just for the buy-in players. The one problem with this is that it the buy-in only gets 10-15 players the poker rooms usually set the minimum numbers of players higher for freerolls.

Idea #2
In our freerolls we could offer coupon entry to the buy-in instead of the cash payout. So the first week of the month we would host a freeroll with 20-30 seats to the buy-ins which would have money added. The coupon would be good for one of the following buy-ins that month.

Idea #3
Drop the freeroll winnings to the minimum amount and add more funds to the buy-ins. So a freeroll might only be $5 but the buyins would have $50 added or more.

so here is my take. lower the the first fr game to the five dollars or what ever, and give a coupon to all the players present at this game ( no sitouts).  for the next free roll and include a buy in option as well. kinda like the step game programs. include the rebuy option in the later games like crazy mentioned. to help weed out the bad beat luckers. and continue to increase the amount of the pool and reduce the number of coupons given out for the next game. and so on.
 i think you have used this format and as far as for me i liked it.
