Why the early-bird deadlines and late fees?
NIW provides a hefty cash influx to the organization, but not until registration fees begin to come in. NAI must make commitments and pay workshop suppliers (hotels, transportation, food, etc.) as early as August. Providing an early deadline with a price break gives us an early indication of how many people will attend the workshop and provides a much-needed cash flow boost to the organization. Late fees encourage people to register early and help them get their first choice of off-site sessions and preworkshops.
