Looking to Increase REIA Attendance

Hey BP! Last year, I started a local REIA in our local community in Arkansas. We've consistently had 6-8 attendees for each meeting with a few being higher and few being lower. Prior to starting it, I attended some other meetups that were further out and stole the best of each one to build mine. I charge $15/meeting or offer a $150/year membership, which no one has purchased yet. We have a blend of networking and education and bring in local speakers to discuss strategies and tips.

My question is, how do I increase the attendance?  I have a goal of averaging 15 people per meeting this year.  What have you done or seen that really resonated with attendees and got them talking and spreading the word?

TIA!
