I don't think it's as easy as we all think to make our own deals. l seem to recall that we are part of the PRL/RFU agreement which includes TV rights and league sponsor which is held by the RFU. The good news is that this is up for renewal at the end of next season.

The quickest win would be kids go free across the whole league when with an adult. Okay lose a tenner but gain behind bar, food, sweets etc and developing a sustainable fan base

Surely a more sustainable solution would be that the championship and National 1 clubs plus other nation league clubs who wish to, move away from the RFU. Take on no more DRs or funding and set up a whole new structure.
Effectively making the premiership a province type league, it would grow local interest promote player development and make clubs self funding. Moving away from a business model which requires funding to survive. The RFU would do everything to stop this including redistribution of funding if they were to lose effectively 2, 3 or 4 of the leagues which are so important to player development

Set up a YouTube channel that you stream all the games to which will allow you to sell the good rugby you see live
I'm sure it's more complicated to do but seems a relatively easy step

Given that if we wait for the RFU to do something we will be here until doomsday, what useful steps could the clubs take, jointly and severally, to meaningfully increase attendance at the Championship, ideally ones with low cost.
