Turn Data Into Game-Time Decisions with Hitachi Unified Data Accelerator

The Perfect Gameplan for Fan Insights

Success in sports, and business, comes down to execution.

You can have the right players, platforms, and strategy, but without the ability to act on data quickly, you fall behind.

Today, most sports organizations are overwhelmed with data spread across ticketing systems, fan engagement platforms, retail systems, and operational tools. The challenge isn’t collecting data, it’s making it usable in time to drive decisions.

That’s where many teams get stuck.

The X’s and O’s for Fan Insights: Fan Data Uses

Improve Advertising Revenue – With richer data, you’ll know exactly who was at the game, their purchase history at the game, and what parts of the stadium they traveled. Having these kinds of insights can help you focus sponsor targeting and authentic engagement in and out of the stadium.

Tailor Offers – When your fans aren’t at the game, you can engage them further with in-app offerings, targeted content, and marketing they’ll connect with. If you know which items, offers, or player memorabilia are selling well, support it even further with content for social media that targets them with more of it.

Better Retail Sales – With insights into your in-stadium retail, you can improve your selection of fan goods to improve sales.

Revenue Per Fan – Know exactly how much revenue you’re driving, what demographics are thriving and which need more support, and which sponsors are clicking with your audience so you can prove the return on investment for sponsors.

Your Gateway to Fan Insights: The Kinds of Data We Deliver

With a central access point to all your data streams, you’ll get easy access to insights on:

  • Ticket Sales – Know where people bought tickets, resale value verse box office, ticket margins, and which marketing campaigns or promotions were most effective in driving ticket sales.
  • Retail Sales – We give you insights on which items were bought, where they were bought, which jerseys and hats were the most popular, which souvenirs aren’t selling, and more.
  • Content – What types of content or social media posts generate the highest fan interaction and engagement.
