The ReGroup: April ’19
Apr 30, 2019
April All-Star
Our April All-Stars are the Baltimore Orioles! Our All-Stars are industry innovators and top performers working smarter to increase the overall success of their outings.
Junior Orioles Dugout Club
In previous seasons, Junior Orioles Dugout Club members were mailed vouchers that could either be redeemed online or at Box Office windows with sales split 50/50 between the two. Switching this group to Groupmatics resulted in 2,000+ buyers moving over 7,900 tickets within a 7-day window for over $62k in revenue.
“With Groupmatics, the redemption process is simple and has moved the majority of sales online” said Scott Rosier, Director of Ticket Operations and Fan Services. “Fans simply grab the seats they want, enter their unique/personal account number as the Discount Code, and checkout. The process is very quick, easy, and straight-forward.”
The Orioles referenced the sales Dashboard and emailed sales summaries to help track sales. Their next step? Looking forward to seeing how Groupmatics can help with some of their fundraiser offers.
Shout out to Scott Rosier, Bud Verge and the Orioles staff for embracing the platform for one of their biggest initiatives! Moving groups online can be scary but worth it.
