The ReGroup: July ’19
Aug 01, 2019
July All-Star
Our July All-Star is David Piccirilli from the Houston Astros! Our All-Stars are industry innovators and top performers working smarter to increase the overall success of their outings.
Church Family Night
With the incorporation of consistent, ongoing promotion, this event crushed last year’s sales from 2,235 tickets for $26k to 3,804 ticketsfor just under $100kin revenue!
“The goal this year was to expand the outing through better distribution through Groupmatics and open up more seating options that just the upper deck,” said David. “The church distributed the link to each of their members on a consistent basis, which lead to an average of 225 link views per day. Elder David Bender of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles flew in from Salt Lake City to throw out the first pitch and was joined by former MLB pitcher and current president of the Texas Houston South Mission Jeremy Guthrie behind the plate to catch. The anthem was sung by the Texas Houston South Missionary Choir.”
