60 Years of Revenue Growing Experience for Less Than Your Monthly Rent 

Sounds crazy doesn’t it?

Crazy that you can get all of Jon Spoelstra and my experiences in growing ticket and sponsorship revenue and running teams for less than your monthly rent.

The Ultimate Toolkit Unlimited is a radical departure from what you’re used to from consultants. Typically, a consultant would charge you an arm and a leg to show up and tell you how to improve your business, and then leave you to figure it out. We’re flipping the script. We’re giving you all of the material from The Ultimate Toolkit to Sell the Last Seat in the House AND The Ultimate Toolkit – Sponsorships for less than what you pay in rent.

Here is the catch. There are only ten teams or organizations that will be able to purchase this on a yearly basis. 

Here’s what’s included:

THE ULTIMATE TOOLKIT TO SELL THE LAST SEAT IN THE HOUSE

I’ve recorded all new video modules going step by step through the strategy and tactics to increase ticket sales including new material on:

  • Sellout Strategy
  • Ticket product development including perks, benefits, packages, groups and single game.
  • How to negotiate All-You-Can-Eat with your food service provider.
  • Ticket Marketing
  • Sales Staff Structure
  • Reporting
  • Sample sales collateral sheets. No need to re-create the wheel. Just cut and paste what my salespeople use on sales calls.
  • This is perfect for anybody involved in ticket sales and marketing

Our most popular online training program walks you step by step through the group sales process for full-time salespeople, seasonal salespeople and interns. Unlimited access.

You get unlimited access to our online B2B ticket sales training program for anyone selling on businesses to sell tickets. It’s the same material I would provide in an in-person boot camp and I still review all the videos submitted.

Don’t waste time telemarketing single game buyers without the right training for your sales staff and a digital marketing strategy. This online program gets new salespeople up and running and making calls in one day.

THE ULTIMATE TOOLKIT – SPONSORSHIPS

Some have called this the bible for dramatically increasing corporate partnership sales. It works at all levels of sport sponsorships including colleges. You’ll receive:

Sponsorship Strategy & Tactics – Video version. The video version covers step by step the how to on:
• Capturing all your possible inventory. In the building, media, online and off-site are covered.
• Building corporate partnership packages with Anchor Partnerships. Don’t just use a menu, package partnership inventory with a purpose to reduce the number of partners and increase revenue.
• Pricing. There is no science but gut feel. How to price your corporate partnerships to set records.
• Naming Rights deal. Stadium/Arena strategies, interior naming rights deals and more.
• Non-traditional corporate partnership categories. These categories are ones you normally wouldn’t even think of calling on but we give you strategies on how to develop packages that meet their business goals. Have your Sponsorship sales and service staff members go through this program.

True, traffic driving promotions including retail promotions, online promotions, and more. The steps needed to truly create traffic driving promotions that meet the 5-Question Acid Test including promotions already written up by category.

Sales training on how to get the appointment and how to make the sponsorship sales pitch.

Sample partnership proposals including Naming Rights, Founding Partnership, Signature, B2B and HR Proposals.
