In this episode, Jeremy discusses the importance of growing your email database during the off-season. While the in-season is a prime time for email list growth, teams often neglect the off-season, leading to burnout and decreased engagement from single game buyers.
Jeremy emphasizes the value of a large and convertible email list, as well as the opportunities for growth during the off-season. He provides tips on best practices for email capturing and suggests leveraging contests, events, and merchandise sales to grow the database. Jeremy concludes by encouraging teams to set goals for off-season database growth.
Often times teams ONLY focus on growing during the season through ticket sales opportunities and merchandise sales. Often times single-game buyer lists are burned out as they receive a ton of "upcoming promotions or buy tickets now" emails.
