Manage episode 399744548 series 3467449
In this episode, I sit down with Kris McCarthy, co-founder of FanSaves a digital coupon platform for teams. Most teams have paper coupons that they distribute for sponsors before, during, or after games. Oftentimes these coupons are thrown in the trash, left in cars, and ultimately never used.
Summary:
Fansaves is a digital platform that offers fans discounts and deals from the sponsors of their favorite sports teams. It acts as a team's own digital coupon book, connecting fans with sponsors and incentivizing fan engagement. The idea for Fansaves came from the founders' experience in selling sponsorships and the need for a digital solution that could activate fans and provide valuable customer analytics. Currently, nearly 80 teams across North America are using Fansaves in various sports leagues.
The platform offers features such as triggered promotions, exclusive deals for season ticket holders, and real-time data tracking for teams and sponsors. Fansaves plans to expand its partnerships and create a marketplace for brands to connect with teams.
