Sports

Fans are everything in sports, but finding and keeping them is always a challenge. As fan behavior becomes more closely tied to the Internet and other technologies, it’s essential that sports organizations be able to collect and harness the fan information available to them.

From billing data, order data and contact information to demographics and mouse clicks, numerous departments need access to information about fans and customers. Still, that information can be hard to consolidate and even harder to analyze for useful insights about customer desires and behaviors.

To boost earnings and profits, sports organizations need a way to use customer insights to create strategies that match promotional objectives, operational processes and broadcast patterns.

SAS provides an end-to-end set of capabilities to address these and other prominent challenges facing sports executives, including data quality, fan segmentation, campaign management, seat and resource forecasting, business reporting and financial management.

With SAS, you can:

  • Increase revenue from fan loyalty.
  • Build a framework for performance measurement.
  • Segment fans according to their preferences, behavior and profit potential.
  • Ensure that promotions are timely and relevant.
  • Improve media negotiating power through better fan insights.
  • Boost attendance and merchandise sales.

To deliver these benefits, we offer capabilities in four primary categories:

  • Data quality and integration. Cleanse and consolidate all your data to understand the total value of your fans. Eliminate duplicate records that exist in multiple operational systems. SAS offers a complete portfolio of data integration capabilities including data cleansing and enrichment; extraction, transformation and loading; data federation; master data management and more. IT management capabilities also help you understand and resolve inefficiencies within your infrastructure to maximize each IT resource's impact on the bottom line.
  • Fan intelligence. Predictive modeling, segmentation, marketing automation and more help you maximize each fan's total value, increase attendance and deliver marketing campaigns to your most valuable fans.
  • Performance management. Cost and profitability analysis help you learn where it is most profitable to increase stadium revenue while containing costs. Dashboards and scorecards show how each department's efforts contribute to strategic objectives and KPIs. Financial consolidation and reporting help you ensure timely and accurate reporting of financial information.
  • Stadium intelligence. Forecasting, pricing analysis and optimization help you improve occupancy rates, revenue per available seat, profitability and wallet share. Human resource management also lets you predict turnover and optimize staff schedules. Analytics and BI reporting allow retail operations to predict demand and understand the value of customers and promotions.
