Social Media Campaign Sets Out to Prove Tickets Mean Business

TicketManager encourages fans to share photos & videos highlighting the success of company sports tickets through TicketsMeanBusiness (#TMB) campaign and contests

TicketManager, the cloud-based ticket management software leader, announced the Tickets Mean Business social media campaign encouraging fans to share the success of their sports and event tickets through the #TMB hashtag. The most creative or effective entrants using tickets for business needs will be chosen throughout the year and rewarded with authentic jerseys, Apple watches, gift cards, and more.

“Every day we meet new companies with inspiring and creative stories about how they’ve used tickets to meet new customers, incentivize their staff, and drive business,” said TicketManager CEO and Co-Founder Tony Knopp. “They share their stories and their pictures with us and we see the value instantly. We believe it’s time to share those successes with the world and come together to end the lie that tickets are a boondoggle or a ‘nice to have perk’ as opposed to the crucial business asset they really are.”

Throughout the campaign, fans will hashtag their success at an event to participate in promotional weekly prize giveaways. Social media, which now encompasses more than 50 percent of online adults using at least two platforms, will be used to encourage customers to show off their client entertainment with the “tickets mean business” hashtag (#TMB).

The photos and videos posted by fans throughout the #TMB campaign, will be prominent through TicketManager’s sponsored partnerships with the American Airlines Center, Barclays Center, and Verizon Center as well as the numerous sports and entertainment events. Such sponsorships will feature TicketManger throughout the building, boosting buzz about the online tool and mobile app as well as remind customers to hashtag the success of their experience.

“Too many companies are being unfairly targeted for using an effective business tool in the right way,” said Knopp, “This campaign is the first step towards shining a light on the effectiveness of these assets while highlighting the responsibility of the companies that own them.”

The Tickets Mean Business campaign will kick off March 10th and include all events. The TicketManager team will be promoting the event in Dallas where two TicketManager partners, The Cleveland Cavaliers and Dallas Mavericks, face off in a crucial NBA showdown.
