Marketing for Mariner's Baseball Featured

 

I think that there are other great marketing ideas for the ball club to get interested groups and people who have never been to a game in the new facilities.
1. They could create a package deal with AmTrak, a couple local Seattle restaurants and a hotel with close accomodations to the ballpark. Make the package plan customizable so that the clients could choose their personal preference. Let them get a chance to talk about the experience to friends & family. What a great marketing idea when your club is not having a great year. I am sure that the other businesses would like the opportunity to collectively advertise with other established businesses. Cater it toward different groups. Can you imagine a whole train full of crazy Mariner rooters from Southwest Washington (Nike, Adidas, Fred Meyers, etc). Then when they get to the park they are treated like royalty. Signs, ballcaps, jerseys & momentos.
2. Have a marketing contest with your Mariner audience. On their blog have them decide what would be the greatest marketing idea ever. The winner would get season tickets and bragging rights about how they helped the Mariner's bring in a bigger audience.
3. Think Guerilla Marketing!

Unfortunately, the Seattle Mariner's baseball team is not doing so well as told by the Seattle Business Journal.

The other option is that they could cater it toward different groups. Can you imagine a whole train full of crazy Mariner rooters from Southwest Washington and Oregon (Nike, Adidas, Fred Meyers, etc). Then when they get to the park they are treated like royalty. Signs, ballcaps, jerseys & momentos.

 

2. Have a marketing contest with your Mariner fans. On their blog have them decide what would be the greatest marketing idea ever. The winner would get season tickets and bragging rights about how they helped the Mariner's bring in a bigger audience.
