Engaging Sports Fans
with Social Media
Social networking has emerged as a powerful tool for sports teams, leagues and brands to engage fans and generate additional revenues through sponsorships, ticket sales and e-commerce. By leveraging features like social networking, widgets and user-generated videos and photos on your website, you can also create direct relationships with fans and learn valuable information about their behaviors and preferences.
Why Facebook and MySpace Aren't Enough
Sites like MySpace and Facebook are a great way to experiment with social networking, but your fans are eager to interact with your brand directly as well. That's why the most progressive sports teams and leagues are building deep social media experiences into their websites and using the mega-social networks like MySpace and Facebook to drive traffic back to them. Don't miss this critical opportunity.
