SportsPick is helping venues attract more sports-loving patrons by increasing engagement, facilitating the marketing of what your venue is showing, and keeping patrons returning week after week.
Live sports continue to be big business for pubs, and ensuring that your venue is amplifying the matches you’re broadcasting – and the experience on offer – is crucial in getting people to not only leave their homes, but to pick your pub over others.
SportsPick, the comprehensive live sports platform, is helping power exciting live-sports customer experiences inside venues by integrating across multiple channels, including app, terminals, and web interfaces.
An up-to-date schedule, with less admin
Get in front of more sports fans, without the administrative pain – SportsPick’s automated sports schedule updates put your venue in front of audiences via your website, socials, and on SportsPick’s own website and app.
The SportsPick Guide has been designed to maximise your live sports investment by providing an up-to-date schedule for all sports telecasts in your venue.
The SportsPick system collates all live sports information and tailors a schedule based around your venues broadcast priorities. This information is provided to you in soft copy and displayed on your social media as well your website.
Updated and verified daily, your sports schedule is loaded straight to your website via the SportsPick widget, and you’ll also receive the schedule via email in both PDF and Excel – saving you several hours a week in manual scheduling and posting.
It also allows venue operators to communicate with patrons on their preferred platform, ensuring they never miss a moment of the action. With SportsPick, you’ll have the ability to easily promote your live sports schedules through your website and social media, as well as through the SportsPick in-venue screens.
And for non-regulars? Reach undecided sports fans wanting to know where they can watch their favourite sporting events near them via SportsPick’s own website and app.
“What excites me about the SportsPick Guide, is that it turns every sports broadcast into a marketing opportunity. Beyond saving hours on sports scheduling, it ensures venues are actively promoting it across multiple channels without any extra work from their end,” said Mitchell Nunis, Head of Marketing at Entain Venues.
The tipping competitions locals love
Level up your sports engagement with popular in-venue-focused tipping competitions, with SportsPick funded national prize pools (at no additional cost for SportsPick venues); a complete suite of marketing assets that you can use; and engagement tools like automated emails, designed to keep your patrons coming back week after week.
SportsPick supercharges the local tipping competition favourite, Punters Challenge, with a seasonal championship that offers a lucrative national prize pool.
Local champions don’t just walk away with bragging rights and venue winnings. Weekly victors from participating establishments nationwide earn their ticket to the ultimate showdown, a punters challenge round where they play for the eye-watering championship prize pool that dwarfs any single venue’s offerings.
The current season is on until 18 October, with a national prize pool of $25,000 to play for on 25 October.
If that weren’t enough, SportsPick has tipping comps for well-loved codes or leagues that your punters are invested in. The AFL and NRL tipping leagues currently entering their final phase are hugely popular, with massive $70k national prize pools.
Get ready for the Big Bash League, EPL and NFL tipping comps, which will all get underway shortly, and are great engagement drivers for your venue.
All of these SportsPick tipping comps reduce the admin pain with an automated platform that removes administrative error and load (updating leaderboards, scores, updating players), allowing you to focus on the hospitality.
The tipping comps not only help you engage your regulars, but they also assist your venue in reaching new sports fans via the SportsPick website and app.
“SportsPick is becoming part of a venue operator’s customer acquisition engine. These national prize pools create genuine excitement that drives foot traffic, and an increase in repeat visits during competition seasons,” stated Nunis.
“What we’ve created is a flywheel effect for venue operators.
“The automated scheduling brings in new customers, with the competitions and the lucrative prize pools, give them compelling reasons to choose your venue over the competitor down the street. It’s retention and acquisition in one package.”
