Sports Marketing 2.0

Re-thinking sports marketing now that fans are in charge

Hi,

I just recently opened a sportsevent service Urheilutapahtumat.fi. The idea of the service is to help users find events easily serching by for example, date, club, city. No oen has seriusly tried to do anything like this in Finland. I have 2 challenges: 1. How to track users effectively. Need to get 10x more users than I currently have. 2. I need a few big customers to show that there are a few big brands tha belive in this concept. I would appriciate any feedback and ideas. I also want to sell this service to sportsclubs in Finland. This is in my opinion one way for clubs to increase amount of paid tickets. If somebody has some contacts to a brand who might want to advertise in a service like this or introduce a new sportsbrand in Finland don´t hesitate to take contact mats.melen@urheilutapahtumat.fi or call directly at +358-40-7393008.

best regards,
