Factoreal is a powerful omnichannel fan engagement platform that helps sports teams drive fan engagement, retention, and monetization. Its suite of tools enables sports marketers to send personalized and timely communications to their customers, ensuring they remain connected and engaged.

Streamlining Ticket Sales
One of the most significant advantages of integrating Factoreal with SeatGeek is the streamlined ticket sales process. You can send highly targeted and personalized ticket offers to potential customers to increase likelihood of conversions. Creating specific segments during game-day and sending special offers to them can help sell more single-game tickets and reduce unsold inventory. Factoreal can also help in the post-sales process by automating notifications and communication with different ticket buyers based on the type of ticket they have purchased.
Enhancing Fan Engagement
Fan engagement is at the heart of successful sports events. Factoreal’s capabilities empower teams and event organizers to engage with fans on a whole new level. By gathering data on fan preferences and behaviors, they can send personalized messages, event reminders, and updates about their favorite teams or athletes. This, when clubbed with their ticket purchase data, brings a whole new level of personalization and differentiated service offering that teams can now deliver. This strengthens the fans’ emotional connection to the events, and they feel more valued.
Improving Customer Retention
Customer retention is vital for the long-term success of sports teams and events. The Factoreal and SeatGeek integration ensures that ticket purchasers remain engaged even after the event. Automated post-event surveys and follow-up messages can be sent to gather feedback and insights, helping teams and organizers understand their audience better and make necessary improvements for future events.
Data-Driven Decision Making
The integration also provides valuable data analytics and reporting capabilities. Teams and event organizers can gain deep insights into customer behavior, ticket sales, and marketing campaign effectiveness. This data-driven approach allows for informed decision-making and the optimization of future marketing strategies to maximize ticket sales and fan engagement. All this in a single-window experience on Factoreal, without having to marshal multiple tools and data silos.
