RE: LA Tech is doing a Toys for Tickets promo - uabblazer2012 - 11-20-2022 11:49 PM We are pretty much doing the same thing for the USA game. Ten dollar tickets if you donate a teddy bear - get to even throw it on court at halftime.

Fixed RE: LA Tech is doing a Toys for Tickets promo - ATTALLABLAZE - 11-21-2022 08:36 AM Meanwhile we are doing a great job of marketing to folks that already have tickets. Perhaps we should target folks that do not have tickets, corporations, youth groups, schools, etc......

I found out about it & got the teddy bear with the most green & gold I could find on it. The person who got their teddy bear closest to the center of the half court circle won a prize.

It should be free or $5 considering we are playing a DIII team. https://twitter.com/UAB_Athletics/status/1594730719959748608 Quote:This week in athletics brought to you by RE: LA Tech is doing a Toys for Tickets promo - C-Finder - 11-24-2022 01:18 AM Squadrons are doing nonperishable items for tickets this weekend Squadrons Twitter RE: LA Tech is doing a Toys for Tickets promo - ATTALLABLAZE - 11-24-2022 10:01 AM Squadron has done more to try and sell tickets to the general public that UAB has but hey, UAB is still working me to buy tickets to which I already have.......

Yep, it's frustrating when Squadron will have cheaper ticket deals and giveaways as a professional GLeague team than a mid major team that is killing it so far. I noticed we hired a new Associate AD for Fan Engagement & Marketing earlier this year, but haven't seen them do anything new or engaging so far... RE: LA Tech is doing a Toys for Tickets promo - ATTALLABLAZE - 11-24-2022 10:13 AM They will only do as much as they are allowed. We are hiring folks at the bottom of the pay scale because our AD is going cheap. I am also hearing more cuts to marketing and an increase in ticket costs across the board coming. I hope these new hires are home runs but if they are they will be gone because our AD won't compensate them. This is an area where we must improve. This is why so many administrative things are slipping through the cracks.

You end up on someone else’s plate Yeah for an AD that aspires to be a P5 AD in the future, this is not a good look. Yeah the AK and Dunn hires are great, but what is he doing to spread the word about UAB athletics to non alumni and season ticket holders.

Seems like our marketing dept should understand the definition of insanity & take the long standing marketing campaign & toss it in the trash, have a meeting with people with fresh ideas & do something completely different. There’s nothing about our marketing campaigns that have excites me for a long time.

I'm sure she's great but she came from a DII school as well. Not really a homerun hire. DII to future AAC school is quite the jump.
