Marketing Should Start NOW
« on: April 27, 2009, 12:29:55 PM »

Assuming Histon get promoted, because it makes it look even better :-)

Our matches next season could be:-

Luton Town
Chester City
Cambridge Utd
AFC Wimbledon
Torquay
York
Oxford Utd
Mansfield Town
Wrexham
Southport
Stevenage 
Kidderminster
Kettering
Crawley Town
Rushden & D'monds
Eastbourne Borough
Ebbsfleet United
Salisbury
Forest Green
Grays Athletic
Barrow
Tamworth
Chelmsford

I think we need to start the marketing now to maximise season ticket sales, this will give people more time to pay for them.

We should be building this season up to get people through the turnstiles, get the newpapers reporting it now, the messenger surely could help us out here wih some good back page headline?

What a mouthwatering season ahead of us, some HUGE games there.

If it's HUGE ganes you're looking for, why not take in the Mid-Cheshire 'derbies' over next Christmas? ...   Northwich Vs Nantwich     Mmmmmmmmmmm!  :D

Agreed Jenga...I do think we fall down a little on the marketing sometimes (part time/volunteers allowed for..not a criticsm etc etc)

For example, I reckon our admission will be the cheapest in the league next year.

We should shout this from the rooftops.

Of any list.

Tamworth bottom? Sounds like a nasty ailment.

I would have thought that that is the intention of having the fans forum tomorrow night to encourage us all to raise more funds and help to market the club.

There is signs outside the ground (the ones which usually show next home game etc) which have the season ticket prices on them with the discounts shown if you buy during pre season, i know its not enough, but its something..

Question for anyone from the club who reads this:

Have the kid's season tickets been advertised in schools or is it intended to do so? I would be inclined to get posters put up in every local school possible and try to get the offer read out in assemblies etc.

There's a real opportunity here, especially with the tickets being as cheap as they are!

That is actually a very good call 1981, as the schools break up in July and the season starts mid August before they return early September. Any such marketing needs to be done NOW!!

Tamworth in the BSP?

Excellent. It doesn't sound too far from here.

Replaces Burton which was the easiest to get to this season. Was home for 5.30.
