Analysis 2017 Non-Crows Discussion Thread - Part V for Vendetta

[relapse]

Yeah, 6 x $37 = $222.

GA membership + wait list for a reserved seat is $220.

I see that Port are still creating artificial shortages of "reserved seats" to drive the demand

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Says 6 games for the price of 11

So it's bullshit then is it? Trying to scam your own supporters.

So your saying it's cheaper to get an 11 game season membership than to buy 11 individual games?

Unheard of!

And yet you are using that simple strategy in a desperate attempt to sell tickets.

 

[Geoffa32]

Port are like Costco.

Their main marketing strategy is to point out if you buy in bulk the dollar per item is cheaper.

No, it's just advertising. If you bought 11 GA match day tickets, you'd end up paying around $400.

You haven't answered the question

The add is clearly inferring you're getting half price tickets when according to you that's not the case.

So what is it - false advertising or trying to rip your own members off ?

Your ad is what I'm talking about

You are trying to scam your "customers " and since you still have shitloads left I'm amazingly saying your supporters are smarter than your marketing dept !

Trying to scam your own members

Tsk
Tsk

The old "buy one get one free" ain't cutting the mustard no more !
The mere thought of watching 11 of your games makes me feel quite nauseous.

How much do your 3 game members pay? $80?

Would have thought you would be trying to stretch these people to say 5 games @ $120 or 6 games @ $140 to add more stability to your crows numbers.

They got one free with the Advertiser subscription last year


23 Jun. 2017 · Enjoy a 3 home game membership to Port Adelaide when you subscribe to an Advertiser weekend bundle subscription worth $109.

Because the crowds fall away once the 3 game memberships are used up... So would have thought target these people to go to half the games in the season... So not the need to virtually give the tickets away later in the season.

They knew they were in strife early on

Flogging this shit off in June .....

Thomas was explaining the Clubs strategy in pushing 3 game memberships, so more Port supporters can get to see their games, basically a rotation strategy ......this versus the Crows 11 game membership where there's basically a lockout for non Crows Members

This is fine if like the Crows you're selling out AO .......but last time i looked Port weren't ? ....that's the one hole in that strategy

Thomas' talk was pure spin.

Port would prefer sellouts on the back of mostly 11 game members like we do... If they could sell enough.

Can you imagine the Crows reducing their 11 game memberships so we can get more people attending? Same with the Weagles. Would be laughed at.

Thomas called it sampling .....but he assumed weekly sell-outs

He can call it whatever marketing spin term he wants... but the bottom line is you want to guarantee games nearly sold out at the start of the season (money up front), because if your team's form drops off & you have a large group of fairweather supporters, then funny enough history shows the crowds drop off selling lots of 3 game packages.

And this is exactly what happened in 2016

They're dropping 2000 a year on average every year since Adelaide's Oval

They can't hit an average of 38000 without their Showdown included

This year - once the Watts Gloss wears off and Motlop starts to Flop a lot - they'll be struggling to get that !

So the shiny new toy excitement has worn off & we're back to pure footy support

Perhaps that is why Adelaide Oval has spent millions on their upgrade for lighting & sound shows...

NTUA will never sound so good.

 

[Bay62]

so more Port supporters can get to see their games

I’ve heard lots of marketing spin over the years but that one takes the cake!

“We’ve got so many supporters we’ve got to rotate them in short bursts so they can all get a turn to watch the crap”

Haha

You may have missed the point.

I don't think people believe that have moral superiorty based on where they shop, it is based on one is seen as local the other national.

Port - local, Adelaide - national.

My point was more general than just that, but I absolutely believe some people think there is moral superiority by association

 

[Sanders]

No, it's just advertising. If you bought 11 GA match day tickets, you'd end up paying around $400.

Advertising is lying to your customers?
