Bobby Bragan Youth Foundation Night
June 23rd 2008
The Fort Worth Cats hosted the annual Bobby Bragan Youth Foundation Night last month and a crowd of 5,071 celebrated the event, which honors deserving eighth-grade students with scholarships.
Fans were able to reserve tickets in blocks of 20, 50, or 100 at $5 per ticket (nearly 50-percent off regular prices).
Fans received various benefits based on the number of tickets they purchased. For $100 (20 tickets), fans had their name listed in the game program; for $250 (50 tickets), fans also had their name featured on the scoreboard and received an exclusive invitation for them and three guests to a pre-game dinner in the party tent with special celebrity guests; and for $500 (100 tickets), fans also received a baseball signed that night by Bobby Bragan, Maury Wills, and other Cats greats.

The summer and fall seasons are the seasons for fairs and festivals, and the Utah State Fair is offering a neat Family Value Day where youth ages 12 and under are admitted free (which could also be an opportunity to tie in a sponsor to underwrite tickets) and adults get in for the youth price.
The adults receiving the youth price on family value days is a great strategy for offering families a discount. (more…)

Selling the Upgrade
August 6th 2007
While traveling on business, and depending on the airline I choose, I’m either offered a complimentary upgrade based on mileage accumulated, or I’m offered the opportunity to pay an additional fee to upgrade.
The upgrade is presented via the computer, the check-in kiosk, at the check-in ticket counter, and if premium seats are still unsold prior to the flight, passengers are greeted at the gate with a public address announcement inviting passengers to purchase a seat upgrade. (more…)
