Streamline Your Sign-Up Process by Going Online.

Consumers are accustomed to searching for

products online and making purchases online.

Your camps, clinics and tournaments shouldn’t

be treated any differently.

Allow players to register and pay in one

transaction online at their convenience.

Communicate the Benefits in Your Event Description.

Remember everyone’s favorite radio station –

WIIFM – What’s In It For Me.

Don’t just say “Sign up for Our Sports Camp”.

Why should someone sign up? Will they make

new friends? Develop new skills? Let them know

what’s in it for them.

Share Pictures and Videos.

Show people the value instead of just telling

them about it. Tell a story through pictures and

video of past sports events that show players

having fun.

Setting a savings incentive tied to an expiration

date is a great way to generate early sign-ups.

Set an Early-Bird Price with a Cut-Off Date.

Post About Your Sports Events Everywhere Repeatedly.

Don’t just post about your camp, clinic or tournament

once on Facebook. Post about it at least once a week on

Facebook leading up to the event. And don’t limit your

posts and marketing to one channel only. Post on all

social networks, in online directories, on your website, in

emails.

Event success depends largely on repeat impressions.

Get the word out everywhere possible. Promote across

all channels repeatedly.

Send emails to Past Players.

Your past players are likely to attend other camps,

clinics and tournaments you hold. It’s a smart practice to

let your past players know about your new upcoming

events – and sending them an email is the most direct

way to communicate.

Tools like Event Manager store your past attendee data

and enable you to select on past attendees and send

emails directly through the software.

Set a Seating Capacity.

Scarcity increases demand and compels people

to take action now rather than waiting.

Put a limit on the number of spots available at

your sports event and communicate the limited

availability.

Add an Event Listing to Your Website.

Including your camps, clinics and tournaments on

your website is a great way to show everyone

what’s going on.

Through tools like Member Solutions’ online event

registration software, Event Manager, you can add

a registration home page – or event listing page –

to your website to showcase all your active and

available events.

Set Up Promo Codes.

Setting up promotional savings codes and

sending them to a select group of prospective

players promotes exclusivity and will ultimately

increase event sign-ups.

In tools like Event Manager, you can even set up

activation and expiration dates for promo codes

and set capacities to promo codes to further

drive demand.

Offer a 2-for-1 Special.

Adding a 2-for-1 promotion or a “Buy one, get

the second 50% off” adds value and encourages

multiple sign-ups.

Consider a sibling and/or friend promotion.

Chances are prospective players know a person

or two who would be interested in the camp.

Offer a FREE Gift.

Take a look at your inventory and see what

you have that you could give away. Adding a

free gift to the first x number of sign-ups

sweetens the deal and will help drive early

registrations.

Promote Your Camp Offline.

It’s easy to loose sight of offline techniques

in today’s largely digital world.

Don’t forget to create flyers about your

camps, clinics and tournaments. Partner

with local businesses that will inform their

customers about your event. Mention the

event to everyone you come in contact with.
