CHALLENGES TSE was approached by the Kalamazoo Wings to oversee an interior renovation of Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo, MI. The technology was antiquated and in poor working condition. No significant upgrades were made since the facility opened in 1974. Along with the facility the Wing's needed an overall franchise renovation. Since the time they opened the facility, the stadium was considered a "true hockey" facility rather than an entertainment facility. The Wings wanted to take the franchise to a brand new direction while revitalizing it in the community. TSE was brought in to oversee the physical plan changes while breathing fresh new life into the organization.

MORE CHALLENGES Individual challenges were met throughout the scope of each part of the renovation. When it came to the facility, the goal was to incorporate a new video board while totally revamping the concourse and concessions. Both the concourse and concessions were old, dark and cramped. The concessions were selling close to the same items at each location.

The video board faced unique limitations due to the existing roof structure, which is very low. In the past, the previous score board would be lowered and carted out of the facility when non-hockey events were being held. The new board would also be hidden from view when needed while being much larger in size. There was also the challenge of no location allowed for a ribbon board. When it came to the Wings franchise, over their 30+ years of existence, they did things consistent but in the old fashion way. They had novel approaches but needed an overhaul of operations to support the facility and to better sell tickets and sponsorship sales. There was also a need for new internal techniques on how

to market and produce content for the new technology.

PHYSICAL PLANT ENHANCEMENTS With the challenges from the existing roof height, TSE brainstormed and designed a structure that could be spun 90 degrees and lifted above the lights allowing for it to be hidden instead of removed from the facility. That allowed the design and purchase of a 40 ft. x 12.5 ft. four sided digital video board, the largest in minor league hockey, with the help of LSI Industries. The board was custom built so that the video can be viewed from all angles of the stadium. The concourse was redesigned with new paint, flooring and lighting, as well as enhanced sound. Digital signage was also placed throughout the concourse for added advertising opportunities and sponsorship revenue. An awning that was previously impeding views was removed to create an overall brighter and open concourse to enhance the fan experience. Along with the concourse, the concessions were opened up with new paint, lighting and flooring. With creative new graphics, a fresh look and taste was put into each individual stand, allowing for new varieties of menu items to be incorporated. Digital menus were also installed in each stand to enhance the ability to sell more and change unique food items for each event. The arena had no available location to place an LED ribbon board. Through creative design and outside the box thinking, LED monitors were placed in each of the 30 vomitoriums, creating a virtual ribbon. This allowed for added advertising revenue and great promotions to be incorporated for unique plays and events. A new production room featuring instant replay was designed to manage the non-stop action of all Wings hockey games as well as other outside revenue generating events. Further enhancements were made by installing JBL Professional speakers and a Clear-Com Wireless System.

Before and After

FRANCHISE MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION IMPROVEMENTS When TSE walked in the door, there was a realization that the Wings needed more than a breath of fresh air, there needed to be a new sense of adrenaline. The structure of the organization was analyzed, dissected and then redesigned to improve the lines of communication. The initial phase began with a 3-day seminar with the Wing’s front office to place a structure of efficiencies. A clear and concise direction was given so that everyone knew what needed to be done, who was going to take care of it, and what time frame these projects needed to be accomplished by. Within the new structure an increased level of ticket sales executives were implemented to create a further reach in the community. New programs were introduced along with ongoing sales training so the staff is generating new sales.

MORE FRANCHISE IMPROVEMENTS

The new organizational structure also consisted of the hiring and training of a new staff to handle the level of show demanded with the new facility renovations. TSE placed an Executive Producer to handle all content for the video displays. A full promotions and production team was hired and trained by TSE. With all the facility renovations, it was important to monetize them so new revenues are generated. A higher level of show was designed and installed to create more sponsorship inventory to sell. Customer service was and is continued to be stressed among the entire Wings Staff, from ushers to the top level executives, so that when the fan enters the parking lot to when the leave for the night, they are receiving the ultimate fan experience.

BENEFITS Fans attending Kalamazoo Wings games and other Wings Stadium events now see a much more advanced show production that includes video elements, increased promotions and higher quality sound. The Kalamazoo Wings have gained higher sponsorship revenues thanks to increased inventory provided by the new video board and all digital signage displays around the facility. The power of digital signage now allows the club to sell multiple opportunities in set locations at premium pricing.

The fans are now incorporated into “The Show” with the inclusion of wireless fan cams for Kiss Cams, fan shots and all other fan contests. Ticket sales for the season have seen an increase of more than 22% after a decline the past five seasons. Overall, the Wings are providing a better experience from the moment the fan hits the parking lot before the game to when they leave for the night and have become a leader in the state of Michigan.

TSE was brought to us as a group that could help dramatically improve and change the game day experience here in Kalamazoo. From the very first meeting with them it was clear they were experts in their field. Since working with them, and after my 35 plus years of engaging a wide range of consultants, TSE stands head and shoulders above the others. TSE stood shoulder

to shoulder with us making sure we could execute what we were taught to do. They were completely dedicated to our success and pushed us to be a better company and a better entertainment venue for our fans. Ron Elenbaas CEO of Greenleaf Hospitality Group, Owners of the Kalama-

zoo Wings

CHALLENGES The Miami Marlins event preparation process had proved to be long and tedious. The team was spending hours preparing their game day scripts and creating multiple printable versions for their operators. Scripts were built as Excel and Word documents calling for redundant copying and pasting to keep consistency across versions. Communication was also chal lenging. Multiple emai ls requesting script edits would fill up the producer’s inbox leading up to and even after the required

deadline. This lead to confusion and improper execution. Because scripts were printed, the Marlins were spending a large sum of money on paper, which was thrown away immediately after each game. When changes needed to made during the game, they had to be radioed to each person and then scribbled on the script documents. This manual process proved to cause errors in proper sponsorship execution.

When sponsorship execution was questioned, the Marlins had to rummage through old scripts or review the game tape, both of which could take hours. Not only were the sponsorship execution requests challenging, but the end of season sponsorship execution reports required unnecessary time and resources. The Marlins knew there had to be a better way to build, organize and execute their game day scripts

and track sponsorship execution. SOLUTION TSE provided the Marlins with an internet-based game management solution, TSE GameTime ScriptPRO. ScriptPRO was implemented into the Marlin’s game production process to streamline the entire game day planning and sponsorship execution flow. The system allows the Marlins to organize all elements of their events throughout the season in one main internet-based database. If changes are required, updates can be made in real-time from any internet driven device. With TSE GameTime ScriptPRO all crew members have the most up-to-date version of the script at their fingertips. The Marlins also implemented the GO LIVE feature as part of. GO LIVE automates

the event script and provides a timestamp function used to ensure sponsorship execution. Proof of performance reports can now be emailed within minutes.

BENEFITS The implementation of TSE GameTime ScriptPRO has resulted in a more efficient event production and execution process at Marlins Park. Script changes run smoother, sponsorship execution is easier and the communication among the production department and sponsorship department is much more efficient. With time saved, and ease of mind that everything is being executed properly, the crew is able to focus on other responsibilities. ScriptPRO’s ability to adapt from day to day also gives the Marlins the flexibility to create a more

dynamic script. Overall, the Marlins are running a much more streamlined “Show!”

Our partnership with TSE has been great. As users of ScriptPRO we couldn’t ask for better support and response...basically they have a killer script writing program that will save so much time. After 15 years in the field, I’m kind of upset I didn’t think of coming up with this type of program! Larry Blocker

CHALLENGES The Vermont Lake Monsters approached TSE prior to the 2012 season. They were already one of the leading teams in the New-York Penn League, however they were in an old ballpark that lacked any current technology. The ballpark was run by the University of Vermont and was limited to what could be done for interior improvements. 2012 would be the first time audio and video infrastructure changes would be made to the existing facility.

TSE was hired to oversee all aspects of the project to get

the most possible within budget. A new video board would be installed along with the controlling software and consulting services needed to maximize revenues. The city was also going through a green movement and wanted to keep the "outdoors" feel of the stadium. The existing structure was made of wood so the high tech board would have to be incorporated without eliminating the rustic feel. With limited space in the production room, there would have to be some shifting to design control systems to fit into the small space.

Since the Lake Monsters did not have a prior video board, TSE would need to consult them on how to sell and monetize while providing new marketing strategies and sponsorship inventory.

SOLUTION TSE designed the video board RFP that was sent to select companies across the country. After multiple rounds and evaluation, LSI Industries was chosen to install a new 27 ft. x 16 ft. video board on the existing wooden structure in left field. Along with the video board, TSE integrated a new digital production room and TSE GameTime ScriptPRO - a game management solution the Lake Monsters use to build, organize and execute their game day scripts and schedules live and in real-time. The production room includes 2 PC’s and 2 monitors that are used to run ScriptPRO’s GO LIVE along with Sound Director to run the audio. In order to maximize the new equipment and create the ultimate fan experience, TSE worked with the Lake Monsters on designing a new show and trained their employees. New promotions and sponsorship inventory was designed into the show to maximize potential revenue from the new equipment.

BENEFITS Fans attending Vermont Lake Monsters games and other Centennial Field events are now experiencing an advanced production with video elements and increased promotions. With the integration of TSE GameTime ScriptPRO, the Lake Monsters are much more streamlined on their preparation and execution from pre-game to post game. Sponsors are now able to receive proof of performances reports in minutes. The proof of performance reports highlight all of the sponsorship’s elements that were

executed throughout the season. By incorporating TSE’s newly designed show, Lake Monster fans are now part of the action throughout the entire game. Overall, the Lake Monsters are providing a better fan experience from the moment the fan drives into the parking lot till they leave the stadium following the game.

After working with TSE on our recent video board project, I cannot imagine working with anyone else in the future. From the beginning planning stages, understanding our budget and ensuring we got the best product for the money, to the implementation of the final project, TSE proved to be an invaluable resource that oversaw this process in a seamless manner.
