30 JAN 2020 · It’s striking how much the sports business industry can feel like a big family. Just as the relationships in sports business evolve, so do the careers. Whether you’re just starting your career in sports business or you’re searching for a new venture, there are a few tips to keep in mind. 1. There’s not just one path on which to enter the industry. Everybody has their own story of growth and evolution within the sports business industry. 2. You may be in marketing or sales, but you’re really helping people find solutions to their problems. It’s ultimately about making people’s lives easier. 3. Keep in touch with past colleagues. Many times it pays off to call up an old coworker or employer when you’re looking to enter a new vertical (especially one as tight-knit as sports business). Appropriately, in this episode of Inside Sports Business Intelligence, former host Russell Scibetti introduces a new development: the new host of ISBI, Adam Grow! As Russell dives into his new role with the New York Giants, Adam — COO at KORE — will take over the pleasure of interviewing sports business leaders on ISBI. In episode #14, Adam and Russell discuss: - Adam’s journey entering and advancing within the sports business space. - How you can build your career in sports business. - Why ISBI works to tackle real-world challenges for professionals in the industry.

25 JUN 2019 · If your Business Intelligence team is newer, you’re probably still proving its value to your senior leadership. But what if you could get to a point where your team no longer has to convince those executives of the value you can add? What if they were reaching out to you because they know the value that you can provide? How do you even get to that point? Al Guido is President of the 49ers and is CEO of Elevate Sports Ventures, a best-in-class sports and entertainment consultancy. His Business Strategy & Analytics team is now at a point where department heads and even other professional sports teams come to them asking for their help in solving key issues around sales and pricing, fan engagement, operational efficiency and more. So, how did they get there? Well, that’s exactly what Al came on this episode of Inside Sports Business Intelligence to talk about. It's becoming increasingly difficult to make sure that you reach all of your fans, but by taking actionable and relevant inputs from the data to each department, you can create a more efficient, effective, and ultimately more profitable organization.

11 JUN 2019 · In 2017 the Vegas Golden Knights skated their first season. No one expected much. And yet, they made it to the Stanley Cup Finals. The team did their work on the ice. But the off-ice team did theirs, too. Think about trying to sell hockey in the middle of the desert. Challenging, right? Especially when you’re working with a brand new team. But that’s not the only challenge the business teams faced. Vegas is a relatively small local market. But there’s also an abundance of tourism. So, which segment do you go for? And how do you even begin targeting when you don’t have a data set to look at yet? These are just a few of the challenges the team had to overcome. So, how did they do it? That’s what Kris Knief, Director of Business Intelligence for the Knights, came on the latest episode of the Inside Sports Business Intelligence podcast to talk about. By focusing on data storytelling, innovation, and good, old patience, Kris and his team have been able to build a strong local fan base and partnerships that drive value.
