Outbound ticket-sales team will focus on enhancing fan experience

DURHAM, N.H. The University of New Hampshire Department of Athletics and LEARFIELD Amplify announced a new relationship creating an outbound ticket-sales team dedicated to enhancing the Wildcat fan experience, providing excellent customer service and increasing attendance.

“Adding Amplify’s ticket-sales and marketing expertise to the already successful long-term partnership with LEARFIELD, our multimedia rights holder, is the perfect complement to our overall strategy of generating revenue and improving the experience for our passionate fans and terrific student-athletes,” said UNH Director of Athletics Marty Scarano. “Nothing rivals the atmosphere of a huge crowd on a UNH Gameday, and Amplify will strengthen our department’s efforts going forward to maximize those moments.”

“From the first conversation we had with Marty’s team in Durham, we knew this was a dynamic group of leaders that we wanted to partner with,” said LEARFIELD Amplify Executive Vice President Jake Bye. “As Amplify continues to innovate and grow, partnerships like this remind us of what a privilege it is to be in the always evolving collegiate athletics space. Wildcat fans can expect “best-in-class” customer service and an unrivaled game day experience for years to come. We can’t wait to get to work.”

As part of the deal, Amplify will deploy a full-time sales team that is rooted in the UNH athletics complex and devoted to servicing season ticket members, working with state and local community organizations, and actively prospecting new clients.
