Why HubSpot for sports clubs and sports service providers?
Sports clubs and sports providers face particular challenges in marketing and customer management. A lack of data structures, limited human resources and dependence on sporting success make digitalization difficult. HubSpot offers a powerful yet easily accessible solution to overcome these hurdles.
Challenges of marketing automation in the sports sector
- Lack of basic data: Many clubs do not record their data in a structured way, making it difficult to implement targeted marketing campaigns.
- Voluntary structures: Popular sports clubs often lack the personnel and digital expertise needed to successfully integrate modern processes.
- Low budget: Digitalization is often put on the back burner as financial resources flow into sporting success.
- Data silos & organizational hurdles: Non-networked systems prevent efficient communication and make data exchange more difficult.
