ATLANTA – North Dakota State University and
Playfly Aspire announced a revenue generation partnership Thursday, April 3.
Playfly Aspire will establish an on-campus team dedicated to generating new ticket sales, optimizing ticket package renewals, and uncovering incremental donation support for NDSU Athletics. Playfly Aspire will also provide NDSU with best-in-class consulting support to ensure the Bison make data-driven decisions around venue and event enhancements.
"Working with Playfly Aspire is an exciting opportunity for Bison Athletics as we continue to enhance our ticketing operations and fan engagement," said NDSU director of athletics
Matt Larsen. "Their expertise will bring valuable insights and help us enhance the experience for our supporters while strengthening our connection to the Fargo community and beyond."
Playfly Aspire has now partnered with three properties in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. Past conference experience includes successful ticket revenue growth, seat-related and annual fund gift procurement, and the fair market evaluation of new premium inventory.
"The opportunity and the people we'll be locking arms with at NDSU are first class," said Chad Cardinal, senior vice president and head of Playfly Aspire properties. "Earning NDSU leadership's trust is meaningful. Using best practices with a customized, local approach, we will elevate the fan and prospect experience alongside our new Bison teammates. Relationships and results define us, and we take pride in both. We can't wait to connect, grow, and serve our teammates, fans, and community."
