The Santa Clara Broncos are pleased to announce their partnership with The Aspire Group, one of the leading providers in sports revenue enhancement, to build an on-campus operation that will be charged with selling and servicing all ticketed Bronco sports. Beginning July 2015, the Santa Clara Fan Relationship Management Center (FRMC) will be fully operational with a Manager and Sales Consultant, both offering Bronco fans with a unique customer service experience.
“As we improve our fan engagement and enhance our community outreach, The Aspire Group will be a valuable partner to help us achieve the sales and service objectives that we have set for our ticketing operations,” said Santa Clara Interim Director of Athletics Jeff Mitchell. “This is the right time to improve our ticketing and customer service efforts, and we’ve got a great teammate in Aspire as we look to provide fans with a quality experience at our venues.”
“The Aspire Group is excited to partner with the Santa Clara University Athletic Department,” stated Bill Duffy, COO of The Aspire Group. “The Broncos have a long and storied history and we look forward to working with them as they return to the top of the West Coast Conference. We are committed to working with the Athletic Department to enhance revenue generation and provide Bronco fans with the best in class service they deserve.”
