The Ballpark Portside

Getting More Out of Their Sport, Without Doing More

More Sport. Less Work. Better Results.

The Ballpark Portside has always been a cracking spot for live sport - especially if you’re into your NBA and NFL. But earlier this year, the team wanted to cast the net wider. They knew they could pull in a crowd for UFC, AFL, NRL, rugby union, cricket and more - they just needed a better way to get the word out without piling more work on the staff.

They’d been using another sports marketing tool to help plan and promote fixtures, but it didn’t get them in front of fans searching online for where to watch live games - especially on Google or FANZO’s venue finder..

With FANZO, The Ballpark now has all their fixtures automatically advertised, custom-branded assets created weekly, and a presence in front of thousands of fans actively looking for venues just like theirs.

It’s all handled in the background - saving time, improving visibility, and helping more fans discover what The Ballpark has to offer.

What The Ballpark Get From FANZO

  • A profile on the FANZO venue finder - used by thousands of sports fans across Australia each week to find venues showing specific matches
  • Automatic advertising of their upcoming fixtures on their website and FANZO profile
  • Weekly delivery of custom digital assets, fully branded to match the look and feel of their venue
  • A tailored list of everything they can show - based on the sports channels they already subscribe to

All managed by FANZO, working in the background, so the venue team can stay focused on running the bar.

"It’s been a real time saver. We can focus on running the bar and know everything’s ticking away in the background."
Darren, Venue Manager at The Ballpark Portside
