LA Sparks Partners With KORE Software To Boost Fan Engagement And Enhance CRM Platform

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Three-time WNBA champions LA Sparks today announced they'll be partnering with KORE Software's Ticketing and Fan Engagement™ platform to manage season ticket sales, fan data and analytics.

In the midst of switching ticketing systems, the LA Sparks, one of the WNBA's powerhouse teams with 17 playoff appearances in their 21 completed seasons, needed a way to ensure a seamless transition of data when they begin operating on their new ticketing platform. KORE Software is uniquely capable of merging the fan data from both their old and new systems into a single view.

"I'm thrilled that our Ticket Operations department is continuing to innovate and use technology that elevates our organization and builds upon our company wide strategy to give our fan base an incredible experience," said Christine Simmons, President & Chief Operating Officer of the LA Sparks.

KORE Software's Ticketing and Fan Engagement™ application will greatly enhance the LA Sparks' CRM platform and enable them to conduct a deeper analysis of their fans than ever before. Reports that previously took up to eight hours to produce will be conducted in a matter of minutes.

"KORE is going to help us take the data we've collected to the next level," said Favian Velasco, Director of Operations at the LA Sparks. "We'll also generate reports faster and grow our sales and fan loyalty."

"Improving the operations or another WNBA team is very exciting for us at KORE Software. We have numerous customers from both the WNBA and NBA. Having the Sparks on board will further strengthen the community for all of our customers as we continue to share best practices and elevate the use of data across the industry," mentioned KORE's VP of Fan Data, Brandon Crossley.
