How did we create thousands of detailed, qualified fan profiles from one simple CheckinLine competition?
On the first day of the CheckinLine competition, fans were asked 5 ‘predictor questions’, profiling them according to their Australian Football League (AFL) fan archetype.

1051 Hawks fans were profiled according to their Octagon AFL archetype in just one day
(40% were new ‘casual fan’ leads)
Each archetype gives us insight into: - How each fan interacts with the game of
AFL - Media preferences - Community involvement - Social interaction
- What drives their passion for the game - Their overriding values - Demographics
Results
Hawthorn FC are now using this information to: - Increase season ticket sales - Customize fan communications - Acquire new sponsors and develop existing sponsor relationships

Interestingly at a broad level, the thrill of the game and winning (or losing) is not an important driver of fan engagement For these guys it is personal: • A strong desire to show their support for the players and be part of the community (35%) • To be part of a special group, their tribe (33%) • And a love of sport itself (23%)
From an engagement perspective, it’s about making it personal, not letting the team down. Showing fans that they are an important part of the teams fabric

CASE STUDY No.4
Use CheckinLine’s unique “queuing” function to generate new revenue for a stadium
21
ANZ Stadium market tested CheckinLine’s SeatShareTM concept as a new revenue stream for 2014
Campaign Strategy: - Engage existing stadium members through
CheckinLine to concept test a new membership model
- Identify niche market of fans interested in the CheckinLine SeatShare concept (time share for premium seating)
- Generate niche and conduct price sensitivity testing and marketing insight ready for launch
The second-largest stadium in Australia 80,000 seats 40+ major sporting and concert events each year Hosted the 2000 Sydney Olympics CheckinLine Campaign Objective: Generate new revenue from unsold premium seating
22
The Concept “We’d like to introduce you to a new concept for seating arrangements called SeatShare, where you share a block of premium seating with other fans and only use them for the games you want. Your SeatShare membership fee allows you to lock in 2 tickets to a game in the future. CheckinLine will then run an active standby list for each game to allocate the leftover seats not already taken by SeatShare members. If you want to go to a particular game, you'll register for that game and check-in if required (if demand outstrips supply). You will pay a set fee for each seat you use beyond the initial sign-up.”
23
Results - 319 fans registered, 186 engaged, 50% of engaged fans
completed all 5 check-ins
- SeatShare concept tested extremely high on interest and excitement levels
- A niche emerged of NEW ‘casual’ fans with high disposable income & a genuine interest in the concept
- Only 6% of which had any intention of even looking at a traditional stadium offering next year
- ANZ Stadium are working with CheckinLine to roll out a 2014 pilot, using a block of 200 seats to generate over $1M in new revenue

CheckinLine is gamified, engaging and an extremely efficient way to collect one-on-one data from fans
- 66% of all fans who register for a competition will engage in the check-in process
- When they do, 30% will complete ALL the check-ins, regardless of the incentive
- Each check-in generates an average of 4:42 minutes engagement per fan, per check-in
