PHOENIX, AZ – Feb. 26, 2020 – Sports Business Solutions, a full-service business consulting firm in sports, today announced that Zipwhip, the leading provider of Texting for Business, will become the official text messaging provider of Sports Business Solutions.
As its official texting provider, Zipwhip will provide Sports Business Solutions members with educational content and best practices for using text and mobile messaging in the sports sales process. This new educational content will be created and shared within SBS’ sports industry content platform theClubhouse. Zipwhip and Sports Business Solutions will also provide product demonstrations and training for sports teams and properties who currently utilize the sales technology, and for those interested in learning more.
“Selling in sports has changed a lot in the last 10 years,” said Bob Hamer, President & Founder of Sports Business Solutions. “Fewer people are talking on the phone and more business professionals are finding it easier to communicate on email, LinkedIn and text message. We believe Zipwhip is best in class in the business text messaging space, and their results speak for themselves. We’re excited to share their successes in an effort to help more of our clients.”
Zipwhip is the sports industry leader in providing Texting for Business software and API solutions, and works with nearly half of the teams within the “big 5 leagues” (MLB, NFL, NHL, MLS, NBA), and Sports Business Solutions works with more than 140 sports teams and properties throughout North America. Both are leaders and impact players in the sports business industry.
“Partnering with Sports Business Solutions will give us even more credibility in the sports sales industry” said Matthew Bruhn, Sr. Mid-Market Account Executive at Zipwhip. “SBS is everywhere, and everyone knows them in sports. It’s evident they provide a great service to many sports teams and having them endorse our product and help get it into the hands of more teams makes this partnership a no brainer.”
Exclusive content will launch on theClubhouse in March of 2020, but teams interested in incorporating texting can start using Zipwhip right away by contacting Matt Bruhn at mbruhn@zipwhip.com.
Launched in 2014, SBS provides sales and leadership training, higher level strategic consulting, and recruiting services for sports teams and properties throughout North America.
