The club appear to be doing their best with respect to season tickets, the 6 month payment option is a good one and would help to spread the cost at approx £34 a month for the early bird offer. It's a great deal when compared to the £20 individual match fee.

THE SEASON TICKETS NEED ADVERTISING

My uncle been telling his friends (he and they are over 60) and many of them have said WOW ill get one at that price bargain at just over £6.40 a game.

Not everyone has computers and certainly not all of the elder generations so this needs to go in wakey express/guardian and other local papers,

We should be making a song and dance over the 5th place finish, academy top of league, home playoff, exciting players coming in. To the young and old £25 juniours, £80 odd quid OAP's and Students. And make adults aware of £20 a game so the season ticket price of £160ish is a bargain too.

Im afraid we have to SELL it to the public of wakefield and having the prices hidden in some long article on the website is not going to do it. !!!!!!

PLEASE FOR GOODNESS SAKE ADVERTISE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard adverts for the Catalans game on Ridings FM last week, so anything is possible!

Season ticket offers will only appeal to committed fans who already attend games - they won't attract new fans.
The club's marketing people (person?) have got to be really creative in getting the club and games in people's faces and giving them offers that are too good to miss. Don't ask me how to do that but events like Diversity (I don't know if it broke even or not) pull people in (possibly for the wrong reasons but we have to keep offering good entertainment packages of which the rugby match is part). Also, how about a sliding scale of ticket prices Leeds, Wigan etc full price, less for the likes of Quins, Cats and Celtic or full price tickets for those games - go to two get the third one free etc. Publicity costs money but a cheap option is to leaflet pubs, clubs, shops etc to make sure that the public knows about these deals. And mwidcats is right - celebrate our successes!!!

Mentioned on another thread that casual support will not be buying a season ticket, so the point you raise I understand.

Perhaps a big presence in the city centre in the run up to every home match with a stall, competitions and prizes (tickets for the match) with Daddy Cool, the Cheerleaders and players. Raise a bit of interest in the busiest place in the city, make it seem like the home game is an event rather then just an RL match and you may have a chance that some of market will make their way down to Belle Vue (and Stanley).

Getting into Wakefield college, Thornes Park, Margaret Street (and the Glasshoughton one!) advertising and selling the concessionary ticket prices to people who perhaps will have more disposable income then most (no matter how much they plead poverty!).

Leafleting residential areas with promotions, offers and fixture lists could be an option but as ever the issue is cost. Getting companies to pay for advertising the leaflets with a promise of said leaflets being distributed to 10K (for example) houses may help towards production but then to distribute it may come unstuck.

Oh for the days of the club shop in the city centre....with so many empty units around, you'd think there may be some reciprocal arrangement made with The Ridings and/or the council to make better use of them. Bit of a drag to trail all the way to Belle Vue to browse around the shop on a non-match day!

at the risk of repeating myself, marketing and advertising is the only way forward, us fans chatting between ourselves is useless as are announcements at the game.

we have got a brilliant brand name, we just have got to get the message out there

Seems that Hudds are offering cheaper tickets for their play off game against Catalan shame we didn't do the same.

Maybe ask about getting a little corner in M & S next to where Ted buys his suits.

I think the staff do a decent job in the shop but it should be open later, why wasn't it open during the day on Saturday... I know it opened later bt its just shooting itself in the foot not opening longer hours.

ok heres my thoughts

1.
club shop must be relocated, and art present theres plenty of options, my personal favourite being a deal with an existing town centre sports shop , (even if its jjb) for a corner of their location, from this we base promotions, peiople like us could gwt involved as volunteers to a captive pre xmas audience, in the case of season tickets and shirts. If not this at least rent a unit up to xmas and have all the things people want available, discounted season tickets home and away shirts, naked pictures of players etc etc!

2
Players to be available to these units to sign photos, books, shirts pose for pics etc on rota basis, but any big names ie tronc, newton, millard paraded in town centre, ok nicked his from puffball but its works and earns.

3
Family deals for every games to include season ticket holders, felt for one posrter on here last night when he pointed out it cost 72 quid a game for him to take family, if youe a regular and can prove it (loyalty card anyone???) you get 3 home stamps for example you get 2 free kids tickets for next game, what would it hurt??? in fact maybe a loyalty card scheme anyway ?????

4
nothing, there is noooooooooo fourth thing!

Lots of good ideas coming up on here. As always the question is, "Who will do the donkey work?" Well, 100 volunteers could cover 10,000 houses by doing a hundred each. Volunteers could distribute leaflets in the city centre or take them to a few dozen pubs, clubs etc. Volunteers (if there are enough of them) can make a huge impact. It needs someone to coordinate and organise activity and register the volunteers - that's got to be down to the club - and then the people on here for a start could offer their services! I'd come up from the Midlands and do it if it were organised and run properly.

and some other ideas

1
is there an email marketing scheme, ie you buy online you register you get benefits and newsletters, rather than coming on here and just making it all up?

2
talk to local shops in other town centre, ossett / horbury / normanton etc etc,I really think the club shop location does us no good at all

3
talk to other orgs who target every wmdc postcode periodically about a deal for an insert, wakefield college etc etc

4
Involve our biggesrt asset and best known asset to the public at large, who is.........mr Kear

Agree about club shop location. It's soo much hassle for me to get down to club shop during the week and on match days it's eithier too busy or I lose track of time in pub so only time I ever go in the shop is start of season to get new top and season ticket and odd time to pick up tickets for other games
