Schedule promotions

[grgmths1433]

When is it best to have promotions at home? And what type giveaways? Are there like a real life stragey?

i have one every homestand....i mix it up which days depending on the team, pitching matchup, etc.....if i have one on the weekend, im giving away the most expensive item which is jerseys....25,000 to be exact....cause i figure more ppl would show up to games on the weekend then weekdays so giving away an expensive item would be a great lure.....i usually give away the not so expensive stuff on weekday games (bats, balls, gloves)...20,000 of them at a time

So you giveaway 25k jerseys away. And the rest 20k, is that correct? I guess I need all the support I can get managing the Stors. 25k jerseys seem high or less you meant 2,500. Are there promotions on Opening Day? Like our first series is with the Rockies at home. I would think scheduling one the last game of the series due to the season just begun. I could be totally wrong tho.

Also can you tell the differences between none promotions vs promotions games. Houston fan base is already decent isn't it? The Minute Maid Stadium is a hostile environment. Right?

no i give away 25,000 jerseys always on the weekend...no, there arent any promotions on Opening Day, but i always have one that Saturday.....it wudd be a great idea to schedule one during Opening Week...why not?

How can you possibly give away 25,000 jerseys at every home weekend game? That is virtually the entire stadium. Logistically the costs would become prohibitive after a few games.

I just read the Yankees Magazine and copy when they have Stadium promotion and have mine in the game on those days and give away something similar.

Usually I only give away 18,000 of each item except on Cap day that says All Guests, on that day I did as many as the game would allow, 40,000.
