Level 1 Hints
Things to Consider: The best chance of success is taking care in selecting the location. Consider the demographics of location and the available infrastructure. Pricing is a critical decision. Awareness of the team among customers is essential. Teams must start building awareness through advertising well before games begin. However, advertising i too early may prove wasteful. Keep the stadium full, so that you can sell stuff at the stadium too. Promotions can help boost attendance.
