The sports sector is seeing unprecedented growth
because of digital technologies, which have the
ability to bring fans closer together through new
and personalized experiences. However, to take
advantage of this opportunity, digital must
be integrated into every part of the business,
transforming people, processes,
and technology.But for what reasons, digital tra
nsformation is necessary?Without
a doubt, technology has and will continue to disru
pt businesses across all industries, profoundly
altering both the customer experience and the
inner workings of firms. The sports industry
is undergoing rapid transformation,
with digital technology enabling previously
inconceivable development opportunities.

However, in order to take advantage, sports
organizations would have to undergo
a digital makeover. It will not be enough
to simply "do digital" they will need to integrat
e digital into every part of their business,
transforming people, processes, and technology.
Keep in mind when we talk about organizational
restructuring it is not to be taken lightly too
as it would involve time and resources too. But
the only reason organization are willing to
consider organizational overhaul is the immense
potential it holds and that is definitely worth ex
amining. There are four types of
opportunities available. Know more about them
below.

Reach a wider audience with contentFans' lives ar
e being shaped by technology more than ever
before, allowing sports organizations
to offer new, inventive consumer experiences. By
collaborating with broadcasters and new
distribution platforms, you can provide fans with
the experiences they want while also capturing
the audience across many platforms, including
mobile.As more people migrate to live sports
data providers, the rise of the smartphone and
tablet may have contributed to a decline in live
game attendance. The National Football League
(NFL) and Major League Baseball (MLB) both have
lower attendance than in 2007, while attendance
in the National Hockey League (NHL) and the
National Basketball Association (NBA) has
decreased since the 2012-2013 season. At the same
time, over-the-top (OTT) platforms are gaining
traction as a new growth engine While the NFL's
TV ratings have dropped, the number of people
watching games online climbed.

Sports organizations can use digital media
and develop a direct connection with the fans as
well. Collaboration with broadcasters to master
material for several channels is one option,
which opens up a slew of real-time marketing
possibilities. Finally, cross-platform
digital content optimization will help sports
data feed providers to improve their content reach
.

Optimize the fan experienceMany sports fans are
looking for more than just the game they want
exclusive and sharing experiences that technology
can provide. Using immersive technologies like
augmented and virtual reality to offer an
incredibly engaging viewing experience, sports
companies could increase stadium attendance. They
may also boost engagement by tailoring
experiences to individual fan preferences using
loyalty and customer relationship management
data.Encourage sponsors to get involvedFans are
 connecting with media in more ways than ever
beforeaudio consumption, TV viewing, and app
usage all grew between 2014 and
2016. When you combine this with the fact that
sports fans are growing more open to tailored
participation, you have a universe of possibilitie
s. Targeted ads are said to be twice as effective
as non-targeted commercials on average 60 of
millennials would readily volunteer
their data for coupons or promotions, and 71
of customers prefer to see interest tailored ads.
7
Increase revenue by generating new businessesIn
a world dominated by big data, sports companies
can mine fan data to gain a deeper understanding
of their behaviors, preferences,
and demographics, ultimately unlocking new revenue
sources by addressing fans in novel ways, such
as by adding new services to existing offers.
Companies can also apply data and revamp their
core business process and ultimately use data to
solidify partner connections and make
new business models as well.

Transforming the way people workSports
organizations must not only attract digital talent
but also provide ongoing training to
their employees in order to enhance digital capabi
lities. This will enable students to approach
issue resolution from a digital standpoint.The
digitalization of business processesTraditional
business processes are reexamined and realigned
to support the digital capabilities required to cr
eate efficiencies and unleash value
through digital transformation.Adopting
new digital technologiesEnterprise technology
must assist the business, improve operational
efficiencies and communicate more directly with
fans and consumers. Predictive modeling, which
can foresee consumer patterns, and E-commerce
platforms, which can open up new revenue streams
are examples of transformative digital
technology.

The bottom lineStarting along the path of
digital transformation requires a full
understanding of current capabilities as well as
a vision for the future, which will determine how
over the period of time an Organization's
capabilities, its processes would evolve. Sports
organizations would then get used to their
digital presence and over time be ever more
connected to their fans and create personalized
experiences that would help them build a loyal
customer base. This is exactly where Data Sports
Group comes in and can help you provide a
seamless experience as the organization would
then need raw sports data to derive analysis and
deliver that to the platforms for consumption.
