Connect your ticketing, membership and fan data in HubSpot, and market to people based on how they behave
Most sports and entertainment teams have the data, they just cannot use it. Ticketing lives in one system, marketing runs in another, and membership data is somewhere else entirely. We connect it all into HubSpot so your team can segment by attendance, automate campaigns based on ticket behaviour, and prove what your marketing is actually delivering.
Built for sports teams, venues and entertainment organisations that are tired of exporting spreadsheets every time they need to run a campaign. As a Ticketmaster Nexus Partner, Engaging.io is a certified third-party technology provider with access to Ticketmaster’s API and developer network, helping sports and entertainment organisations connect ticketing data into HubSpot with confidence.
The problem
Your ticketing platform, your marketing tools and your venue systems all hold a different piece of the fan story, and none of it is connected.
Ticketing platforms hold the transaction history. Your marketing tools run the campaigns. Membership, merchandise, donations and sponsorship data sit somewhere else entirely. And none of it connects.
So when your team needs to send a post-event email, they export a spreadsheet. When they want to know which fans are at risk of lapsing, they guess. When leadership asks which campaign drove ticket sales last season, there is no clean answer.
Why this matters
When ticketing data and your marketing tools don't connect, campaigns go to the wrong people, and you cannot prove what is working to leadership.
Teams that cannot connect ticketing data send post-event emails to people who did not show up. They promote membership upgrades to people who already hold a premium seat. They lose repeat attendees because follow-up is too slow and too generic. Leadership wants to know which campaigns drove ticket sales and which drove renewals — impossible when your ticketing system and CRM have never spoken.
For multi-brand groups, the problem is compounded. Each venue or production runs its own campaigns in isolation, so there is no shared audience view and no way to build the kind of long-term fan relationship that keeps people coming back season after season.
The solution
We do not just connect your Ticketmaster or Ticketek data to HubSpot. We build the CRM architecture that makes it usable, so your team can segment, automate and prove impact without asking IT for another spreadsheet.
With an integrated solution, your team can segment fans by real attendance history, not just purchase records. They can automate post-event follow-ups that go to the right people, trigger renewal journeys at the right time, and surface VIP or high-value audience segments without a manual export.
We design and build the CRM architecture inside HubSpot that makes this possible, including ticketing data integration, contact data modelling, automated engagement workflows, campaign templates, and the reporting dashboards your leadership team needs.
Every implementation is scoped to your environment: your ticketing platform, your audience model, your team structure and your commercial goals. We do not hand you a generic portal and walk away. We build the system your team can run.

Platform Requirement
Built on HubSpot
This solution runs on HubSpot. HubSpot is the platform; Engaging.io is the sports and entertainment CRM architecture, integrations and audience journeys built on top of it.
If you already use HubSpot, we configure your existing portal. If you are evaluating HubSpot for the first time, we help you select the right license before implementation begins.
For heads of marketing and audience development, HubSpot means less reliance on manual exports, fewer IT requests and campaigns that run on live data. For CMOs and commercial leaders, it means one platform with visibility across every event, brand, venue and season.
Core implementation areas
Every sports and entertainment organisation has a different ticketing environment, audience model and commercial structure. We scope each implementation around your systems, your team and the outcomes you need to deliver.
Create a structured CRM model for fans, patrons, guests, members, donors, sponsors and brands. We map your ticketing data into HubSpot, build the audience data model and establish the reporting foundations your team will rely on
Launch targeted campaigns and journeys based on ticketing behaviour, attendance, membership status and audience type. This includes pre- and post-event communication, renewal and upgrade campaigns, lapsed audience reactivation, and VIP or corporate engagement.

Common questions about Sports and Entertainment CRMs and HubSpot
When your ticketing platform connects to HubSpot, your segments update automatically based on live ticket purchase data, no manual exports required. Your team builds campaign lists based on who bought, who attended, who lapsed, or who holds a specific membership type. The spreadsheet dependency disappears when the systems talk to each other. We build that connection
The answer is a unified contact record in HubSpot that pulls from all three. We design the CRM architecture to map ticketing, membership and transaction data to a single fan profile, so every team member sees the same picture. This typically involves a custom integration between your ticketing platform and HubSpot, combined with a data model built around your audience types
