As you know, our event marketing consisted of a tent/inflatable and agents to work the booth to garner leads. We measure results from the leads we garner. For each of the U of H games that we did this at, we garnered 300+ leads at each one. On average with all of our Universities (TCU, SMU, UNT, TT, Baylor, SFA, Texas State, WTAMU, UT, UTEP, and yet to be done TAMU) we are garnering 200 leads per event. What made the event at U of H so successful was the family atmosphere, tailgating area that makes it conducive for people to come and relax prior to the game and the diversity of the students/fans that make pre-game events lively. We appreciate all that you have done and continue to do for State Farm with the little extras that make this partnership premier. - Angela Ward, State Farm-Texas Marketing
