Hitting Marketing Out of the Park: A Wichita Wind Surge Insider Perspective

October 21, 2021 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

About this event

Katie Woods has spent more than a decade in minor league baseball, but this season was unlike any other. Not only did she move halfway across the country to join the Wichita Wind Surge’s leadership team as the Director of Marketing & Community Engagement, she did so just before the team’s inaugural season in the new Riverfront Stadium. In this session, she’ll recount the challenges and opportunities she faced – including the sometimes daily curveballs thrown at her due to the pandemic. Marketers in any industry can learn from the lessons in multi-channel marketing, relationship-building, community engagement, and adjusting on the fly.
