What Minor League Baseball Saying About Hibu

Hibu is helping Minor League Baseball teams score!

Along with helping small to mid-sized businesses across America, Hibu also helps dozens of Minor League Baseball teams drive revenue and increase attendance.

2019 was a very good year for MiLB attendance overall, as more than 41 million fans passed through the turnstiles of the 160 MiLB teams — and Hibu is proud to have partnered with more than a quarter of those teams to help drive those results!

Hibu’s impressive MiLB line-up

Hibu partners with an impressive line-up of MiLB teams using Hibu Display ad campaigns to help drive website traffic, sell tickets and increase attendance. From the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp to the Hartford Yard Goats, the Lakewood Blue Claws to the Rochester Red Wings, and even the Pulaski Yankees and the Salem Red Sox, we worked closely with each team to put together a custom display advertising solution that was tailored to help them achieve their marketing goals.

Hibu’s Display Ads score big!

  • Our display ads worked to drive fans from the sites that they were surfing to the team websites. And with more and more fans spending their time on mobile devices, the click-to-call feature on the ads drove in a lot of phone calls.
  • Hibu display ads also run on Facebook, giving the teams the social presence they need to reach an increasingly social fanbase.
  • We also utilized “pre-roll” video ads. These allowed teams to communicate with their fans through a one-on-one commercial!
     

But most importantly, the overall success our MiLB clients have achieved can be attributed to more than just individual ads working alone. With their ads being shown on the web’s most popular sites as well as on Facebook, each campaign is built to work as a whole campaign (like a team, if you will), each one reinforcing and assisting the other to produce the best results.

Hibu and Minor League Baseball… a great example of the major-league impact you can have with the right team working together.
