What is a
Stadium Revenue Report
? Stadium Revenue Reports are considered sales analysis tools and are used by venue and retail managers to analyze revenues from tickets, food and retail outlets in a sports venue. Some of the main functionality in this type of report is that it displays an easy to understand map of the stadium with hyperlinks to each revenue-generating location. The hyperlinks goes to a second page (not visible in the image below) which contains data like: Ticket sales by seat location, Food & beverage sales by restaurant/outlet (with detailed sales by F&B category), and # of individuals entering each gate. You find an example of this type of report below.
Purpose of
Stadium Revenue Reports Venue Owners use Stadium Revenue Reports to give managers an easy way to analyze the different revenue sources located in the venue. When used as part of good business practices by venue managers and FP&A departments, a stadium owner can improve its revenues and optimize decisions related to venue restaurants and retail locations, and it can reduce the chances that sales are sub-optimized due to lack of insight to location and vendor/outlet performance.
