“The Kings are committed to providing an exceptional fan experience through the use of innovative technology and partnerships,” said Sacramento Kings President of Business Operations John Rinehart. “For the past six years, Bigtincan’s Engagement Hub based on ClearSlide has been a game-changer for multiple sales arms of the Kings by enabling an efficient, effective and engaging sales process.”

“We are excited to partner with NBA’s technology leader to showcase how innovation enhances the fan experience starting with prospective buyers,” said Bigtincan Co-founder David Keane. “Together, we are committed to delivering innovations that continually improve the customer experience when engaging with buyers in a digital world.”

Bigtincan is recognized for their leading AI-powered sales enablement automation platform that unifies and automates sales, marketing, and customer service tasks to empower teams to learn faster, sell more and be more productive. Their Engagement Hub, based on ClearSlide, helps salespeople focus on the most promising leads, saves time during the sales cycle, and improves coaching. The result is an efficient digital fan buying experience – removing uncertainty and giving the buyer confidence that they understand their seat accommodations and view. This aspect was crucial when moving into state-of-the-art Golden 1 Center so fans could visualize their new experience within an (at the time) unfinished arena.
