At the conclusion of this week’s AHL Marketing Meetings, presented by ExteNet in Pittsburgh, PA, the Wild was honored as the Sponsorship Sales Department of the Year. Despite Des Moines standing as one of the smaller markets in the AHL, the Wild ranked among the best in overall growth, new and creative sponsorship ideas, as well as client retention. Iowa was also recognized with Team Achievement Awards, showing 15% growth in group ticket sales, over 10% growth in sponsorship sales, and over 550 new season tickets. BECOME A WILD 365 MEMBER TODAY!
