For a venue marketplace, I’d build the content around local booking intent, not generic sports reach.
A practical starting mix:
- Proof (40%) — 15–30 sec before/after venue setups, busy game nights, testimonials, “what $X gets you” walkthroughs.
- Useful local content (40%) — “3 indoor courts available this weekend,” league/tournament planning checklists, weather backup options, parking/capacity comparisons.
- Personality (20%) — staff picks, local rivalries, light memes tied to actual sports moments. Don’t make memes the strategy.
Every shoot should produce a small batch: one walkthrough reel, 3–5 short clips, a photo/carousel, and a story poll. Get permission from the venue/players first, then reuse the same footage across IG, TikTok, and Shorts with platform-specific hooks.
Most importantly, give each post one measurable next step: check availability, save for later, DM a date/team size, or view a specific venue. Track qualified profile visits → venue-page views → inquiries/bookings by content pillar. After 4 weeks, keep the two angles generating intent and cut the ones generating empty views.
I’d also recruit 3–5 venue managers as recurring collaborators. Their local audiences and real availability updates will usually beat polished brand-only content early on.
