In this episode, Jeremy Neisser dives into the topic of Flexible Ticket Plans. 

Flex plans are a growing trend in sports ticket sales, allowing fans to purchase a set number of tickets that can be used for any game. 

The pros of flex plans include convenience for fans, affordability, and upfront revenue for teams. 

However, there are also cons, such as the challenge of surpassing previous revenue goals, lack of urgency for fans to use the tickets, and difficulties in tracking ticket usage. To maximize the benefits of flex plans, teams should remind fans to use the tickets, incorporate them into the fan funnel, and limit the number of packages sold.
