Flamengo had the best average audience for the Brazilian Championship in 2024, but the numbers of fan partners do not reflect the strength of the Red and Blacks. Only the seventh club with the largest national base, the club sees the program offering few advantages even to those who live in Rio de Janeiro. Luiz Eduardo Baptista's board, Bap, takes charge with the mission of changing this scenario.
It's worth mentioning that Bap and his peers actually begin to transition between directorships this week. This is because President Rodolfo Landim did not want to advance the process before his inauguration, this Wednesday, in Gávea. Only then will the new management have access to documents, expenses and other internal data to initiate possible changes.
What do Bap think?
Fla currently has a base of 77,577 members. Priority goes to those who pay the most, not necessarily those who attend the most games. For finals and important duels, for example, tickets don't even come in more affordable plans, even if the fan goes to every match of the year.
Bap's plan is to reformulate the concept of Flamengo's membership program. Ideas include making the platform a broad form of customer relations, adding value with discounts on licensed or "CoBranded" products developed by the club, as well as improving the user experience with ease of interaction.
The new management also intends to evaluate the possibility of creating a popular category in the membership. Another measure will be to buy a load of tickets as a visitor to resell on the website itself, better serving members and local fans.
There is a idea of generating benefits for those, for example, who do not benefit from tickets. Transform the program not just into a ticket sales platform, but expand. Many people are members from outside Rio de Janeiro and have little or no opportunity to see the team play in person.
One of the The main objectives set out by the ticket were to enhance Fla's gains in the digital world. Whether with your partner, social media or FlaTV. Bap understands that the club poorly explored the expansion of the brand.
"Flamengo makes very little money in the digital world. Any influencer today who has a million followers makes a reasonable amount of revenue per month. Flamengo has 37 million unique social media followers and does not monetize this. The club does not make any connection between the products it licenses and the associated consumption of its fans or fan members. We have to make this connection. Flamengo has to develop content at home, be like Disney. look at what's in the football department and put it on FlaTV. There are alternatives of what you can and should do with the club that can generate more revenue," said Bap in an interview with the 'UOL' portal on November 5
The idea is also for the club to take advantage of the new stadium to change the plans. This will still be studied more calmly. Bap, his peers and potential partners have been talking about ideas for the program as a whole for 90 days.
"One of the most talked about topics about fan membership is the possibility of having the right to vote. Bap he didn't want to give his opinion on an increase in Flamengo's electoral college. "It's a matter for the partner to decide, I'm not the owner of Flamengo and I'm not more important than anyone else," he said.
This emotional concept of 45 million guys who are, in theory, owners of Flamengo is not what the club's statutes say. Or you have a very good argument. for these 6, 7 thousand members who vote, or this won't change. The renewal of Flamengo's membership over the last 12 years has been incredible. An opinion we have in isolation has little value, even more so when it comes to a subject as sensitive as this.
Bap was one of those responsible for creating the fan partner program at the beginning of Eduardo Bandeira de Mello's administration. He was vice-president of marketing at Flamengo. At the time, he defended the policy of more expensive tickets to encourage the association and also of sending games outside of Rio to raise more money.
