FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Indianapolis Indians choose Qtego as official text and auction provider

Fans of the Indianapolis Indians can experience new ways to connect at Victory Field with in-field and out-of-park promotions by using their cell phones. Specifically, fans will be able to text for more information, join prize giveaways and participate in auctions all powered by Qtego Marketing Solutions, Inc.
The new connectivity is the result of a partnership with the Indianapolis Indians. Qtego, an Indianapolis-based company powers some of the largest galas and silent auctions using its patent- pending technology, allowing the user to place bids, be notified when outbid and check the status of their item, all while using mobile text messages.
“Qtego has made quite an impression within the silent auction community for being the best at providing cutting-edge technology and knowledgeable service in an easy to use platform,” said Joel Zawacki, director of corporate partnerships for the Indianapolis Indians. “We feel assured knowing that Qtego serves as our official text and auction provider.”
Last month, Qtego aided in the pink jersey silent auction that raised more than $3,000 for the Community Health Network Foundation, Breast Cancer Fund. Click here for video
“With over 200 bids placed using our cell phone bidding technology, all 30 jerseys were won,” said Brad Benge, co-founder of Qtego. “We hope to bring extra entertainment value to each game, while also raising money for local charities.”
Qtego will use their auction technology in the upcoming camouflage jersey silent auction during the June 25 home game at Victory Field starting at 7:05 p.m. Visitors will be able to view and bid on the jerseys, as the Indians sport the auction items on-field. Proceeds will benefit the National Guard Relief Fund.
Additionally, Qtego will assist the Indians with the Lend a Helping Glove program. Five, large, decorated baseball gloves are on display throughout the Indianapolis community, allowing supporters to use Qtego’s technology to vote on their favorite design. The non-profit receiving the most votes will receive a donation on behalf of the Indianapolis Indians.
