Commercial "Call to Arms" to Edinburgh business community

Following the amazing response from Hearts fans to the administrators plea for a further 3000 season tickets to be purchased, Hearts are now sending out a similar message to the Edinburgh business community to snap up corporate hospitality tickets, sponsorship and advertising at Tynecastle for next season.

David Southern, Hearts Managing Director said, "The response to the season ticket plea has been amazing and will help the club's cash flow over the next three or four months. However, we still need to generate revenue throughout the season to allow the club to prosper and a major factor in that is commercial revenue.

"Our message to businesses across Scotland is 'Welcome to Hearts, we're open for business'. We have some prime advertising positions at Tynecastle which will provide exceptional local, national and global media exposure for businesses. And sponsors and corporate hospitality guests will be part of up to seventeen thousand people next season enjoying some of the best hospitality in the SPFL's most atmospheric stadium.

"I believe we provide a service second to none and I have no doubt any business coming to the Tynecastle on a matchday will leave knowing they've had exceptional value for money."

Scott Cockburn, Managing Director of Buckstone Roofing said, "We take in four or five games a season in the Gorgie suite normally and have always enjoyed the formal yet relaxed atmosphere it provides. We regularly take clients along and whether a Hearts or visiting fan, they come away feeling like they've been well looked after.

"I've been to hospitality suites across the country and can honestly say that for atmosphere and quality of food, the Gorgie Suite is at the top of the tree. We also do a substantial amount of advertising which helps us promote Buckstone Roofing to a wide audience and we get a very good response to this. The coverage of Scottish Football in the local press is excellent and we regularly see our boards via various media outlets.

"The relationship we have with Hearts is excellent and we've had no hesitation in renewing our package for next year already. "
