As part of a multi-year partnership, NMG has partnered with DirecTV to drive sales and awareness of the NFL Sunday Ticket student discount, which offers students a discount of more than 50%, leading into the fall football season each year.
NMG utilized an extensive network of campus bookstores, campus rec centers, and general college event space relationships to generate leads and sales for DirecTV.
