Early on in his career with the Suns, Bob exhibited a strong commitment to developing both his craft and the skill sets of those around him. Quickly working his way up the ranks as a sales executive, Bob earned the trust of customers, co-workers, executives and ownership alike. And when he transitioned to a management role, he brought that same level of dedication and commitment to the development of those that he managed. Any person aspiring to succeed in the sports and entertainment business would be well advised to seek Bob’s input and advice.

Bob has worked his way through the ranks of minor league hockey, WNBA and NBA to sell and then lead sales campaigns at the highest levels. No matter what he was focused on during our time working together at the Suns and Mercury, he was passionate and thorough in developing the most innovative and efficient process to not only meet a goal, but shatter it. Simply put, Bob has the ability to evaluate and develop talent in the sports industry because he has been the best at every level.

We’ve had the opportunity to work with SBS multiple times with focuses on different areas of our ticket sales business and both training sessions were very well received by our staff.
Most recently we had Adam Vogel in to focus on maximizing our service initiatives and B2B selling. As expected, Adam came in with his wealth of industry knowledge and helped reaffirm our current processes while adding new approaches to various topics.
Adam had a unique way of bringing creative and practical sales approaches to our team, which made it easy to immediately implement following our two-day training session. Our team had nothing but positive things to say about the overall experience and we look forward to working with SBS again in the future.

Bob Hamer is a great mentor of mine and someone I hold in the highest regard. An expert in Ticket Sales, Bob has a strong work ethic for driving revenue while helping grow the careers of those around him. Bob’s management experience includes overseeing group, season ticket, and premium sales teams that exceeded sales goals regardless of team performance. His passion for growing careers coupled with his overall professionalism and vast network throughout the sports industry make him stand out amongst his peers. I was fortunate enough to work for Bob for two years with the Phoenix Suns and am privileged to call him a close friend.
