    Jeff Eisenberg Interview.Wps

    For this week’s Breaking Into Sports interview, I caught up with longtime baseball and hockey executive Jeff Eisenberg. I first met Jeff about ten years ago. At the time, I was the communications manager for the Nashua Pride baseball team, which was (briefly) the only professional sports team in the state of New Hampshire. Then Jeff arrived as President of the AEG-owned Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League, the top farm club of the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings. Jeff and his front office put together a fantastic game day experience and the Monarchs quickly became the hottest ticket in New Hampshire. In 2004 and again in 2006 the Manchester Monarchs were the top-drawing minor league hockey team in all of North America, surpassing more than 90 other clubs. Prior to joining the Monarchs, the Tennessee native was President of the American Hockey League’s Portland Pirates and held executive level sales positions with the Philadelphia Phillies, Milwaukee Brewers and Buffalo Sabres. In 2009, Jeff Eisenberg resigned from the Monarchs and launched the Eisenberg, Vital & Ryze advertising agency in Manchester, New Hampshire. But in keeping with the theme of the Breaking Into Sports series, I wanted to talk to Jeff about his earliest sports jobs during the pre-boom years of minor league baseball: 12-year old clubhouse boy of the Southern League’s Memphis Blues in 1968 and 23-year old Assistant General Manager of the Eastern League’s Holyoke (MA) Millers in the summer of 1980. Jeff Eisenberg spoke to Fun While It Lasted on November 6 th , 2012.
