August 9 | Posted by GeoffB | Featured Fantasy News
We’d like to introduce you to Mike Kuchera (username: MikeKuchera) who joins FanDuel as our Customer Support Manager. Mike has been involved with the fantasy sports industry since 2006 when he started a fantasy baseball podcast called The Fantasy Man Show. The podcast turned into a website at TheFantasyMan.com and a blog at FantasyBaseballExpress.com and then “The Fantasy Man” brand was born. The Fantasy Man has spent almost 6 years helping beginner and expert fantasy players win their leagues.
In 2009, Mike promoted and helped set player prices for FanLEx.com (Fantasy Leagues Express) which was one of the first daily fantasy game networks on the web. That network closed down but helped pave the way for sites like FanDuel. Mike has competed in over 300+ full season fantasy leagues since 1997 and has participated in many expert leagues over the years including CBS Analyst leagues and Fantasy Sports Magazine along with experts from CBS, Yahoo, ESPN and FOX. Mike has won multiple titles in normal leagues with friends and co-workers along with expert leagues over the years. He puts his estimated win percentage (top 3 finishes) at 40%+ which is stretched over 15 years.
Mike has a Bachelor’s in Sport Management from Flagler College in Florida and a Master’s in Education from Mercy College in NY and has worked for such organizations as the WWE, Under Armour, LPGA, USTA and the New York Knicks with experience in customer service, sales, online marketing and live event marketing. Now, he takes his extreme passion for fantasy sports to improve the user experience here at FanDuel as the Customer Support Manager.
Excellent customer service here at FanDuel is crucial to our success. We want to keep our users happy and provide the best experience in the daily fantasy sports realm. FanDuel has added a tab at the top of the website labeled “Support”. Have a problem, a question or a funding issue? It’s as easy as clicking on the tab and submitting a support ticket. The fastest way to get help is to read and search our FAQ page, which is easily accessible. However, if you can’t find an answer, this is when you would submit a support ticket. The Customer Support Manager will be involved with monitoring the chat box on the home page and assuring that every ticket that comes through is handled quickly and appropriately. Remember, FanDuel is still young and as our user base grows, the FanDuel experience grows. Currently, we have two people dedicated to customer support, Mike and Mark Williams, and we’re working to make this department a success. It takes time and we’re human too, but we’re taking every question, every issue, and every situation to heart to make the experience on FanDuel better for you, the user.
