Athlete ambassadors can add valuable awareness and reach to your organization.
Why Athletes?
Athletes have grown a unique following throughout their sports careers. Each time an athlete reaches a higher level in their sport, they gain new fans- from their high school team to their college team to their pro team or league. This makes them valuable influencers for brands, including brands working in the community.
Athletes are encouraged to regularly give back to their communities, both where they work and where they grew up. Where in the past many athletes founded their own nonprofits, the rise of financial literacy and second career planning has many athletes thinking about partnerships. Athletes are looking for the right organizations to align with and grow their brand outside of sports.
By partnering with an athlete, your organization gains a valuable ally to promote and amplify your messaging to their extensive following and attract the attention of both the casual and loyal fans.
The Solution:
Authentic and sustainable partnerships with professional athletes can raise valuable awareness for your organization as well as open additional opportunities for funding.
Athletes have a uniquely loyal audience that trusts their opinion and authority. The reach athletes have in their local communities makes them ideal ambassadors for increasing visibility and raising funds for your organization.
We work with your team to brainstorm holistic and tangible benefits to help engage athletes to join your cause or further engage athletes already committed.
From brainstorming sessions to implementation and managing results and measurements, our team serves as the liaison between your organization and the athletes to support the partnership. We want to see continued growth of your programs and initiatives, as well as raise awareness of the organization’s mission and overall programming.
“[…] history has proved that athletes can […] create the connections between brand and consumer that contemporary companies consider key to success.”
