Make your Athletes
Worth Sponsoring.
The clearinghouse declined about 2,296 deals worth $156.9M
Athletes are pulled in every direction and don’t have time to become a marketing department.
COMMON PROBLEMS THAT KILL DEALSIf the deal is just a way to pay the athlete, the clearinghouse rejects it. There has to be real work behind the money.
The deal
wasn't real.
Paid more than similar athletes get, it gets flagged. The price has to make sense.
The pay was
too high.
Without a clear identity, the athlete is just a name getting paid. That is what the clearinghouse rejects.
No identity,
no deal.
Every athlete has something they can actually use.
OWN YOUR FACE
“Own Your Face” is a system that helps each athlete define a clear, memorable identity, then turns it into practical tools for sponsor fit and content. Athletes make better first-pass decisions while your staff works from one repeatable framework.
