Athlete Marketing & Branding Course Testimonials

I highly recommend SMWW's Athlete Branding and Marketing course taught by Kristen Kuliga. This course afforded me the opportunity to learn from the best. In the course, we tackled effective strategies for building sustainable athlete brands, networks, athlete-agent relationships, social media marketing, understanding endorsement deals, the new NIL bill and its impact on athletes, post-career entrepreneur ventures, and more. The best part of the course was NFL legend Doug Flutie stopping in to speak with the class, as he embodies that which we studied, a great athlete brand with a great story.

In a nutshell, taking courses here at SMWW have giving me the opportunity to network with current and future Sports Agents and Sports Business men and women who are already making an impact in the industry. Due to my connection with SMWW, I've connected with a former classmate, who owns an agency, where I started as an Agent Advisor and have been promoted to Senior Vice President of Business Operations. I feel attending SMWW will place women of sports in a greater position to succeed and flourish in a male dominated industry. Thank you so much, SMWW for being the wind beneath my wings. And for showing me, the sky is no longer the limit. Go beyond those limits and soar!

Sports Worldwide Management is a great educational opportunity for individuals that are interested in learning how to break off into the sports industry. I highly recommend that anyone who is interested in working in the sports industry SMWW is certainly the place for you to get the entry level skills that can open the doors with your own ambitions and the wonderful curriculum that Dr.Lashbrook (Founder of SMWW) has put together for you to obtain your dream career in the industry of Sports in many fields offered . I absolutely would recommend to contact SMWW and your on your way to achieve your goals

Extremely pleased with SMWW and the course I completed in Athlete Marketing & Branding. This course was provided in an open and engaging format that allowed me to learn and grow in how I provide mental health support to professional athletes and their families. My instructor was outstanding and the ability to network with an elite group of sports professionals was amazing.

I always looked forward to the video chats. What I liked most was I had a seasoned veteran instructor who knew the ins and outs of the industry. A lot of emphasis was placed on the professional levels but this is something I have very limited experience with. Being in a class with awesome people who truly were passionate about this course was also a blessing.

Professor Lundy provided a crystal-clear picture of my brand strengths and prospective outreach preferences. As a result, I learned what messages, channels, and platforms to use to communicate my brand in an authentic, continuous way.

I came to SMWW just to get a better understanding of how to work with athletes as ambassadors for our company. The knowledge I have gained taking these classes has opened up a lot of new paths for me moving forward.

Thanks to my taking the SMWW course I now represent NFL Players. Everything that SMWW taught was right on and it worked for me. If you have a love for sports and people, I would recommend that you go for it. I was practically computer illiterate. The course and the Agent Advisor Program have pushed me to do things in life that I probably wouldn't have done otherwise. I have made a lot of new friends and I'm excited to see where things can go from here. I want three players next year!"

I loved the class and the ethical compass of Dr. Lashbrook and the staff of SMWW. The class was informative, interactive and fun. The course gave me the basic tools to feel comfortable working with athletes. I would advise this class for anybody with a passion for sports. The cost of the class is minimal compared to knowledge and contacts you will get in return.

It's just a great program. It's the most convenient way to gain an edge in the field of sports agency, & it's effective. Looking back, I would have to say that it was a wise investment.
