START DEVELOPING BUSINESS BY CULTIVATING RELATIONSHIPS
Right away we will assign you a number of national investment groups with hundreds of millions of dollars or more under management to develop and maintain relationships with. Your job is simple; learn their investment parameters and enter them in our national database of private investment demand.
The other relationships you want to immediately cultivate are the senior managers at the top accounting firms, business law firms and banks in your area. There is tremendous synergy between us and those professional service providers. Click below to see blog posts on our website that convey our value proposition to them. A partnership with us can help them bring more value to their customer relationships and make them a driver for their client’s growth rather than just an expensive necessity.
There are many ways to get these relationships up and running, but we’ve cemented many productive partnerships at these venues where we’re in our element.
The Skybox- if you have alumni privileges, you can bring your friends and neighbors to games or you can bring someone with a billion dollar checkbook and spend a few hours asking him about where he wants to spend it.
The Golf Course- another great way to spend hours getting to know someone you can do business with.
The Sports Bar- We host power gatherings at sports bars wrapped around sporting events. Monday night football is a great example. We invite the people we want to do business with to enjoy camaraderie and pitch our services in a fun and low pressure environment.

UNDERSTAND AND BUY INTO THE PLAN
We are rolling out all over North America
We have created a platform for retired professional athletes that amortizes the hard work and sacrifice of their sports career into real income opportunities and post career fulfillment and job satisfaction. Here’s our plan, step by step:
STEP 1: UNDERSTAND WHAT DRIVES BUSINESS SUCCESS
If you are a football team and you can’t block and tackle, you can’t win. If you are a hockey team and you can’t skate, you can’t win. The business world has it’s fundamentals too.
Our operations are completely aligned with the fundamentals of business success.
SUPPLY AND DEMAND
There is a never ending supply of companies looking for the services we provide and there is never ending demand from investors looking for those companies to invest in.
RISK AND REWARD
Although we have generated millions of dollars we risk very little other than our time.
CREATION OF VALUE
Our unique ability to penetrate organizations brings great value to those who can use our connectivity.
STEP 2: ADOPT BUSINESS MODELS THAT PLAY TO OUR STRENGTHS
To make real money you need real business models wrapped around products and services that are in high demand and you must be able to deliver them more efficiently than your competitors. There are lucrative industries we are perfectly positioned to dominate.
The business models you see below require very little capital investment, and in relation to the negligible risk the rewards are inordinately high.
Mergers and Acquisitions
There are thousands of private investment groups in the country and collectively they have over a trillion dollars of “dry powder”, or investable cash. Although every one of these groups have millions and/or billions of dollars under management, for all they do have, their executives are still nameless faceless suits to the owners of the companies they would like to buy. Very hard for them to get in touch with he people they want to shower with cash.
For us, it’s much easier. When a well known local sports hero makes the initial overture it is almost always well received, and the investors are more than happy to pay us for the introductions.
Sometimes we represent the investor groups, sometime we represent the sellers, and sometimes we independently sponsor a deal and act in our own interests. The companies we deal with frequently have revenues of several hundred million dollars or more. We are not playing in the minor leagues. The fees we generate usually run well into the six figures and we are now competing for seven figure fees.
STEP 3: RECRUIT CONTINUOUSLY
We’ve talked a lot about the unique components of our network. Every time we add a member we become more effective.
STEP 4: ESTABLISH A PRESENCE IN EVERY MAJOR LEAGUE MARKET
There are fifty cities in North America with at least one team in the “Big 4” of pro sports, and we are building our own team in every one of them. It is our goal to be the dominant business influencers in every market by bringing relationship-based value to the most influential people in the city. Every one of these markets will be a lucrative profit center. Every one of these markets has companies looking to acquire companies, companies looking for an exit strategy, and companies that can use our sales channels.
Every one of these markets is a unique ecosystem, and every one will become a profit center for us. Professional athletes are the most recognizable members of every one of these communities, and our ability to aggregate supply and demand in any one of them is powerful. When we link these individual markets to each other in our national database in real time, we become exponentially more powerful in each one of them. A good idea or an effective product or service being launched in any city can quickly me brought to the other 49.
Every major league market has its submarkets, and the value propositions are the same. Business in the secondary markets flow through and are considered a part of their respective major league market.
STEP 5: PROMOTE RELENTLESSLY AND BUILD THE BRAND
We build the platform in two ways:
- Using LinkedIN, Facebook, Twitter and email to deliver our value propositions with website articles, event calendars, and testimonials. We develop the material in-house, share it with the members, and they share it with the world.
- By cultivating relationships instead of transactions. We help a company at any stage of their existence. When you deliver what people want and need instead of what serves your own needs, people appreciate it and remember you.
STEP 6: MENTORSHIP, EDUCATION AND SUPPORT
If you played in the NFL, you probably did wind sprints and grass drills until you puked. If you played in the NHL, you probably endured a lot of ten hour bus rides on your way up to the show. If you played on the PGA tour, you undoubtedly spent thousands of hours on the practice tee and putting green.
But you didn’t get there yourself. You had coaches that pushed you, held you accountable and made you better. We will support you, train you and help you maximize your experience. Once you’re comfortable, we’ll expect you to mentor others like a veteran player on your old teams.
