Ally Redig, Founder of Athlete Relations, joins Rob Cressy to talk about advice they’d give a college freshman who wants to work in sports. This comes from a recent DM Rob received on Instagram from a listener of the show. Included in the conversation is what they should major in and if that matters, what they should be learning outside of the classroom, why building relationships and your network is so important, and how creating a podcast would be a great idea that would open a ton of new doors. At the end we dig into Ally’s world a bit and talk about the importance of athlete relations and how crucial building trust is.
Your feedback is super important to us. We want to make sure that we deliver value for you and make this the best sports marketing show possible. You can connect with Rob & today’s guest on social media and let us know what you think. What advice would you give a college freshman who wants to work in sports?
