1. Company Updates
- More company applications are coming in… and we won’t even announce our marketplace until September 2nd. It will be pandemonium, but we promise to keep listings at a very high quality.
- On the other side, we already have 40 accounts of some of the most influential athletes and reps in sports… the listed companies are already getting insane exposure. You have a head start on company access before we scale, so I’d start connecting with the listed opportunities.
- You will see much larger batches of opportunity deal flow in September, in the meantime we’re handpicking new athlete accounts daily.
2. Product Updates
- We have added product shots alongside logos in the details section, so you can see the brands of companies better. We realize visuals matter.
- “Add minimum investment option”
Here’s my thoughts on this… if a founder really wants you on the cap table they will break the rules of a “minimum investment” but if you guys insist we’ll add it back. I personally think it’s a distraction from the goal of connecting great people to each other.
- Founder introduction video
Definitely in the roadmap… won’t be a priority this month.

PROTEIN INFUSION CRAZE
A huge trend you should be paying attention to…
Not sure there is a group more serious about protein intake than professional athletes. Brands with protein infused 𝒇𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒌 are seeking athletes as business partners at an unprecedented rate.
I break down this trend, as well as other headlines in our latest Athletes & Assets™ episode. We post every Monday morning on all platforms–YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts!
Aaron Rodgers’ Seven-Figure Investment
The platform seeks to provides contact information for professional athletes and agents, and the site was created to improve access to athletes, offering a more streamlined way for organizations to connect with them.
Congrats to another adjacent player in the space that’s saving athletes and their business reps time and adding efficiency! Very positive sign for the arena we’re playing in 🙂
