Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, high-school student-athletes are constantly finding different ways to market themselves to collegiate programs across the nation. With
fitness of the 4-and 5-star recruits that garner all the media attention, the far majority of these up-and-coming athletes depend on having a season to showcase their raw talent to scouts. Many of these kids try posting highlights on YouTube and/or across social media but may not get the traction they need. Playbook Athlete is there to help them.
Playbook Athlete is a media marketing company that provides innovative brand exposure across the athletic and academic markets. Their job is to promote high-school level (and at times earlier) student-athletes to colleges using both their Twitter page, which carries over 34,000 followers, and their website.
Last week, I spoke with Playbook Athlete’s Managing Partner, Curtis Gladney, to get a better understanding of what this company’s mission is and what makes them unique in their efforts to help these student-athletes. We also spoke about Playbook Athlete’s very popular #WhyIGrind movement, which incorporates showcasing why these players work the way they do, as well as allowing them to further their development both on the field and in the classroom.
