A perfect fit for corporate partners that want to reach sports fans through unique, authentic, and emotional content.
In this first step, we talk about objectives, your corporate partner, timeline, operations, and more. Based on this information, we determine who the storytellers should be (athletes, coaches, fans, etc.), what the stories should be about, and more to ensure authenticity and a great partnership alignment.
STEP 02
Landing Page
Next, we create a custom, on-brand abc.officialteamdomain.com landing page that serves as a home to the storytelling content we create. Separating the stories from traditional news content increases corporate brand awareness and makes the content stand out. We drive traffic to the landing page & stories from your team’s main website, social media accounts, and other channels. The landing page is mobile-friendly, equipped with tracking & analytics tools, and more. We manage and update the site.

STEP 03
Written Content
Now, we begin capturing the stories that will be published on the landing page. All of our stories are written from a first-person perspective to give them an unmatched layer of authenticity. In accordance with the assigned staff, we also manage the entire outreach & communication process with each individual athlete, coach, fan, etc. Once a story is completed, we have multiple review processes in place to guarantee brand safety for all parties involved.
Our team creates content in all formats imaginable, including video, photography, and audio content. If you prefer a different format or a combination of multiple forms of media, simply let us know and we will accommodate accordingly.
STEP 04
Social Media Graphics
To help drive traffic to the landing page and stories, we create custom social media graphics for Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for each story. At the start of our partnership, we create a unique social media template that, once approved, will be used for all story graphics moving forward.
