I just recorded a short four-minute episode sharing what we’re doing at The Players NIL through our Unlocking Influence Cohort — a program designed to empower student-athletes and business-minded students to take control of their future.

In this episode, I discuss what I’ve learned from students who don’t yet have a LinkedIn profile, and how we’re helping them develop real-life skills that matter far beyond the classroom or the playing field.

Unlocking your influence means recognizing the power you already have — and using it to shape your future through:

1. Personal brand development

2. Storytelling

3. Networking

Our cohort members are changing their lives and defining success on their own terms. Listen in and learn how we’re building the next generation of leaders — one campus at a time.

      Founder

      Welcome. I’m Mark Koesterer, founder of The Players NIL, and I have a deep passion for this work. My background includes a long and extensive relationship with the sporting industry. As a former college athlete, I have first hand experience navigating the collegiate world. As a father of college athletes, I was actively involved with supporting the requirements needed to compete at the highest level, while maintaining focus on broader life goals. As the president and CEO of Sports Studio, I helped build a successful Hollywood sports and entertainment company.

      At Sports Studio, I interacted with athletes, brands, production companies, professional sports leagues, and agents. All of this gave me expert-level experience in digital marketing, branding, production, group licensing, sponsorship, influencer marketing, apparel design and production, and fan engagement.

      It’s ALL of this collective experience that I offer, while bringing you a premier level of service that will help you reach your goals. If you would like to learn how to build your brand and maximize your NIL potential, contact me today.

      The Players NIL is built for YOU.
