Cadbury have successfully utilised partnerships in football to deliver on values such as generosity and kindness.

The Sports Marketeer E4: The game after the game with former Wales striker Robert Earnshaw

Tuesday, November 28, 2023 • Duration 01:02:18

For close to two decades, Robert Earnshaw was the fleet-footed striker with an eye for goal who delighted fans with his instinctive finishing and acrobatic celebrations.
Earning 59 caps for Wales along the way, Rob had a far reaching and fulfilling career, with spells at clubs including Norwich City, Nottingham Forest, Toronto FC and Cardiff City, where he came through the ranks from youth level.
Pub quiz fans might know that Rob is the only footballer to have scored a hat-trick in the Premier League, all three football league levels, the FA Cup, the League Cup and at international level.

After retiring as a player in 2016, the Zambia-born forward, tried a spell in coaching before opting for a career in broadcasting.

I caught up with Rob to talk about the decisions he made after hanging up his boots and what it takes to shape a career in broadcasting today.
Passionate about the game and knowledgable, Rob also shared his perspective on a host of issues, from racism directed at players, to the best way for footballers to approach social media, to sharing his view on why Gareth Bale did not receive the adoration of Real Madrid fans.

For Wales supporters, Earnshaw offers reasons to be optimistic, ahead of the UEFA Euro 2024 play-offs.

The Sports Marketeer E3: Inside football's fan-powered content revolution with Joel Beya

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, September 18, 2023 • Duration 01:04:56

Football content is evolving all the time and the last two decades has seen a huge shift in how fans are able to access information about the club they support and engage with other supporters online. Through mastering digital platforms including YouTube, Instagram and TikTok a whole new generation of voices have emerged around the game, giving fans the impassioned and entertaining content they want. Many of these new digital presenters grew their audiences the hard way, testing different formats, filming outside stadiums for hours and struggling to meaningfully generate revenue. Joel Beya is one of the best examples of someone who is thriving in this new football content eco-system, as the established platforms play catch-up and adapt their output to resonate with Gen Z fans. Through a combination of hard work, persistence and a great instinct for what fans want, Joel grew his channel Cheeky Sport and has since gone on to become one of the most in-demand content creators in football working with brands including Nike, Google, Gillette, Budweiser and Adidas. Today, Joel works closely with Rio Ferdinand as part of the former Manchester United star’s FIVE platform to create memorable and entertaining digital content. He’s also a board member of the Football Writers’ Association (FWA), working with the industry body on a range of initiatives around creating more opportunities in the sector for young people in addition to driving the FWA’s digital strategy. Joel and I talked about a range of subjects including his journey, the moment he realised that he could make a living out of his passion for football, working with and earning the trust of Rio Ferdinand, why fan channels deserve more respect and his love for Arsenal FC.

Season 1

Wednesday, July 12, 2023 • Duration 52:40

Welcome to the very first episode of The Sports Marketeer podcast.

My name is Amar Singh and I am in the business of sports marketing.
I work for an agency called MKTG Sports + Entertainment as SVP for Content and Comms, helping some of the world’s biggest brands activate their partnerships in sport. I’m also professor for the Football Business Academy, teaching masters students principles of marketing and content strategy in the context of working in the football industry.
As such, I am constantly learning myself and on the look out for the trends and influential voices that are shaping this sector. I write about those shifting trends in my newsletter which you can find on Substack - it’s also called The Sports Marketeer.
One voice in the marketing industry who has really stood out to me in recent months is Marcus Collins.
Marcus is head of strategy at Wieden + Kennedy - an agency with a huge reputation for culturally impactful work and one which can boast none other than Nike as its first client.

Marcus is an award winning marketeer, with an incredible body of work behind him. He is an expert in helping brands connect with and engage with cultural movements.

From running Beyonce’s digital strategy to launching the Brooklyn Nets to successfully pitching the Made in America festival to Budweiser, Marcus is the guy behind some truly famous campaigns over the last 15 years.

Marcus’s book For The Culture is essential reading for any marketing professional keen to better understand how to unlock the power of culture.

With the 50th anniversary of hip hop this year, I caught up with Marcus to explore hip hop’s contribution to sports marketing but our conversation spanned a host of other topics.
