Turning your NIL into a Small Business Opportunity
Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) is a hot topic in college sports right now, with many athletes now able to profit from their likeness.
With the recent changes in NCAA rules, college athletes can now earn money through their NIL. This opens up a whole new world of opportunities for student-athletes to monetize their skills and passions outside of their sports.
In this video, I introduce how to turn NIL into a small business opportunity using Business Made Simple's - Small Business Flight School. This isn't a business philosophy course with theories that don't work in the real world. It's a hands-on, 6-month program designed to help small business owners double their revenue with a growth system that works.
You must identify your brand by defining your values, skills, and interests. With a clear understanding of your unique value proposition, you can position yourself in the market and attract potential business partners and sponsors.
Nowadays, having a solid online presence is essential for any small business. Create profiles or pages on social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok, and start sharing engaging and relevant content that reflects your brand's personality.
Networking is vital to any successful small business. Connect with other student-athletes, influencers, and brands in your niche to create partnerships and collaborations that can help you expand your audience and reach.
Consider narrowing down your business focus by finding your niche. For example, if you're passionate about fitness, you can start a YouTube channel or Instagram page to share your workouts, meal plans, and health tips.
Finally, explore different ways to monetize your brand. Consider using platforms like Patreon or OnlyFans to connect directly with fans and offer exclusive content. You can offer services such as coaching, merchandise, or sponsorship deals
In conclusion, turning your NIL into a small business opportunity requires creativity, dedication, and hard work. Whether you're an athlete, influencer, or content creator, the potential for building a successful small business using your NIL is endless. Following these tips and strategies, you can create your brand, grow your online presence, build a network of like-minded individuals, find your niche, and monetize your skills and passions.
