Founder’s Blog
To say there have been learning curves would be an understatement. I don’t come from a sports background and personally don’t have the deep sector knowledge like other members of the team. Just getting up to speed on global sports is a huge task. The biggest challenge for me though has been learning about how to operate the finance and investor relations side of the business. There is a lot to comprehend. I have found the best approach is to treat these aspects like I would in the customer service realm. Study them, understand their pain and what they are trying to accomplish. Then learn the game.
