REACH FOR THE STARS>
MARKET PERCEPTIONS OF “EXPENSIVE” AND “INACCESSIBLE” ATHLETES AND INFLUENCERS
ATHLETES AND INFLUENCERS ARE HUNGRY FOR MORE PAID OPPORTUNITIES
THE PROBLEM>
• Talent signs up, views a billboard of current opportunities, and applies or accepts when the right fit is found.
• No negotiations - what the talent sees they get. If the terms don’t stack up, they don’t apply.
• Non prescriptive - we don’t set price benchmarks as to what athletes need to be paid - we let the marketplace decide.
• PickStar clients often get to choose from a list of star applicants for their promotion.
OUR SOLUTION>
AN ONLINE MARKETPLACE TO BROKER CONNECTIONS BETWEEN ORGANISATIONS/INDIVIDUALS AND TALENT

POWER, CREDIBILITY, REACH AND VALUE
Word of mouth is the best recommendation, and athletes and influencers take this to a whole new level.
Athletes and influencers have the ability to not only put your promotion in front of their hundreds of thousands of fans, but their social media followers are engaged - they will read and be influenced by your message.
There is a massive supply of influencers, but few marketers running influencer campaigns, meaning that the cost of buying an influencer promotion is below its real value (as measured by your ROI) (AdWeek 2015).
Harness “the next big thing” in marketing.
