Hello james nice video , can you please give me something a little specific? Like how are reacting out athletes for cooperation with succes ??

[@jamesmaldesign3985]

@@karkelas Hey man - thank you! I’ve never really reached out to individual athletes myself but have worked with sports management companies in the past that manage multiple players/athletes! A lot of that came from interactions on X and Instagram so I’d recommend those two platforms for that 🙌🏻

[@karkelas]

@jamesmaldesign3985 thank you James. Do you know any names of those companies to reach out them ??

[@jamesmaldesign3985]

@ I’ve just had a quick look and there’s: Murdock Sports Group, Route One Sports Management, New Era Global Sports and FullNinety. Some of these could work 👊🏻

[@karkelas]

@jamesmaldesign3985 oh thank you so much , I appreciate this help hand 🙏🏼🙏🏼⚡️⚡️

[@SebastienGuerineau]

if i were to want to work with a professional sports team who do i reach out to?

[@jamesmaldesign3985]

Try to find the design/studio manager of the team on either LinkedIn or Instagram/X and get in touch that way. Or try to connect with designers from the team and just make sure that they are aware of who you are and what sort of work you are able to produce! 👊

[@joaopedrociluzzo3150]

Hey bro, based on your experience, do teams usually hire designers to work in person, or remotely?

[@jamesmaldesign3985]

Hey man, thanks for the question! Since COVID there has definitely been an increase in remote positions but from what I have seen in England, clubs are hiring on a hybrid basis a lot at the moment. Usually 3 days in the office and 2 from home. However, they do use a lot of freelance remote designers for one off projects! Hope this helps 🙌

[@joaopedrociluzzo3150]

​@@jamesmaldesign3985 Thanks bro! I'm from Brazil, so Hybrid/in Person is more difficult. I'll try to find some remote jobs, like a unique project for a team, for example, or some team/company that hiring remotely.
