Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?

 Steve Langton is a 3x OLYMPIC BOBSLEDDER WHO WON TWO BRONZE MEDALS at the 2014 OLYMPIC GAMES IN SOCHI (along with SEVERAL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES throughout his career). Steve is SUPERMAN's doppelgänger; he’s 6'3", 240lbs of solid muscle (see link to Men’s Health “Freaks of Fitness” below) and is known as one of the best overall athletes in the world (and one of the best looking, which never hurts). He’s not only an incredibly talented athlete on and off the ice but a driving force behind Team USA’s success. Steve, who STEPPED AWAY FROM THE SPORT AFTER THE 2014 OLYMPICS, HAS SINCE MADE A ROARING RETURN TO TEAM USA with one goal in mind- bringing home Gold at the upcoming 2018 PyeongChang Olympic Games in Feb. In his FIRST COMPETITION SINCE HE LEFT THE SPORT after Sochi, he WON NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP (July 2017)............ Steve grew up in Boston in a house with 3 BIG athletic boys- his mom had to go food shopping and do laundry every other day! As kids they had the "Langton Family Olympics" and bobsled was his favorite. After a successful collegiate track and field career at Northeastern he was unfulfilled after he graduated and needed another athletic outlet. Bobsled came to mind and the US Bobsled team immediately invited him to a recruitment camp and when they saw his numbers put him right on the U.S. team. The rest, is history......... Steve won TWO Bronze medals in the 2-man and 4-man events at the Sochi Olympics, THE FIRST TIME in 62 YEARS THAT USA HAD WON A MEDAL IN 2-MAN. Steve said "I ACCOMPLISHED MY DREAM, I have two Olympic medals, I'M READY TO RETIRE," and he did (or so he thought, at least). He competed on The Amazing Race, got a “real” job and working for Kohler in Milwaukee and for the past three years silently stood by as he watched the US team struggle a little bit, which was harder on him than he thought it would be. His competitive nature took over and this spring he essentially said "I HAVE ONE MORE GAMES LEFT IN ME, AND I OWE THIS TO ME TEAM. I'M IN."...... So, he moved back to the Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid in April to train full time. NOW, HE'S MORE DETERMINED THAN EVER. Put it this way, Langton is not coming home without two more Olympic medals. He had no reason to come back if they didn't know he could help make that happen. STEVE PUT HIS BUSINESS CAREER ON HOLD FOR NOW AND STEPPED UP TO BE A LEADER WHEN HIS TEAM NEEDED HIM THE MOST, AND SET HIS SIGHTS ON LEADING TEAM USA IN PYEONGCHANG............... Despite the untimely loss of his teammate Steven Holcomb this past spring, Langton pressed forward and he's now more determined than ever to bring home the one thing his friend and teammate didn't have yet but really wanted- an Olympic Gold medal in two man bobsled- in Holcomb's honor (and win another Olympic medal in 4 man, too). .............. Steve is a smart, well-spoken, dedicated, accomplished athlete with a great personality and super-human strength. Not only is Steve a terrific athlete, he’s a terrific human being and role model who embodies the character and spirit of what it means to be an Olympian and represent the USA..................... Steve is an avid OUTDOORSMAN who enjoys hiking, fishing, golf and photography, and has a keen interest in real estate................... ............ http://www.menshealth.com/fitness/meet-the-most-powerful-winter-olympian Pyeonchang 2018 participant

OpenSponsorship Releases World Cup Brand Activation Data as FIFA 2026 Kicks Off

OpenSponsorship Releases World Cup Brand Activation Data as FIFA 2026 Kicks Off

Press Release · New York, NY

The world's largest athlete marketing platform reports 277 million views from soccer creators in the last eight weeks, with 1,552 bookable soccer athletes ready for brand activation across 15+ countries. Clients including Walmart and USA Today are already activating ahead of kickoff.

OpenSponsorship, the world's largest athlete marketing platform backed by Serena Williams and David Blitzer, today released proprietary data showing the scale of the creator opportunity around the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off Thursday, June 11th in North America. With brands including Walmart and USA Today already activating soccer creator campaigns through the platform, OpenSponsorship is positioned as the go-to partner for brands looking to win the biggest sports marketing moment of the decade.

277M

1,552

viral posts over 100K views, just 86 athletes

The platform's soccer roster has generated 277 million views in the last eight weeks alone, with 276 viral posts clearing 100,000 views across just 86 athletes. OpenSponsorship has 1,552 publicly listed and bookable soccer athletes across 15+ countries, including 893 in the United States, alongside athletes from the UK, Mexico, Canada, Spain, Brazil, France, Nigeria, and more.

Brands that can't sign elite players can still reach their audience

With 48 nations competing in the largest World Cup in history, brands face a common challenge: the biggest names are either off limits or out of budget. OpenSponsorship's data shows that mid-tier and creator talent routinely out-reaches their follower counts by 50 to 100x — giving brands access to the same passionate fan audiences at a fraction of the cost of global stars.

“The World Cup is the biggest commercial moment in sports marketing history, and the brands that win it will not be the ones who waited for the tournament to start. Our soccer athletes have already generated 277 million views in the last two months. The audience is engaged, the creators are ready, and the window to activate at the best rates closes when kickoff happens.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorship
Walmart and USA Today: what World Cup activation actually delivers

OpenSponsorship's recent Walmart Soccer Saturday campaign demonstrates what's possible when brands activate the right soccer creators. The campaign — which featured AA9Skillz, Brittany Wilson, Matty Farias, Sean Garnier, and others — generated the following:

11.6M
total campaign views
4.5%
engagement — ~2x industry benchmark

USA Today is also activating soccer creator campaigns through OpenSponsorship ahead of the World Cup, leveraging the platform's roster of 1,552 bookable soccer athletes to reach highly engaged audiences across the US, Canada, and Mexico — the three host nations for the 2026 tournament.

“When creators genuinely love a sport and an event, it shows in the content. The Walmart campaign worked because the athletes were authentic soccer fans first and brand partners second. That authenticity is exactly what drives the kind of engagement numbers brands cannot get from traditional advertising.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorship
The World Cup activation window

OpenSponsorship's data shows a clear opportunity curve for World Cup brand activation. Athletes are available now at pre-tournament rates, with demand and pricing expected to rise sharply once the group stage begins June 11th.

  • Kickoff — June 11: the group stage is the viral window, where trending athletes are still affordable before bidding wars begin.
  • The Final — July 19, MetLife Stadium: the highest-profile moment for brands that have already built creator relationships.

Brands that lock in creator partnerships before the tournament begins benefit from lower rates, more authentic content, and deeper athlete relationships that extend beyond the tournament window. OpenSponsorship's white-glove managed service handles sourcing, contracting, content briefing, delivery, and ROI reporting end to end.
