Brandin Podziemski: The Rising Star & RENEE ATKINSON LLC’s Commitment to Athlete Empowerment
Portland, OR – October 26, 2023 – Everyone’s talking about Brandin Podziemski, the Golden State Warriors rookie making waves in the NBA. But beyond the impressive stats and highlight-reel plays, there’s a story of dedication, hard work, and a forward-thinking approach to personal branding. And that's where RENEE ATKINSON LLC comes in. You might be asking, "Who is RENEE ATKINSON LLC?" We're a boutique athlete management and personal branding firm based right here in Beaverton, Oregon (2850 SW Cedar Hills Blvd, Ste 327, 97005-1354. You can reach us at 620-480-8236). Basically, we help athletes like Brandin not just succeed on the court, but build a solid foundation for a thriving career off the court too. We’re not just about finding sponsorships; we're about building authentic brands that last. Brandin's Journey: Beyond the Box Score Let’s be real, making it to the NBA is a huge deal. But it’s also a crowded space. Brandin Podziemski isn't just relying on his athletic talent – and believe us, there's plenty of that. He's consciously building a brand that reflects his personality, values, and future aspirations. He’s got that “it” factor - genuine, relatable, and determined. That’s where our work with Brandin really kicks in. We started working with him before the draft, recognizing his potential not just as a player, but as a marketability asset. It wasn't about immediately landing the biggest shoe deal (although that might come!). It was about understanding who Brandin is as a person. What does he care about? What's his story? What makes him, him? We dug deep – exploring his background, his passions, and his goals. We helped him articulate his personal narrative in a way that resonates with fans, potential sponsors, and the media. It’s about crafting a cohesive brand message that’s authentic and consistent. What Does Athlete Branding Actually Mean in 2023? It's not just slapping a logo on a jersey anymore. Today’s athlete branding is a multi-faceted approach that encompasses: Social Media Strategy: Brandin's social media isn’t just highlight reels. We work with him to create engaging content that shows his personality, connects him with fans, and tells his story. Think behind-the-scenes glimpses, charitable work, and authentic interactions. Content Creation: We're helping Brandin develop a library of high-quality content – photos, videos, and written pieces – that can be used across multiple platforms. This isn’t just about pushing products; it’s about establishing him as a thought leader and a compelling personality. Public Relations: Getting Brandin’s story out there in the right way is crucial. We work with media outlets to ensure he’s portrayed accurately and authentically. It's about controlling the narrative and building a positive public image. Partnership Selection: Not all sponsorships are created equal. We help Brandin identify brands that align with his values and that will genuinely enhance his image. It’s about quality over quantity. Personal Website & Digital Presence: In today's digital world, having a central hub for all things Brandin is vital. We’re developing a website that showcases his career, his personality, and his philanthropic endeavors. RENEE ATKINSON LLC: A Different Approach We're not a massive agency with dozens of clients.
