Within weeks of our engagement with Branded, our platform went viral — a direct outcome of the communications strategy the team developed for Vestible. The press coverage the team secured helped drive investors to our platform, grow our waitlist and build credibility ahead of launch.

Challenge

After earning approval from FINRA and the SEC to begin selling shares of athlete stock on its platform, Vestibule needed an agency with experience in both the sports and finance spaces. Aiming to generate as much awareness for their platform as possible, the company engaged Branded to develop and execute on a communications strategy around its launch.

Strategy

Our account team developed a communications strategy that launched the platform in conjunction with the announcement of its first athlete initial public offering (IPO) for Denver Broncos outside linebacker Baron Browning. We outlined tactics that identified how to secure press both nationally and locally in order to jumpstart the company’s waiting list for the Browning IPO.
