BE Ready
Empowering athletes for commercial success
Welcome amazing athletes, we’ll be sharing all content, resources and program details with you on this platform.
brand building blocks
This summer, you get to take your brand into your own hands.
The Building Blocks are simple, practical mini-projects that focus on one clear outcome, whether that’s creating better content, building your audience, connecting with businesses, or turning your strengths into new opportunities. You can choose whichever one feels right for you, dive in when it suits you, and come out with something real and usable.
Let’s make this a summer where you grow your brand confidently, as part of the BE Ready program.
Get More Confident and Creative On Socials
If you want to create content more easily and consistently, this is for you. Choose this if you struggle with “what to post” or want ideas that actually feel like you (on any platform).
What you get:
We’ll send you a personalised content library filled with post ideas, prompts and themes tailored to your sport, personality and goals, ready to use immediately.
Grow Your Socials
If your goal is to reach more people, grow your following, or increase engagement, choose this. It’s about smart, simple growth strategies you can apply over time (on any platform).
What you get:
Your personalised Growth Plan built around the three main strategies — consistency, content, and collaboration — plus creative tactics matched to your goals.
Get Sponsored By A Local Business
If you want to start (or strengthen) real-world partnerships with brands, this is your block. Choose it if you’re ready to explore sponsorship outside social media.
What you get:
A Sponsorship Toolkit with a list of 30 potential sponsors, what you can offer them, a Pitch Deck template, pre-written outreach messages and a simple process to follow to reach out!
Get A Social Media Deal
If you want to earn from social media partnerships — even small ones — this is for you. Choose it if you’re active online and want help shaping your offer and approaching brands.
What you get:
A Social Media Sponsorship Toolkit that includes a list of 20 brands you could approach, a Social Media Rates Card template, guidance on pricing, and how to pitch yourself professionally.
Grow Your Profile & Become Known for Something
If you want to stand out, be more memorable, or strengthen your identity as an athlete, choose this. It helps you define “your thing” and make it clear to others. This is especially good for those using LinkedIn.
What you get:
A Profile Builder pack that highlights your niche, messaging, and ideal audience — plus activities to help you shape your story and reputation.
Become a Paid Public Speaker
If you’re interested in speaking at schools, events or business and corporate settings, this block is perfect. Choose it if you want to turn your journey into a talk that earns you money.
What you get:
A Speaker Toolkit including topic ideas that businesses will want, target audiences, your speaker bio, a Speaker Onesheet template and an outline for your signature presentation.
