For MLS, the Messi Moment is now.

The shocking arrival of soccer's biggest global star signals an unprecedented opportunity for MLS’s long-term growth. Lionel Messi will be in American arenas in just a few weeks!

But what if your franchise isn't on that prized list? Or, even if you are, how will your team capitalize on this once-in-a-lifetime “first” to grow the sport and your brand—to sell more tickets, land more sponsorships, and maximize your audience—around all your other matchups?

How do you take advantage of this singular moment—an unprecedented, seismic, category-defining event—to bring net-new fans to your team? 

Luckily, that just happens to be our specialty. Here's what we've learned from our two decades of work with clients from MLS, NBA, NFL, and the biggest names in the entertainment industry about how to turn a surprise, windfall splash into lasting growth.
