THE PROBLEM

The Problem. One Platform.

01

Leadership Visibility

Your revenue streams, commercial benchmarks, and market position live in different systems. The unified view you need for every board meeting, every strategic decision, and every budget conversation has to be assembled manually every time.

02

Commercial Blind Spots

Somewhere in your social following, your event attendance, and your digital engagement, a brand executive at exactly the right company is raising their hand. You just don’t know who they are.

03

Hidden Pipeline

Your CRM, ticketing system, and email platform are full of people already engaging with your property. But their personal email is disconnected from their professional identity. You have no way of knowing that the person in row seven is the Head of Partnerships at a brand with a $40M marketing budget.

FRAGMENTED

The Current State

What most sports organizations are running on

Revenue data across 4 disconnected systems

Sponsorship benchmarks assembled manually

No unified view for board meetings

Every deal signal, every prospect score, and every partner health indicator. All continuously updated from your data and CRED's combined intelligence across 50M+ companies and 700M+ contacts. Your team stops searching and starts deciding.

STEP 01

Connect

Unify everything.

200+ data sources bring together your internal systems and external market signals. CRED then matches personal identities to corporate profiles across your interaction database, resolving which fans and ticket buyers work at brands worth calling. Your internal data and CRED’s external intelligence working together so every prospect is warm before your team makes the first call.

Score

Rank every opportunity.

Proprietary scoring models rank every brand, every prospect, and every active partner. Custom models by inventory category. Look-alike modeling against your best partners. Health scores on every active relationship. The right score for the right conversation, not one generic number applied to every opportunity. Every outcome your team records sharpens the next prediction, so the scores get more accurate the longer you use them.

FOR YOUR COMMERCIAL TEAM

Here are the people who actually care about your brand. Ranked by who's most likely to say yes.

Your commercial team doesn't have a prospects problem. They have a prioritization problem. The brands worth calling are buried inside a much larger universe of companies that aren't ready, aren't a fit, or have already been claimed by a competitor. CRED surfaces the ones that matter, scored, ranked, and ready to contact, before your team has made a single cold call.

Four tools your commercial team uses every day. Select one to see how it works.

Customer Health Scores

Know which relationships need attention before the renewal conversation forces your hand. Know which partners are compounding and which are quietly at risk, with enough lead time to intervene. Every active partner scored 0–100. Continuously updated. No manual tracking required.

HOW COMMERCIAL TEAMS USE IT

Three Moments Where CRED Changes the Outcome.

MOMENT 01

Before a Major Pitch

Walk into every sponsor conversation knowing what that brand paid for their last deal, what comparable properties charged, and where your ask sits relative to the market. See which executives on their team have already engaged with your property and what they interacted with. Check the signals that tell you whether they're in an active investment window including recent funding, CMO hire, S1 filing, and marketing budget expansion. Walk into every conversation knowing more than they expect you to know.

End of Quarter Push

Filter scored prospects by brands with recent funding rounds, new CMO hires, or S1 activity declaring growth ambitions. These are the companies in an active investment window right now, not theoretically a good fit, but actively allocating budget. Cross-reference against brands whose current deals are ending this quarter. These are the calls that close before the quarter ends. This is the list your team works when the number needs to move.

FOR AGENCIES

The intelligence infrastructure behind the agencies that compete on data.

Dentsu. UTA. IMG. The agencies building a proprietary data advantage don't ask what reports CRED can make them. They ask what CRED can pipe into what they've already built.

Enrich Your Client Intelligence

Every recommendation your team produces becomes more precise than what your competitors can deliver. CRED adds:

  • Brand fit scoring
  • Audience affinity models
  • Sponsorship predictions across 700M+ contacts and 50M+ companies

Fill Your Own Pipeline

A live new business pipeline, continuously updated with:

  • Brands actively expanding marketing investment
  • CMOs who've just moved
  • Companies with S1 filings before anyone has approached them

Scored, ranked, and broken down by industry, geography, and buying signal. Your team stops starting from scratch every cycle.

Compound Your Data Advantage

The agencies that use CRED pull ahead on two fronts simultaneously:

  • Client recommendations your competitors can't replicate
  • A new business pipeline that doesn't reset every cycle
