Inside the Business of NCAA Basketball: How Sponsors Actually Make Money
One of Jennifer Raulli's NCAA partner brands skipped the star athlete and signed a team manager to an NIL deal instead, and it became one of their most talked about wins of the year. Why did a school employee end up outperforming a marquee athlete deal? In this episode of The Money Signal: From Main Street to Wall Street, Jennifer Raulli, Senior Director of NCAA Partnerships at Warner Bros. Discovery, explains what NIL (Name, Image and Likeness) actually means for brands working with student athletes, why that team manager campaign generated a bigger return than most player deals, and how NCAA sponsors quietly plan their marketing around a full academic year rather than just March Madness. Raulli also breaks down the difference between measurable media ROI and the harder to quantify halo effect that brands get from associating with the NCAA tournament, why sponsors increasingly care more about conversion than plain brand awareness, and how AI is already changing sports content production inside Warner Bros. Discovery's Atlanta studios. Produced by GLORION MEDIA
