How To Stand Out From The Crowd And Secure Your First Job In The Football Media Industry
If you're considering, or trying to make a career in the Football Media Industry either as a presenter, reporter, journalist or producer, and can't seem to get a break, there's a good chance I can help you.
Have You Always Wanted To Work In Football?
Probably the most common question I get asked is 'how do I do what you do?'. If this sounds familiar, then you're in the right place. After much demand, I've decided to put together a program to provide some answers.
So here's my story...
When I was ten years old I decided I wanted to be a TV presenter, but teachers told me it was a bad idea. I didn't listen and followed my dream...and I've been doing it for over 20 years, travelling the world presenting and reporting on football.
You can achieve this too!
Just picture this
Imagine being paid to go to football matches and report on football, or to interview your favourite players. This was my dream, and I made it come true. In this program I can show you how I achieved this and how you can learn from my mistakes and experience, so you can achieve your dream job too.
I can help you get into this industry
I've been lucky enough to work as a producer, reporter and presenter for over 20+ years and for some of the world's top sports companies. I've compiled a book full of amazing contacts.
The thing is, I see so many people who want to succeed, but just don't fully understand what it takes and what skills they have to develop to become competitive. It pains me to see so many young people just starting out or those on a change of career, having all the passion but just needing that steer in the right direction.
And this is why I created my 'Football Presenter Academy.'
