“With PlayersVoice, MKTG has found an innovative new partner helping to engage brands with sports fans, moving beyond the live and stadium environment into the 24/7 digital world – giving direct access to content developed and shared by some of the country’s greatest sportspeople.”

“PlayersVoice is unlike anything else in the market. It offers a game-changing opportunity for our clients who aspire to associate themselves with Australia’s elite sportspeople in a completely safe and premium environment”.

PlayersVoice CEO Kerry McCabe said: “Globally, the sports sponsorship sector is changing quickly as rights holders and brands attempt to keep up with fan behaviour.

“When identifying commercial partners, the two imperatives for us were to find a company genuinely committed to driving business outcomes for brands investing into sport, and with existing assets that complement the PlayersVoice offering.

“MKTG has exceptional assets and shares our vision for bringing brands from the sidelines to the emotional centre of all that is great in sport.

“We believe this will prove to be powerful partnership promising to deliver an exceptional end-to-end fan engagement experience for marketers.”
