2027 NIL GTM Playbook FOR Booster AND Local Sponsor

A 60-Minute Athletics Staff Working Session — what is the 2027 NIL GTM playbook for booster and local sponsor outreach CRM at Austin Peay before 2027 offseason roster rebuild

Why Run This Session

Collectives and athletics staff lose what is the 2027 NIL GTM playbook for booster and local sponsor outreach CRM at Austin Peay before 2027 offseason roster rebuild when offers and donor promises live in group texts instead of a shared pipeline the AD and collective GM can inspect before the portal opens.

This session forces each lead to apply the 2027 NIL GTM playbook on one real athlete or donor target—offer tier, disclosure status, and next touch dated—before the next recruiting weekend.

Without a working artifact, portal weeks become panic spending. Donors hear conflicting stories; compliance gaps surface after announcements.

Room rule: No logged offer sheet or donor stage tonight means no new public NIL commitment until the collective president signs off.

What Reps Will Walk Out With

Who Should Be in the Room
