We’re pleased to announce the launch of our all new Athlete Management tools (formerly known as Sponsorship). With this release we have officially revamped about 90% of the entire site over the past 9 months. This is our most exciting project yet, because it’s the core of our brand service and how our partners efficiently connect with and manage relationships with our huge audience of members on Hookit.com. Below is a summary of the new features to illustrate all the new bells and whistles around our new tools. We look forward to hearing your feedback.
