Common Questions

DB Premier is a career advising brand for aspiring sports professionals. We offer the Momentum Shift course program — three self-paced courses covering goal setting, networking, and experience building — plus 1:1 advising for personalized guidance. Everything here is built on real experience inside the industry.

Anyone serious about breaking into sports who wants a structured plan — recent graduates, students, career changers, or anyone who's been trying to get in without clear direction. If you're willing to do the work, this is built for you.

Career Playbook — goal clarity and direction. Pro Connections — networking strategy in the sports industry. Earn Your Minutes — building experience that makes you competitive. Work through them in that order.

AI tools can help you research roles, draft outreach, and prep for interviews — and they're worth using. But they can't build your network or create real experience for you. The sports industry is relationship-driven. Momentum Shift gives you the strategy; AI can support the execution, not replace it.

No. Many people in sports come from business, communications, marketing, and other fields. What matters more is demonstrated interest, relevant experience, and the relationships you've built. A sports management degree helps, but it's not required — and the absence of one isn't a barrier if you're strategic.

It depends on your starting point, target role, and consistency. What's clear is that people with a specific goal, an active network, and relevant experience move significantly faster. Momentum Shift is built to shorten the timeline by removing the guesswork.

Start before you need anything. Reaching out only when you're job hunting is too late — the relationship doesn't exist yet. Be consistent, be specific, and offer value first. Pro Connections covers the full framework with outreach strategies you can apply immediately.

The courses give you the framework — structured content covering the three pillars. Advising goes deeper into your specific situation: your target role, your résumé, your network gaps, and your next steps. Start with the courses. If you want direct feedback on your path, book a free kickoff call.
