INFLCR’s Jim Cavale and Icon Source’s Chase Garrett sit down with AthleticDirectorU to give their thoughts on how the first month of NIL went, lay out best practices for student-athletes and schools, and what schools can do to best maximize student-athletes’ NIL opportunities. "But I think there's this misconception by student athletes, maybe even by administrators and others that it's easy and it's not, it's a business. As a guy who's always been an entrepreneur since college I can tell you first hand, business is hard," Cavale says.

It is official college athletes in certain states are allowed to profit off their Name, Image and Likeness. Some big names have already announced deals but most student athletes need help building their brands into something they can profit from that’s where the INFLCR app comes in. Entrepreneur Jim Cavale created an app in 2017 that assists college athletes in building their personal brands. Quicktake’s Vanessa Perdomo spoke with Jim about how he works with athletic departments and the future of NIL.
