Lauren Hoselton scored over 20 NIL sponsorship deals as a student-athlete at Ole Miss. She's now a VP at the Grove Collective and helps college athletes at her alma mater get NIL deals. So I told myself to get creative and use my entrepreneurial mindset to make money off NIL. From there, I continued to hustle and use platforms such as LinkedIn and the marketplace Opendorse to get NIL deals. I pitched myself to managers in my college town to secure as many brand deals as possible.
