About Allied Sports

Allied Sports is a New York-based sports marketing agency that helps modern marketers connect with fans through strategic partnerships and innovative brand activations. With a small but agile go-to-market team, Allied Sports relies on smart tools to identify growth opportunities and stay ahead of industry trends.

The Challenge

Before using Crunchbase, the Allied Sports team struggled to determine which companies were financially viable prospects. Without clear funding or revenue data, it was difficult to prioritize outreach or identify high-potential brands early. While their tech stack offered valuable insights, it lacked the full context of company growth and investment activity.

The Solution

By incorporating Crunchbase into their prospecting process, Allied Sports gained an essential layer of visibility into the market. The team now uses Crunchbase Business to track companies raising new funding rounds, discover emerging unicorns, and uncover hard-to-find details, like revenue and funding trends, that reveal a company’s momentum and potential fit. Crunchbase serves as a trusted source for uncovering growth-stage companies that align with Allied Sports’ lead generation goals.
