How did a Psychology degree from Indiana University turn into a successful sports marketing agency? Mark Mayfield is the President of Mayfield Sports, but that was not always the plan.

Mark was the Director of Sales and Marketing at a resort in Wisconsin when he found out Gilbert Brown was coming in to stay at the resort. Being a sports fan, Mark took the opportunity to eat breakfast with Gilbert.

"We had breakfast several days in a row while he was staying at the resort each morning," Mayfield said. "At the end of his stay, I told him I'm really good at sales and marketing, and he replied and said he needed a website."

Brown was retired and needed a site to help with event bookings and signings. Mark built the site and was returning calls during his breaks and lunch hour at his day job at the resort. He then used his vacation days to do events with Brown in Green Bay. They also started going to Packers home games to attend autograph events.

For six years, Mayfield worked at the resort while also managing Browns' bookings and marketing. During that time, he was also introduced to several of Browns' teammates like: HOF LeRoy Butler, Santana Dotson, Dorsey Levens and William Henderson to name a few. Since then, Mayfield Sports has experienced tremendous growth with current roster NFL players, NFL Hall of Fame players, NBA, MLB and NHL bookings. Needless to say it has given Mark Mayfield once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.

What do you attribute your success thus far? Mayfield replied, "Building relationships not only with the athlete but also other agencies, agents and business partners is very important. All the details and work in advance builds seem less events and success. It is also very important to have a great team around you. I am fortunate to have several people around me that possess a different expertise than I do but all attribute to the success of the team."

"I've had the luxury of doing some pretty cool stuff, Mayfield said. " The first time that I went to Lambeau Field, Gilbert invited me to go, and he introduced me to seven or eight guys from the Super Bowl 31 team. That was eye-opening and humbling."

During the last several years I asked about Mayfield's journey. "I've had the luxury of meeting players and athletes that you would never dream of meeting during my travels. I've met Kareem, Dr. J, Reggie Jackson, Giannis, Joe Namath, Jim Brown, Ray Lewis, Charles Woodson,  and Carl Lewis to a name just a few. Travels include: Super Bowls, Pro Football of Fame, Indy 500, NFL games home/away, college championships, PGA events, Ryder Cups and numerous autograph conventions across the country. I am very very lucky as a sports fan." Mayfield said.

What's Next for Mark Mayfield & Mayfield Sports

Mayfield said In the last six months, he's had the opportunity to change the dynamic of the agency. At the core, Mayfield Sports is a sports marketing booking agency. He said he wants to take the portfolio of clients he has and push out of his comfort zone. He wants to be able to use the network he has built to take calls and find athletes for events for those who are looking. MSM specializes in athlete appearances, endorsements, social media activation and autograph events. Mayfield has also added consulting to his toolbox and looks forward to building that part of the business as well.

Mayfield Sports started as Packers legends agency in Wisconsin. "I am very thankful for Gilbert Brown as a good friend and my first client!" Mark Mayfield has built a network that will play a great role in even more growth of the agency in the near future across the country.

From eating breakfast with Gilbert Brown to running a successful sports marketing agency, Mark Mayfield has come a long way. He takes nothing for granted and earns it every day as he looks to take his business to even greater heights.

In the past 15 years, it has not been often when Aaron Rodgers has not been on the field leading the Green Bay Packers offense. Unfortunately, Sunday night proved to be one of those rare instances in which the four-time MVP and future Hall of Famer was unable to finish the game. A rib injury and concern over damage to his internal organs forced Rodgers from the game. While it is never a good thing to see any player go down with an injury, it is even more concerning when it is the franchise player. Fortunately for the Packers, Jordan Love stepped in and dazzled fans, teammates, and the Eagles’ defense with his play.

Jordan Love versus the Eagles

2020 NFL draft pick Jordan Love entered the game midway through the third quarter. He promptly marched the Packers downfield on a scoring drive that was capped with a Christian Watson touchdown reception. By the games' conclusion, Love had completed six of his nine passes for 113 passing yards and a touchdown.

Praise for Jordan Love

Although the Packers lost to the Eagles 40-33, Jordan Love’s fantastic play was the talk of social media and news outlets for days. Of course, his Packers teammates were highly complimentary of him, as all good teammates are. Aaron Rodgers even said he felt like, “a proud big brother” watching Love finish the game.

Perhaps, though, some of the highest praise came from Darius Slay, the Pro Bowl defensive back of the Eagles, the very team Love played against. On his own podcast, Slay stated that when Love came in, the Eagles were excited. They expected to shut the young quarterback down quickly. As it turned out, that was not to be the case. Slay said he was very impressed with Love’s play and that “Green Bay has a bright future.” He mentioned how easy it was to see how much Love has learned from Rodgers and that it felt like Rodgers was still in the game with how decisive Love was with his throws.

Now the rest of the NFL finally knows what the Packers organization has seen in Jordan Love. His future is, indeed, very bright.

Mayfield Sports books events with Jordan and always looks forward to working with the ascending quarterback.

Former Green Bay Packers fullback John Kuhn is one of the most recognizable names from the Super Bowl XLV team. After playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers for his rookie season in 2006, the Packers signed him. What followed was a nine-year stint that saw the Packers transition from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers, from a team rebuilding to a Super Bowl champion.

While there are players with better accolades, Kuhn was the workhorse doing all the dirty work asked of him. Whether it was blocking defensive ends in the passing game, taking on linebackers in the run game, or bullying his way for a one-yard first down or score, John Kuhn was as reliable a player as the Packers had.

In his nine seasons with the Packers, Kuhn had 601 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns. He also had 557 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. Kuhn then spent two seasons with the New Orleans Saints at the end of his career. He since returned to Wisconsin and has become a major player in the sports media market.

Green Bay Packers fans can see Kuhn working as a reporter on the sidelines and in the booth before and during Packers games. Additionally, John Kuhn has his own radio show on 97.3 The Game, an outlet of iHeart Milwaukee. This show, “Nine to Noon with John Kuhn” is cohosted by Wisconsin Badgers legend Brian Butch and airs daily. On this platform, Kuhn interviews both current and former Packers players and covers all major Wisconson sports stories.

Mayfield Sports Marketing has been happy to book John Kuhn for past events and looks forward to securing the former player turned media professional in the future.

Bill Huber with Pro Football Focus writes, "Alexander allowed 3-of-5 passing for merely 12 yards in the 30-16 victory over the Falcons. That doesn’t tell the whole story, though. Alexander spent a lot of the game matched on Atlanta’s young star receiver, Calvin Ridley. Ridley, who entered the game leading the NFL in receiving yards per game, didn’t catch a single pass." Jaire said, “I had tunnel vision, I knew what the goal was, I knew what I had to do, and I did it. It’s no surprise to me,” Alexander said.
