Episode notes

In this episode Chris breaks down one of the most studied sales moments in sports history: how Nike's Sonny Vaccaro walked into a room as the clear underdog and walked out with Michael Jordan's signature. Using scenes from the film Air, Chris unpacks the psyop, the competitor takedown, and the negotiation move that changed the business of sports forever. Plus, a real-world story from a friend that shows exactly how to apply the same tactics in a creative business pitch today.
