In July 2022 I left behind the familiar comfort of Sky Sports to take a leap of faith and launch Click, an agency dedicated to growing creators and brands.Click’s first signing, John Nellis, was an aspiring creator with a modest following of 5,000 YouTube subscribers and no TikTok presence. Recognising his potential, we embarked on a journey to elevate his platform and showcase his unique narrative style.Click secured a partnership with Sky Sports and Barclays in August 2022 to produce a monthly YouTube series celebrating the Women's Super League Player of the Month. This groundbreaking series reinforced our commitment to diversity and inclusivity within the sports media landscape.The 2022 World Cup presented an extraordinary opportunity to propel John Nellis’s career. Through strategic decision making and innovative content creation, we transformed John into the UK and Ireland's most-watched and subscribed football YouTube channel during the tournament. His viewership surpassed that of BBC Sport, ITV and England's official channels combined.Our dedication to John Nellis's success paid dividends in January 2023 when we partnered with Sorare. This collaboration resulted in the creation of captivating branded content featuring world-renowned footballers from AC Milan, Napoli, Villarreal, and Gerard Pique. In less than nine months, John Nellis's YouTube channel surpassed one billion views. This meteoric rise is a testament to our commitment to identifying and growing the next generation of digital storytellers.While humbled by these achievements, we remain focused on our mission to empower aspiring creators and revolutionise the sports media landscape. Click's journey is just beginning, and we are excited to continue shaping the future of digital storytelling.
