Summary
Rachel Epstein, the newly named chief marketing officer of the National Women's Soccer League, discusses her strategy to make the most of booming interest in women's sports and soccer in particular. Her strategy involves absorbing new fans created by the summer's FIFA World Cup and following the unique pathways to sports fandom often taken by women. She says bigger investments, better athletes and more brand support are critical to growth, but so too is a burgeoning media ecosystem bringing women's sports to the new fan.
