## Resource

Kylee Renouf is the Director of Marketing & Strategic Partnerships at Signature Athletics, a company building one of the most comprehensive ecosystems in youth sports. What started with the #1 lacrosse ball has expanded into custom team gear, sports camps, media, strategic partnerships, and initiatives focused on making youth sports more accessible. In this episode, Kylee shares how Signature approaches marketing by educating and serving parents, coaches, and program directors before promoting products. She explains why trust has become one of the most valuable assets in today's content landscape, how strategic partnerships help reduce costs for youth sports organizations, and why the future belongs to companies that build connected ecosystems rather than standalone products. We also discuss the evolution of youth sports, building a brand through thought leadership, the importance of operational excellence behind great marketing, and Kylee's advice for entrepreneurs on testing ideas, failing fast, and continually improving.
