Influencer Marketing and Earning Money on the Extreme and Other Sports

racing

The growing popularity of the subject of extreme sports positively influences the perception of professionals in this field. The sports of risk and adrenaline attract more and more fans. 

The monotony of life, interest in a new sport, making dreams come true, or good material to share with friends are just a few of the many reasons why followers willingly engage in the athlete's profile. The most desirable influencers are those who interweave their profession with earning opportunities on social media. Rare abilities that require a lot of effort, money or time to study mean that not everyone can afford them. It is even more worth monetizing your passion. The question of how to earn money on the extreme is, however, quite unusual, and the answers may differ depending on the influencer's expectations.

We will show you a few examples of athletes who successfully combine their sports and influencer careers.

In the course of his career development, he suffered an injury that forced him to spend most of his time on rehabilitation. During the break from the competition, Wojciech founded a company producing Navia motorboats. His first project, Navia One, won the award for the best debut at the Boat Show in Łódź and the prestigious award of the Machina Design monthly. Today he regularly takes part in a windsurfing course and runs channels where he advises on swimming equipment and techniques.

Krzysztof Hołowczyc

An unusual, competitive rally driver, addicted to adrenaline, announced the end of his career in 2015. Racing was his dream from an early age.

Today, in addition to numerous titles and awards such as 3-time Polish Champion, European Champion, "Holek" can also be proud of his achievements on a global scale - 3rd place in the Dakar Rally, as well as participation in the World Rally Championship. Thanks to his achievements, Krzysztof also supports young rally drivers by organizing events or automotive events. The income is donated to charity.
