MVP is a software company leading a new age of data-driven omnichannel measurement and valuation.

About us

Our software helps brands, properties, and agencies accurately quantify the value of partnerships, sponsorships, and activations with an integrated and cohesive omnichannel view that includes broadcast, streaming, social, digital, audio, in-venue, and on location. We are a unique software platform designed to integrate with existing people processes or systems to help automate a service-heavy industry and start driving more efficient and impactful solutions. We’re fortunate to have a roster full of trusted partners from all areas of business that rely on our platform to provide accurate, unbiased data to help them evaluate strategic marketing initiatives. Raise your hand if you’re tired of hearing about or defending “proprietary metrics”. We are too. So we’re ditching ours and shifting to a transparent methodology that shows each input used to formulate value. Our solution provides comprehensive performance analysis and valuation at both the individual partner or portfolio level, including assessing branded and unbranded content, attributable audiences, broadcast presence, and activations (digital and experiential). Like many who are looking to answer the ROI question, we're fatigued by the lack of evolution in the measurement space. In response to that call for improvement, we're stepping in as the solution that isn't afraid to dive deep into the details to ensure we're delivering the most efficient omnichannel approach.

    In sponsorship marketing, the age-old question persists: How do we measure success? Traditional metrics like media impressions and logo placements have long been the standard, but they don’t tell the full story. Today’s sponsors and properties need deeper insights into how sponsorships drive business outcomes, customer actions, and brand sentiment. That’s exactly what the Sponsorship Marketing Association tackled in its March webinar, "Measuring Success: Key Metrics for Evaluating Sponsorship Effectiveness." Read more ⬇️

    Want to make sponsorship measurement less daunting? 🤔 Join our team members Brandon Nutting and Jake Lenz as they break down the metrics and methods that simplify partnership evaluation. This session is perfect for those new to measurement or looking to enhance their existing strategies, this session is designed to help you confidently navigate the world of sponsorship measurement. Register at the link below or DM us if you are interested in attending 😉

    Traditional exposure metrics are out. Gone are the days when it was acceptable to measure the effectiveness of sponsorships based solely on media impressions, logo placements, or how visible a brand was during an event. These quantitative measures, while once considered the gold standard, no longer fully capture the true value a partnership can bring to a brand. Read more ⬇️

    The first few weeks of 2025 have been all about travel (literally living out of a suitcase), having a bunch of productive meetings while mixing business with a bit of fun at some awesome sporting events. 🏒 Kicked off the year with a bang in Chicago for the Winter Classic at Wrigley Field – spent New Year’s Eve with our friends at the National Hockey League (NHL). 🏒 Headed out to Raleigh to support our clients at the Carolina Hurricanes as they faced off against the Pens – alongside two of my amazing teammates, Cam Taylor & Connor James. 🏈 Took a quick (personal) trip out to Miami for the Orange Bowl – not the outcome I was hoping for, but awesome to catch up with my best friends and reconnect with some old ones (Hey Michael McAllister!) 🏒 Wrapped up my last work trip before 👶 arrives with a fantastic suite night at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night. Big thank you to friends, clients, and prospects for a great night taking in some Rangers hockey. January is setting the bar high for the year and can’t wait to see what the next few months bring for MVP – exciting times ahead!

    Yesterday, we asked one of our amazing clients if they’d share a quick “vote of confidence” with a prospect we’re hoping to bring on board. They immediately obliged (they know who they are—thank you!) and wrote the following: "I have been very happy with our decision given the data transparency and level of customer service that MVP provides us. Their customer service is some of the best I have seen. It has been a night and day difference from where we were with our previous provider." This kind of feedback makes me so proud to be the Customer Success leader at MVP. Our team works around the clock to offer timely, strategic recommendations and go above and beyond in meeting our commitments. As we step into 2025, I couldn’t be more excited to continue working with this incredible group of individuals every single day!

    As the college football season comes to a close, we’re taking a look back on one of the most beloved new additions to the College GameDay regular season - Pat McAfee's Kicking Contest. This season’s fifteen College GameDay Kicking Contests sponsored by Home Depot brought massive social engagement showcasing combined strategic visibility with standout moments and the ability to leverage platforms like TikTok to boost and enhance brand value while delivering greater ROI. What Worked: ✔️ FG success matters! Weeks with made field goals delivered 1.4X more social value than misses, even when a celebrity guest made a kicking attempt. The November 16th kick was the most viral success moment, delivering $562K to Home Depot in one weekend when one student made the kick on behalf of another. ✔️ The same November 16th kicking contest went the most viral, generating 31.5M impressions, 3.64M engagements, and $562K in brand value. ✔️TikTok led the charge in generating earned media attention, delivering $800K in Home Depot value with viral clips averaging 2.1M impressions per post—nearly 3X higher than other platforms. Missed Opportunities: ❌ The Home Depot helmet loses impact when not worn. Signage visibility is also limited at some locations, often obstructed by student signs or crowds. Ensuring students wear the Home Depot helmet during interviews, as well as adding a Home Depot-branded field goal net, could unlock an additional $1.31M in value.
