Our Approach

01. Diagnose.

We audit brand position, sponsor readiness, and partnership pipeline to find where the real opportunities lie.

02. Architect.

We build the pricing tiers, prospect lists, and pitch decks that turn a plan into a sellable package.

03. Deploy.

We run outreach through negotiation ourselves as an embedded partner and stay accountable for the close.

FIONA TRAN, FOUNDER

Fiona started TPBA to give sports and hospitality brands senior-level partnership and brand strategy without the overhead of a full internal hire. She's the retained sponsorship consultant behind a Pepsi-backed, Yahoo Sports World Cup show, and negotiates directly with brand headquarters on every deal she runs.

Based in New York, she still owns every client relationship herself, from start to close.

Get In Touch With Us

  • We partner with premium lifestyle, hospitality, and consumer brands that value thoughtful strategy, strong creativity, and community-driven growth. Our clients range from early-stage brands building their foundation to established businesses looking to evolve, activate, or scale.

  • We sit at the intersection of sports, hospitality, and brand-building, combining business strategy with creative execution. Our approach ensures that every marketing decision is grounded in commercial goals while still delivering culturally relevant, experience-led work. We don’t chase ideas for the sake of creativity; we build strategies and activations that respect budgets, prioritize return, and make sure investments are put to work in meaningful, measurable ways.

  • Both. We work across brand strategy, digital frameworks, partnerships, and activations. We can also own full-service marketing execution. Some clients engage us for strategic direction, while others bring us on as an embedded partner to plan, manage, and execute end-to-end.

  • Every engagement is customized. We typically begin with a strategic phase to align on goals and opportunities, then move into execution, either through a project-based scope or an ongoing retainer. Our role scales based on your needs.

  • We focus on alignment over volume. Partnerships and activations are curated based on brand fit, audience relevance, and long-term value, not just visibility. The goal is to create experiences and collaborations that feel natural, strategic, and measurable.

  • It starts with a conversation. We’ll discuss your goals, challenges, and timeline to determine the right scope and approach. From there, we’ll propose a tailored engagement aligned with your priorities. Prefer to skip the form? Book a 30-minute call directly.
