Fayette, Mo. – The Central Methodist University Department of Athletics has partnered with Infuxer, providing student-athletes the opportunity to monetize on their name, image, and likeness (NIL) by allowing fans to purchase personalized merchandise.
Influxer is an officially licensed vendor, creating co-branded apparel customized with players' names and numbers. Through this partnership, Influxer will provide education and training on marketing, entrepreneurship, and personal branding.
"Influxer is excited about this partnership with the Eagles to bring a great NIL opportunity that benefits everyone," stated Influxer Vice President Keither Miller. "Jeff Sherman and the administration have been extremely diligent in not only emphasizing the end product of the opportunity but also recognizing the business experience the process brings to student-athlete development."
Every student-athlete at CMU will have the opportunity to create their own webpage and showcase personalized gear that is available for purchase.
"This is an exciting time for CMU athletics and our student athletes," stated Director of Athletics Jeff Sherman. "The partnership with Influxer is an innovative way to enable all our 800+ student athletes on CMU's campus to access (NIL) Name, Image, and Likeness in a way that supports both CMU Athletes and the University. We are thrilled and excited to bring this opportunity to our campus. Our goal continues to rank among the top in the NAIA in athletics, and providing this additional opportunity for our student-athletes is another way to enhance the overall student-athlete experience. I predict this will be very popular and most successful."
