Tapping Into Rapid Growth

.

The esports industry is expanding at an impressive rate

Growth in the esports industry isn't expected to slow down any time soon. According to Statista, it will more than double in size over the next four years, reaching $2.89bn in 2025.

This has come as the audience for esports events has increased each year, with figures released by eMarketer in February 2021 indicating that the average number of monthly esports viewers will hit 31.4m in 2023, having stood at just 21.1m in 2019.

Investing in Guild Esports would be turning that opportunity to your advantage. That’s because the company isn’t just a member of a rapidly growing market; it also has a strong business plan and impressive growth already under its belt.

The company’s plan is simple: achieve rapid growth and be one of the top companies in the Esports industry.

This clear goal has given the company a purpose and allowed it to flesh out several different revenue streams.

First up is the academy. Guild Esports trains and signs up esports athletes to play for its team in a model based on a traditional sports academy. Professional coaches help the athletes hone their skills and ready themselves for tournaments.

Aspiring esports athletes can gain access to this training by paying subscription fees. This also gives Guild access to a pool of talent, from which they can recruit the next generation of Esports stars.

The approach is clearly paying off, with one of Guild’s athletes scooping the top prize at Fortnite Champion Series European Grand Finals in Spring 2021. Victories like this also earn the company winnings - a second way of netting revenue.

Meanwhile, Guild is also a lifestyle brand. Fans of the team can buy branded street-style apparel to show their support. The eye-catching logo and fashionable clothes are a great way of bringing in revenue, while also promoting the brand at the same time.

But the largest of the company’s revenue streams is through its partnership deals.

Just as the top traditional sports teams gain sponsorship from brands looking for promotion, some heavy-hitting brands have inked deals with Guild Esports, including Subway, HyperX and Samsung Odyssey.

Huge Names Are on Board

Guild Esports benefits from incredible partnerships

We can’t talk about how exciting Guild Esports is without discussing the huge brands associated with the business.

Subway, the world’s second largest fast-food chain, signed a two-year multi-million-dollar partnership with the company in March 2021. Speaking at the time of the deal, Guild Esports, said the value of the deal was “astronomically high”.

Furthermore, the company has landed further partnership deals with Samsung Odyssey and HyperX.

It’s no wonder these companies are keen to partner with Guild. The company has over 20 million people in its audience member network, who follow the teams on social media or subscribe to Guild’s cohort of content creators and pro-players.

Another draw for these partners was the Guild was dubbed the fastest growing esports brand on the planet by data platform GEEIQ in 2021.

Finally, there’s just the small matter of Guild’s association with soccer superstar David Beckham.

Guild has a licence to use Beckham’s name, voice, biography, image and likeness for advertising and promotion, while he also provides services such as personal appearances and social media posts.

The power of brand Beckham is enormous. On Instagram alone, the former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder has over 70 million followers, making him one of the top 10 most followed athletes on the platform.

Beckham’s brand power is not limited by region either. He’s immensely popular in North America, due in part to his association with the MLS, while his football, modelling and business work has made him a household name in Asia too.

With its impressive following, major deals and the backing of Becks, Guild is set to take the esports industry by storm.
