1. Connect & upload

Find a platform that makes it easy to import all your visual media from various hard drives and online media libraries, ensuring your content is ‘findable’ without the need to navigate your way through complex channels.

2. Tag your images

Inefficiencies in content retrieval lead to significant time wastage, so it’s important to use tags to make your visual media easier to search. This could be by year, sport, location etc. Some platforms have an AI integration to make tagging your images super quick and easy. They can even identify certain players, brands and objects to help you distribute content.

3. Make content easy to get hold of

Sharing passwords to all your various online storage solutions with your team is not only a pain but can quickly get confusing, as well as being a security nightmare. Using a centralised media asset management system will allow you to organise access to all your visuals for multiple users, with tracked, secure, centralised access.

4. Automation

Automating workflows within your sports media platform can help you organise the distribution of your media assets to your stakeholders in a timely manner, helping you get the reach you need and achieve cut-through during the crowded Olympic landscape.

5. Get the most from your staff

Find a platform that will track rights and permissions and even manage royalties for you. The time and talents of your creative teams are much better spent on capturing your story, rather than administering it. With an effective media asset management system, you’ll be able to shift the focus to creating more inspiring visual collateral and use the platform’s insights to tell you just how beneficial your investment has been.

What’s the solution?

The crunch time around the Olympics demonstrates the critical need for robust sports asset management platforms that organise your visual media effectively. The repercussions of unorganised visual media not only hamper productivity but also impede opportunities for monetisation and commercialisation.

Essentially, if you can’t find the right visual tools to inspire your audience, you’ll fail to create emotive campaigns that motivate your communities to better engage with your sport – leaving you stumbling at the last hurdle.
