AUGUSTA, ME, June 17, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Greg Glynn has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
With more than 20 years of marketing, public relations and broadcasting experience, Mr. Glynn has established himself as a distinguished professional in the sports space. In 2021, he founded Pliable Marketing, a full-service marketing and NIL (name, image and likeness) agency specializing in athlete branding, and has served as its chief executive officer since. A core component of the company's mission is to empower athletes by educating them about NIL rights, which refers to an athlete's right to control their name, image and likeness—and potentially profit from it. Pliable helps clients identify potential opportunities to capitalize on their NIL and has created more than 150 NIL partnerships between athletes and businesses to date.
A registered sports agent in several U.S. states, Mr. Glynn currently represents more than 35 high school, college and professional athletes. His dedication to educating these young individuals about branding opportunities is further evidenced by "Pliable's 10-Step Athlete Branding Playbook," which he created and offers on his website. Additionally, he hosts the "Athlete Brand Advisor Podcast" and delivers presentations at high schools, colleges and other institutions to provide valuable information about NIL and branding to student-athletes and their coaches.
Mr. Glynn's commitment to the industry is showcased by his concurrent role as a professor for the NIL course at Sports Management Worldwide since 2022. Additionally, he is the only NIL agent in the country who holds three NIL certifications (SMWW, Front Office Sports, CleanKonnect), and national accreditation in public relations through the Public Relations Society of America.
Prior to founding Pliable Marketing, Mr. Glynn honed his skills at Marshall Communications, where he managed clients and a wide range of responsibilities during his 12-year tenure with the company. He began his career with the Portland Pirates, where he served as the play-by-play broadcaster and vice president of communications from 2004 to 2009. This position allowed him to fulfill his passion for sports while gaining valuable experience working with professional athletes.
Mr. Glynn's academic background laid a strong foundation for his professional achievements. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in mass communications with a concentration in broadcast journalism and a minor in marketing from Quinnipiac University in 2004. Having made his own way in the field, he emphasizes that anyone can succeed in NIL as long as they are educated and empowered with the skills and tools to succeed, during and after their sports career.
In addition to his professional endeavors, Mr. Glynn is actively involved in civic organizations and charitable causes. He has volunteered with the Girl Scouts of Maine and served as director of public relations for the Skating Association of Maine. His commitment to philanthropy is also evident through his support for the National Childhood Cancer Awareness Walk and fundraising efforts for Shriners Hospitals for Children and the Travis Mills Foundation.
Of all his accomplishments, Mr. Glynn is most proud of his work to increase the popularity of women's sports through NIL and his company's initiative called #MissionE50. Further exemplifying his passion for women's sports is his pivotal role in supporting and amplifying the efforts of two Ball State University softball players in their mission to help cure childhood cancer. Under his guidance, the pair raised over $4,500 and took part in the National Childhood Cancer Awareness Walk. Recognizing the power of their story, Mr. Glynn collaborated with his daughter to write a children's book that shares their journey through the perspective of a child. His goal was to inspire future generations to contribute to meaningful causes. Notably, one of the players later leveraged her brand to gain acceptance into Vanderbilt University's PhD program in cancer research.
In recognition of his various achievements, Mr. Glynn has received numerous accolades, including a Podcast Award in 2025 and nominations for NIL Educator of the Year by AthleteCon and Business Leader of the Year by Mainebiz, both in 2023. Additionally, his outstanding support in broadcasting was recognized by Quinnipiac Athletics in 2004.
Outside his professional responsibilities, Mr. Glynn enjoys golfing, working out, staying fit and spending time with family and friends in his free time. He attributes much of his success to recruiting great athletes and individuals who share his vision of giving back and helping others. As he looks toward the future, he aims to continue educating and empowering athletes, envisioning substantial growth for his business. Mr. Glynn shares many additional insights through Pliable U, an education arm of his business that provides NIL education for athletes, families and athletic administrators. He is also the host of "The Athlete Brand Advisor Podcast." More information can also be found at his website: https://pliablemarketing.com/about-the-founder.
