SUMMARY
Detroit City Football Club grew from a ragtag amateur club playing on high school fields to the hottest sports ticket in town. And they used that momentum to become a force in the community. After 8 years of grinding through various amateur leagues, the Club finally was ready to go pro in 2020 - then Covid hit. They needed to crowd fund $1.2 million in 4 months, during a recession, to stay alive. Our campaign achieved that in less than 5 days, by selling not just shares, but bragging rights.
