What is PBFN?
Professional Business & Financial Network (PBFN) is an exclusive Internet-based membership organization designed to provide professional athletes with the fundamental tools they need to succeed in business - both during and beyond their athletic careers. Founded by 11-year NFL veteran Ryan McNeil, who felt that professional athletes needed better awareness of and access to business opportunities, PBFN fosters professional development in a supportive peer environment by bringing together active and retired athletes interested in starting or growing a business and networking with other athletes.
PBFN provides practical and credible business advice and tools, supplies essential educational opportunities for professional growth, and offers valuable opportunities to build long-term peer relationships.
Who is PBFN for?
All professional athletes, male or female, who are interested in enhancing their professional, personal, and financial well-being may become members of PBFN. Membership is open to all active or retired professional athletes, in all sports, worldwide.
Although we cater our services to members, we value the family unit as a vital support mechanism. We recognize that athletes and their spouses are often extensions of each other. With this in mind, we encourage spousal involvement in many organizational activities, such as Acceleration, our annual Business Skills and Development Conference.
What can joining PBFN do for me?
Joining PBFN is absolutely the best way for a professional athlete to step into the business world and develop a winning business strategy. PBFN provides members with the knowledge to enhance their business skills and increase their revenues, while acting as a conduit for promoting immediate or future business endeavors with other professional athletes. A cost-effective alternative to traditional education, PBFN teaches members basic business skills without requiring them to return to school.
Why should I join PBFN?
Professional athletes aren’t just like everyone else. They have a unique approach to life built on a special set of circumstance. So it makes sense that PBFN wouldn’t be just another professional organization. When you become a member of PBFN, you’ll have access to expert advice and valuable educational opportunities for personal growth. PBFN has the resources to connect you with a larger circle of professional athletes who can relate to where you are now in your career and who can help you figure out where you need to go next.
PBFN’s benefits and services are not meant to replace the efforts of league and alumni associations, agents, or other professional service providers. Our aim is to provide you with the best, most relevant information and connect you with the most experienced experts available.
How do I Join?
Many professional athletes don’t take the time to prepare for their post-athletic lives. But why should the rules for success be any different away from the game? Whether you’re a retired athlete looking for an exciting business opportunity or an active athlete planning your next move, PBFN can give you the practical skills to help you achieve even your most ambitious professional goals.
