Jürgen Alker’s Post

My most successful post (by numbers) on LinkedIn. Last week, I posted a video about the new KITH store in Malibu. Content like the video of the new KITH store in Malibu works quite well. It is highly aesthetic, and a lot of people can relate to it. I posted it briefly after Kith released it. This post is not necessarily very valuable, smart, or unique. Usually, I try to put some thought into my posts or curate stuff that fits my passion for building companies and brands. So even if the post has no great thought in it, it just shows how amazing retail experiences are created these days – and at the end it builds the Kith brand. And this is what I am curious about. I never think about when or how often I post something. I post when I feel it is right. Usually, my posts get between 5,000 and 30,000 views. But I never expected this to happen. Until now, the post got 250,071 Views 4,083 Likes 205 Comments 78 Reposts 149,962 Lifetime Viewers 35,803 Minutes viewed 577 New Contacts ... So yes, the reach is impressive. Did it really do anything for my personal brand or business? Not too sure about that ... 😊 If you are interested in the stats or think there is something to learn, I posted some screenshots below.

The true greatness of a person (a team) is revealed in defeat, not triumph. Munich, 2 July 2024: Romania lost to the Netherlands. The Romanian national team left the following message in the (highly polished) dressing room: "UEFA EURO 2024 was one of the most important football experiences for all of us so far and we are very happy that the stage on which it took place was Germany. Every game, every emotion, every experience has brought us together to feel the magic of football. We leave Germany with the feeling that we have given everything for Romania and we are grateful for everything we have experienced here. It was an honour to be part of the big family of European football. Thank you for making us feel at home! We are grateful for the conditions offered, you are an important part of the beautiful experience we had at EURO 2024! The Romanian National Team" ❤️

Let the next Flo-Show start in a few minutes ... Two months ago I had the chance to briefly meet him during the shoot SoccerBible did with him ... and he is as nice as he looks good in front of the camera! Go team 🇩🇪

We talked to players and industry leaders for the SoccerBible Insight paper around "Creative Soccer Culture." One of the players we talked to was Mario Götze – who discussed with us what creative soccer culture means to him and why investing is also a "creative side hustle." His ambition is to explore beyond what athletes "used to do", instead taking a more angel-investor approach. "For me, investing encompasses a very creative side. Not only that, I deal with many visionaries who have transformative ideas and whom I have to judge based on A business model." This creative investing approach was trailblazed by American athletes like Kevin Durant and Serena Williams, who distribute their wealth amongst nascent tech and lifestyle companies. American athletes in general provide a great deal of creative inspiration for the global football glitterati. "Among european football players, investing is still in its infancy. It is a kind of play-it-safe attitude that we have in Europe, and that slows down innovation and change." More of what he, other players and industry leaders said can be found on the 145 pages around "Creative Soccer Culture."

Yesterday, adidas delivered its Euro 2024 masterpiece. Today, Nike delivers "Awaken Your Madness," bringing together Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland, and Vinicius Jr. Are you camp adidas or Nike? No matter what camp, I wish everyone a great Euro, where we hopefully realize what a great idea Europe is!
