gain insights & accelerate growth IN SCHOOL ATHLETICS with k12 CONSULTING programs
Working with K12 Sports Tech has been fantastic for Omella. Abby and Alec’s market expertise and insight is second to none from what we’ve seen, and has been instrumental in gaining traction in the complex school athletics space. Their unique model of inviting athletic directors onto projects to provide us direct feedback and guidance – while introducing our solution – has proven incredibly effective and valuable for us. And the combination of well thought-out introductions, surveys, and feedback not only unearthed valuable insights that we hadn’t previously considered, but helped us identify untapped potential and see immediate success.
Thanks to K12, we feel confident in our approach and strategy to serve athletic departments well, and we are equipped with knowledge and tools needed to seize new opportunities. I strongly recommend K12 Sports Tech to any sports tech vendor or organization seeking to understand, enter, and/or grow in the school athletics space!

“Tradition is a challenge to innovation.” ~Alvaro Siza Vieira.
Nothing speaks to the K12 market and the AD space as fittingly as this quote. We became partners with K12 Sports Tech with excitement and open eyes to truly get one-on-one feedback from the leaders, pioneers, and visionaries in the athletic market. What we learned from our conversations vastly surpassed our expectations, resulting in exponential sales growth and market knowledge. Exceptional, extraordinary, and phenomenal cannot begin to describe how great it was to work with Abby and Alec. If you truly believe that you have the K12 space solved, you’d be remiss if you didn’t give your company, your prospects, and your clients the opportunity to learn and grow from the knowledge gleaned by the giants in the industry.
—ADOLFO URQUIETA, DIRECTOR OF SALES, RANK ONE SPORTS
In one sentence, if High School sports was in our ICP we would be working with K12 Sports Tech intensely.
K12 are by far and away the best partners we’ve worked with in our history and we don’t say that lightly. As soon as High School does become our ICP we will be picking up the phone and going all in. It was a great pilot and experience for us.
K12 don’t just make flat intros. This is the most crafted and considered partnership we’ve had. They listen and figure out how your product can fit into their network for ADs and district high school organizations and have deep connections with very important people in the space. They will put you in front of exactly the right people and you will get product feedback for the high school and district space as well as follow ups and potential sales.
K12 do not just work with anyone so make sure you pitch your product well.
