Most collegiate athletes in the United States monetize their name, image, and likeness (NIL) through social media influencer marketing. This study examines the impact of personal branding and institutional factors on the social media NIL value of men's and women's college basketball athletes in California. The results show significant relationships between social media NIL value and competition level, university brand, sport gender, posting frequency, and account verification.
Most collegiate athletes in the United States monetize their name, image, and likeness (NIL) through social media influencer marketing. This provides an opportunity to examine the factors that impact their social media NIL value. Therefore, we investigate the effects of personal branding factors (quality of Instagram biography, posting frequency, and account verification status) and institutional factors (competition level, university brand, and sport gender) on the social media NIL value of men's and women's college basketball athletes (N = 907) in California while controlling for local market characteristics. A linear regression analysis shows significant relationships between social media NIL value and competition level, university brand, sport gender, posting frequency, and account verification. Our results offer new theoretical and practical understandings of the relationships between brands in the sport brand ecosystem and the NIL value of sport influencer's social media posts.
