Activity, not growth
Campaigns. Content. Reports. But no clear impact on the business.

2024
Refocused on Business Growth
In 2024, we rebranded as July Grey, stepping away from the sports world to focus on what we do best: helping startups and small to mid-sized businesses grow. We work across the full growth cycle, from positioning and websites to SEO, paid media, and conversion systems, building the foundation and scaling what works. Today, we partner with companies ranging from leading construction and SaaS businesses to local restaurants, showrooms, and everything in between.

2019
Building Athlete Brands at Scale
In 2019, we partnered to launch Fox Ellis Sports in Boston, focused on athlete marketing, sponsorships, and brand building. While the broader organization worked on the legal and regulatory framework around biometric data, we built and managed the athlete-facing side of the business. We grew the roster to over 125 professional athletes before exiting in 2023.

2018
Moving Inside the Business
Next, we expanded into construction marketing with the launch of BUILD, offering fractional and embedded marketing support. It was our first step working directly inside businesses, not just alongside them.

Our Expertise
Venture Model
In select cases, we partner with companies from the ground up. From MVP to launch, we help build the brand, the system, and the growth strategy and take an equity stake in what we build. Because we believe in long-term outcomes, not short-term work.
