Welcome back to another episode of Help Me Help You, your go-to podcast for unraveling the intricacies of the sports agent world. Today, as we delve into episode #3, we tip our caps to an iconic #3 in baseball history. Now, let's pick up where we left off last week. From negotiating my first draft signing bonuses to learning a valuable lesson from a scouting director. I'm taking you on a journey through my early days in the industry. Discover the key principles every young agent needs to know, from being prepared and professional to the importance of being reasonable in negotiations. Learn why contract negotiation is not a zero-sum game and how being unflappable is crucial in this field. Join me as I explore the evolving landscape of endorsements and hear the story of David Hernandez, a 16th round draft pick turned Major League pitcher, and the pivotal role he played in my early career as an agent. From his Double-A all-star status to his Major League debut against baseball icons like Miguel Cabrera and Ken Griffey.
