Secrets of a Sports Agent with Darren Ferris

Darren Ferris has been working his way through the hockey world as an Agent for decades and has come to be known as one of the most influential voices in hockey.

This week he joins us on The Sign Off: A Frameworth Podcast to talk about how he has learned to maintain focus on the needs of his clients versus the growing demands of the media.

The world of sports agency, especially in the NHL, has changed drastically from requiring oversight in contract negotiations to being a one-stop shop for all that a client might need, be it concierge services, social media management, athletic health, and more.

Darren shares with us his thoughts on the concept of a "home team discount," the benefits and detriments of a Salary Cap, and why he feels the media has tried to paint him as "the bad guy" on occasion.
