About
I’m Jason Peck. I’m an enterpreneur, internet marketer, consultant and blogger. This blog focuses on sports business, sponsorship, new media, social networking, and whatever else I find interesting. If you’d like to get some thoughts on the intersection of sports business and social media please subscribe to Take A Peck via email or RSS so you don’t miss anything.
I originally started this blog back in March 2006 as a place for me to get my thoughts out about advertising, where I thought my career was headed at the time. When I landed a job in sports consulting, I decided to focus this blog more towards my knowledge in sports and what I was reading about outside of work that related to the sports business world. As this blog has grown I’ve had the opportunity to meet some other sports business bloggers and exchange ideas, so I’d say that blogging has definitely been worth it just for that.
My other projects include Sports Biz Feed, a site that aggregates major sports business blogs so you don’t have to waste time looking at multiple websites for news. For a slimmed down version, check out the Sports Biz Feed Squidoo Lens.
I also run North Hills Buzz a blog-community discussing news restaurants and anything else relating to North Hills, a growing area in Raleigh, North Carolina.
