Bill Jula is the co-founder and CEO of Postgame, a leading company operating in the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) space within college sports. As the CEO and co-founder of Postgame, he leads a company redefining how student-athletes engage with brands, monetize their influence, and build their personal identities in the digital age.
Building Postgame to Lead the NIL Movement
Postgame was founded to address the growing opportunities created by the NCAA’s NIL policy and to help student-athletes connect with brands. The company operates as a full-service NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) agency, connecting athletes with brands for partnerships, endorsements, and social campaigns. Under Bill Jula’s leadership, Postgame has worked with tens of thousands of college athletes since 2021, providing them access to brand collaborations under the NIL framework.
By prioritizing transparency and opportunity, Postgame helps athletes transform their followings into sustainable business ventures. What once seemed reserved for elite stars is now accessible to thousands of student-athletes who can benefit from their platform, regardless of division or sport.
A Career Built on Entrepreneurship and Innovation
Before founding Postgame, Bill Jula built entrepreneurial experience in technology and professional networking, which laid the foundation for his work in NIL. His career reflects a clear through line: building ventures that connect people through shared passions and digital innovation.
This experience proved vital when the NCAA introduced NIL regulations in 2021. Recognizing the major shift brought by NIL legalization, Bill founded Postgame to help athletes monetize their personal brands through structured and compliant partnerships.
Shaping the Future of College Sports Marketing
Under Jula’s guidance, Postgame has grown rapidly in the NIL marketplace, connecting brands with athletes across various universities and sports. The agency partners with thousands of athletes across different sports, schools, and regions, aligning them with both major and niche brands.
Bill’s leadership emphasizes education and empowerment as much as opportunity. By helping athletes understand contracts, value their time, and build professional relationships, Postgame does more than broker deals, it nurtures the next generation of entrepreneurs.
The company’s approach combines digital marketing insight with hands-on representation, ensuring each athlete partnership aligns with personal brand values and long-term goals. This holistic model has made Postgame a trusted partner for both brands and athletes navigating the complexities of NIL.
Empowering Athletes Beyond the Game
For Bill Jula, NIL is about more than just financial gain, it’s about equipping athletes with tools for lifelong success. Many college players will not turn professional, but their ability to monetize their influence, develop business acumen, and cultivate confidence can create opportunities long after graduation.
This perspective has positioned Postgame as both a campaign platform and an educational resource for athletes entering the NIL space. By combining brand partnerships with education in marketing, entrepreneurship, and social media strategy, Jula’s agency ensures athletes leave college with both earnings and experience.
Redefining the Business of College Athletics
As NIL continues to evolve, Bill Jula remains focused on scalability and impact. He envisions a marketplace that is inclusive, transparent, and athlete-first, values that have defined his leadership since Postgame’s inception.
His work underscores a larger shift in sports culture, one where athletes take control of their narratives and their earning potential. In an industry still adapting to this new reality, Bill Jula and Postgame stand as examples of innovation meeting purpose.
Through strategic vision and entrepreneurial drive, Bill Jula has helped turn NIL from a legal reform into an economic revolution, one that empowers athletes, reshapes brands, and redefines what success looks like in college sports.
