Bakari, certified by the NFL Players Association in 2003, became an agent through an unusual route. Hired to represent executives at corporations in employment contract negotiations, he persuaded the partners at Dow Lohnes to let him try to start a sports practice. Today, Bakari is president of that Dow Lohnes sports and entertainment division, which consists of Bakari and nine other lawyers.
AGENT APPLICATIONS DENIED: The NFLPA continues to review a number of applications of NFL agents for recertification but has denied a handful of agents who applied to be recertified, sources said, including Andrew Bondarowicz, who is trying to found a national trade association for sports agents.
One source said about five agents so far have been denied recertification, but those agents were not high-profile agents with large client lists. Attempts to identify all the agents were unsuccessful. Sources asked for anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter.
As previously reported (SportsBusiness Journal, June 4-10), Bondarowicz has sent emails to about 2,500 agents and other athlete representatives in recent months about his plan to form an agent association. Last year, he owned two indoor football league clubs, something he did not disclose to the union.
This arrangement allows some free agents to specialize more in generating leads, while others specialize in delivering the main service. It permeates the ecosystem with an open-ended reward for everyone to remain vigilant for sales opportunities, not only for themselves, but for anyone they might refer a client to.
A common problem, the authors note, is that free agents rarely have clear agreements between them about roles. Prime Contractors need assurance that all communication will be shared with them and that their client relationships will be preserved.
Building on the previous rule, FAE advises revealing the free agent network to the client, instead of keeping it a secret or pretending to be a bigger company. By disclosing upfront to the client the source of the labor being performed, any future confusion or embarrassment can be avoided.
