From Athletics to Sunday Times Bridge Championship and how to leverage the power of an “influencer” Omar Sharif, Egyptian Actor at the time     Other early projects, Sunday Times Fun Run in Hyde Park (before London Marathon existed) – in late 70s Start as an Entrepreneur – Alan Pascoe Associates (APA) – 1983 – taking over an existing agency, owner retiring – with partner Edward Leask Childhood Asthma story and how to think out of the box – ask questions, don't pitch at client Sold APA to WCRS Ad agency for One Million pound in cash – bought it back later Other projects, Broadcast sponsorship of NFL, Fantasy Football with Daily Telegraph and more Different focus to other agencies. Consultancy work for brand owners, amplification of sponsorship, events management and sponsorship sales Bought Personality Management company, representing TV Presenters and inventory management for A-boards of English Football Club before the Premier League Sold it again to Interpublic in 1999 – believe being part of a larger Advertising Group was the way to go to expand the business Deal with Interpublic didn't work out well personally, left company and set up a new company around British/UK Athletics (Fast Track later CSM – Chime Sports Marketing), early 2000 Ran CSM till he stepped down ten years ago (2013/14) – build up both API and CSM into top 3 agencies in the world The partnership dilemma between Advertising agencies and Sports Marketing agencies Lessons from buying other agencies worldwide - CSM buying Zak Browns agency – JMI George Soros partnership with DC United, MLS team At the time he left in 2014, 20 offices, 750 staff growing to 1,000 people around the world -  CSM recently acquired by Wasserman   Management style over the decades and how to train people Helping to win the London Olympic bid, insider stories (Seb Coe, Keith Mills, Buckingham Palace, etc) Legacy of the London Olympics, no white Elephants around London, helped transform parts of the city Wrapping up with what keeps him busy now, some consultancy work – Commonwealth Games, Moneycorp and final story   About In 2014 Alan stepped down as President of the CSM Group, the Group he founded, now part of Chime Communications, having put in place the second generation of management to take CSM and its clients onto even greater heights, including Lord Coe who took over his role as Executive Chairman.
