Fantasy sports is one of the most engaging ways to grow and nurture fandom, with 62.5 million Americans playing as of 2022. While fantasy sports existed in the 1960s, the internet boosted its access, maintenance, and popularity.
With so many fans playing fantasy sports, the industry expanded in 2007 by introducing daily fantasy sports sites where people can draft a team for one day and potentially win money based on the players’ performances. The number of people with fantasy sports jobs increased 6.8% from 2018 to 2022, and the industry is expected to be worth $38.6 billion by 2025.
Today’s guest on the WorkInSports Podcast, PrizePicks’ Sr. VP of Revenue Dylan Cooper, enjoys a front-row seat to the fantasy sports industry’s explosive growth. He and host Brian Clapp discuss:
- His path to getting a job in fantasy sports
- How daily fantasy sports appealed to him
- What skills he developed and utilized transitioning across three positions with PrizePicks
- His advice for people looking at fantasy sports jobs as a career path
