Insights

This marketing campaign represents a strategic move by DICK'S Sporting Goods to boost holiday sales and strengthen brand presence in Texas, a key market. The $100,000 grants per athlete, totaling $400,000, demonstrate smart brand investment by combining celebrity endorsements with community engagement.

The campaign's multi-channel approach across traditional and digital media, coupled with interactive in-store displays, should drive foot traffic during the important holiday shopping season. Partnering with high-profile local athletes like Simone Biles and Dak Prescott leverages regional appeal and sports culture to create emotional connections with customers.

However, while the campaign shows creative marketing execution, the financial impact is relatively modest given DKS's market cap and annual marketing budget. The initiative's primary value lies in brand building and local market penetration rather than immediate revenue generation.

The stars will battle it out for the best holiday decorations for a good cause: $100K in youth sports grants

In the new campaign, produced in partnership with Bolded, OBB Media's recently announced branded content division, these iconic athletes engage in a friendly competition that calls on their decorating skills, not their athletic skills, as they deck out DICK'S Sporting Goods stores in the Texas city they call home and try to earn the title of DICK'S Holiday Decorating Officer. From lights and wreaths to over-the-top displays, the athletes showcase the unique style of their city and their connection to it - gold accents in Houston to celebrate Simone's medals, a gingerbread football locker room in Dallas for Dak the QB, 12-foot basketball tree for Chris in San Antonio and officially licensed Texas accents for Quinn, who received a little help from Matthew McConaughey, in Austin.

As part of this campaign, DICK'S Sporting Goods and The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation are continuing their commitment to communities through the Sports Matter program. Each athlete will receive a $100,000 Sports Matter grant to award to a local youth sports organization, or organizations, of their choosing, inspiring and supporting the next generation of athletes.

"We've had a blast getting ready for the holidays with Texas' most inspiring and entertaining sports icons," said Kari DeGori, VP Local Marketing and Marketing Capabilities at DICK'S Sporting Goods. "These in-store displays are interactive, fun, a great place for photos, and each has its own tie of sport into the holiday – whether it's a gingerbread locker room, a chimney basketball game, or a vintage farm basketball hoop. We hope that these displays add some extra joy for our customers while they shop for everyone on their list. And we're thrilled to be able to partner with our Foundation's Sports Matter program to extend the holiday cheer to deserving local sports organizations."

"I love competing, so taking part in this Texas holiday contest with some of the best athletes across sports was a lot of fun," said Chris Paul. "We are all trying to win and become DICK'S Holiday Decorating Officer, but no matter what, we all win as we have the opportunity to give back to youth sports. Thank you to DICK'S for awarding a $100,000 Sports Matter grant to the Chris Paul Family Foundation."
