    The best brands don’t need discounts— they create cult-like loyalty instead. Why do people spend $40 on a YETI mug instead of $10 on Amazon? Or $399 on AirPods when $20 headphones work just fine? It’s not about the product—it’s the brand. Cult brands like YETI and Apple ( or emerging cult brands like Spikeball ) don’t rely on discounts or ads to win—they rely on loyalty, trust, and delivering an experience people can’t resist. If you want your brand to charge more, sell more, and attract repeat customers without a race to the bottom, join us at The Gathering 2025. Buy your ticket before December 5th, and you’ll get exclusive access to The 8 Principles of Cult Brands workshop with Chris Kneeland this January. This workshop will equip you with a roadmap to: ✔️ Charge 2–3x more than your competitors. ✔️ Build a brand people love to come back to. ✔️Never rely on discounts again. The best brands are built on value—not price tags. Let's make 2025 your year to level up. 🎟️ Secure your ticket now Chris Kneeland Spikeball Inc.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Spikeball™ Named Official Sponsor of Summer [Chicago, IL. June 3rd, 2024] — In a first of its kind sponsorship, Spikeball™ proudly announces it is the Official Sponsor of Summer. After a lengthy, intense negotiation with Mother Nature, it's official: Spikeball™ is taking over your sunny season. In a world where beach balls and volleyballs once reigned supreme, Spikeball™ has ascended to the throne of summer fun, claiming its rightful place as the undisputed champion of leisurely competitiveness. From backyard barbecues, to grassy parks, to sandy shores, and even prison yards (get out soon, Mikey!) it has infiltrated every corner of the sun-soaked universe. "It's about time someone recognized our dominance over the summer scene," remarked Chris Ruder, CEO of Spikeball™. "We've been tirelessly slinging balls, shipping boxes, and diving for glory while others toss beanbags and stand around talking about lawn mowers. We're a brand, not just a game; we're a lifestyle. And what better way to solidify our reign than by becoming the Official Sponsor of Summer?" Ruder was later heard murmuring, "Can we actually sponsor a season? Screw it, run with it." As the new overlords of all things summer, Spikeball™ promises to bring the heat with a series of epic tournaments, never ending trash talk on the beach, and countless relationship-ending arguments over whether that shot was a rimmer. "My friends fall, winter and spring are going to be so jealous!", Summer said. “Is there a better fit than Spikeball and summer? 75-degree days, green grass, sunburns, warm beaches, sand in cracks...I couldn't be more excited to make this partnership official.” So, as you dust off your shades, fire up the grill, and load your 19 friends in your beater car to hit the beach, remember one thing: Summer just got a massive upgrade, a la Spikeball™. About Spikeball™: Spikeball™ is what’s taking over your social circle and forcing you to get outside and be active. It’s that addictive thing that just won’t go away. Don’t fight it. Embrace it. Love it. Hug it. Caress it. Since its inception, Spikeball™ has grown into a global phenomenon, with an authentic, passionate community of players and fans spanning the globe. They form lifelong relationships in college, sometimes marry each other and later, sometimes have babies. Want more? Head to Spikeball.com. About Summer: Undefeated for the past few million years in the annual, ‘Warmest Season’ competition, Summer is the dominant force on planet Earth that generates billions of smiles and beautiful, active, happy people each year. It brings sunny days, new friends, outdoor adventures, and endless fun to people around the world. With its laid-back vibes and carefree attitude, summer is the perfect partner for Spikeball™.
