Lauren’s BIO
Lauren knows the secret to building a great business is cultivating fandom rather than followers. She is a sought-after business strategist, an acclaimed speaker, and the founder of the re-commerce startup FanWagn.
A true “digital native,” Lauren’s Twitter account is old enough to (legally) drive. As an original sports social media lead, Lauren spent seven seasons as the voice of @PGATOUR and transformed how professional golf connects with fans online.
She’s the only strategist anywhere with a client list this diverse: Retail brands (Cabela’s, TaylorMade), Tourism hotspots (Grand Ole Opry, Tourism Alberta), Sports entities (Heisman Trophy Trust, Jason Day, Hal Higdon), and Technology giants (SAP, Cisco), to name a few.
Lauren’s entrepreneurial endeavors are powered by collaboration. She contributed as a consultant with Convince & Convert and Brain+Trust Partners, co-produced Sports PR Summit, co-hosted the Mom Buns Podcast, and was the President of her children’s co-op preschool.
Lauren used to be a single-digit handicap golfer but now gets in 9 at a time -- usually on the local par-3 course -- with at least one of her three #TinyTeagues. In her (remaining) free time, she is President of the National Speakers Association Oregon chapter and active in Women in Sports & Entertainment (WISE) and the Canby Area Chamber of Commerce. You can find and follow her on social media as @LaurenTTeague.
