NIL Advisory
NIL, Handled
NIL representation for college athletes, 1:1 with Tim Washington. A free 15-minute intro call comes first.
Washington Solutions helps college athletes make the most of NIL, with deals that are vetted, negotiated, and handled the right way, from first conversation to signed agreement and proper disclosure.
The work is led personally by Tim Washington. Tim played Division 1 football at Syracuse and UMass, was named Connecticut Gatorade Player of the Year in 2001, and is a Registered Athlete Agent in New York State. He is completing the SMWW NIL Certification (November 2026) and is the founder of Washington Solutions. When you work with Washington Solutions, you work with Tim.
Objective
Give you a clear read on your NIL value, and a step by step plan to build deals that fit your sport, your school, and your goals.
Outcome
Vetted brand deals, contracts reviewed before you sign, every deal disclosed properly, and a brand and content presence that grows with you, with parents looped in at every step.
Finds and vets brand deals
Deals that fit you, your sport, your school, and your values, with each brand and offer checked carefully before it reaches you.
What Tim Does for You
Reads every contract before you sign
Every contract read before you sign, with what matters flagged in plain language, so you understand what you are agreeing to.
Builds your brand and content presence
A clear, consistent story that brands can see, and an audience that keeps growing.
Negotiates terms
The work, the timing, the use of your name, image, and likeness, and the expectations on both sides, clear before you agree to anything.
Keeps every deal inside the rules
Every deal kept inside your school rules and state law, so a deal never puts your eligibility or your place on your team at risk.
Helps you disclose deals properly
School disclosure and, for Division 1 athletes, NIL Go reporting, with a clear record of what was disclosed and when.
✓ The deliverable
A vetted deal, a contract reviewed before you sign, and a clear record of every deal, with guidance through each step.
Step 3
Review, Negotiate, and Sign With Confidence
Nothing is signed before it is reviewed. Tim negotiates the terms and reads every contract before you sign.
Terms negotiated for you. The work, the timing, the use of your name, image, and likeness, and what each side is expected to do.
Every contract read first. Read before you sign, with what matters flagged, so you understand what you are agreeing to.
What to watch for. Exclusivity, term length, payment timing, content rights, and anything that could limit your future deals.
A clear record. Every deal, every agreement, and every disclosure, on record.
How NIL Works With Tim
Step 1
Start With a Free Intro Call
Everything starts with a free 15-minute intro call, 1:1 with Tim. No obligation, and parents are welcome on the call.
A clear first read. An honest view of your NIL starting point and what is realistic next.
Your questions, answered first. Straight answers on deals, contracts, school rules, and disclosure.
A simple next step. You leave knowing exactly what Tim would do for you and how to start.
Parents looped in. Part of the conversation from the first call, not brought in later.
Step 2
Find and Vet the Right Deals
Deals that fit you, not just any deal that comes your way. Each brand and offer is checked before it reaches you.
The right fit. Matched to your sport, your school, your values, and your audience.
Brands checked first. The brand, the product, and the offer vetted before you spend time on it.
No pressure to say yes. If a deal is not right for you, Tim will say so, and it does not move forward.
A plan, not a one off. Deals chosen to build your brand over time, not to fill a single week.
Step 4
Build Your Brand, Season After Season
Good NIL work does not stop at one deal. A brand and content presence that grows with you, season after season.
A clear story. Profiles and content that tell a consistent story about who you are as an athlete and a person.
Content that fits you. Content planned around your schedule, your sport, and your voice.
Brands keep noticing. A steady, real presence makes it easier for the right brands to find you and to come back.
Guidance as you grow. Tim stays with you as your audience, your sport, and your goals change.

NIL only works if it stays inside the rules. Tim keeps every deal inside your school rules and state law, and helps you disclose deals properly.
You keep control
You keep control of your accounts and your content. Tim advises; you decide.
School rules checked
Every deal is checked against your school rules before it moves forward.
Parents looped in
Parents are looped in on deals, contracts, and disclosure, at every step.
No signing before review

Disclosure done properly
School disclosure and, for Division 1 athletes, NIL Go reporting, handled properly on every deal.
State law checked
Every deal is checked against the state law that applies to you.
