ALAN ARLT

SPORTS ENTREPRENEUR. SCALED TO 30+ MARKETS.

NOW HELPING OTHERS BUILD.

The only sports business consultant who built, scaled, and sold a nationally recognized sports brand.

I built Ultimate Hoops from startup to acquisition by Life Time, Inc., then scaled it into a multi-million-dollar national sports brand across more than 30 North American markets with over 500 team members.

Unlike traditional consultants, I've been in your shoes: launching digital products, building teams, navigating partnerships, and delivering profitable exits.

Now my company, Arlt Consulting Co., helps sports businesses build scalable ventures that get acquired and grow.

Arlt Consulting 5-star ratings

This is one of those times you feel confident about your purchase. Working with Alan and his team takes the guesswork out of the equation.

About Alan Preview

From Startup Founder to National Brand Builder

I didn't just build a sports company—I built it, got it acquired, then spent 15 years scaling it into a national powerhouse. Ultimate Hoops went from startup to Life Time's premier sports brand, operating in 30+ markets with 500+ team members generating multi-million dollar revenue.

That's the complete journey most consultants can't teach because they've never done it. I have.
