Episode notes
Prize Money Changes Expose Priorities
- Ffion Davies left ADCC partly because she felt the organization undervalued women and made slow, late changes.
- The Craig Jones Invitational doubled women's prize money quickly, showing small decisions can shift incentives.
Pay Should Be Proportional Not Patronizing
- Female competitors often earn far less despite comparable accomplishments and viewership potential.
- Davies argues pay should be proportional to achievements and audience, not gender-based assumptions.
Use Analytics To Bargain For Pay
- Share realistic metrics like YouTube analytics to negotiate better deals and prove drawing power.
- Use verifiable data when asking promoters or sponsors for higher pay.
