LakersAllDayEveryday
By: Aron Cohen
Hey everyone! My name is Aron Cohen and I’ve been a die-hard Laker fan all my life. Six and a half years ago when I was 13, I created a Lakers blog on Instagram called @LakersAllDayEveryday. Through strong dedication and consistency for six straight years, I was able to foster a community off of my pure passion for the Lakers. I love the adrenalin that the account brings me, as for hundreds of thousands of people around the world, I am their No. 1 source for Lakers news, and this excites me way more than I can express. To get a better sense of this strong community I am a part of, click here!
Through this page, I’ve been blessed to take advantage of a lot of cool opportunities! Swipe to see the highlights!
Attend The Big 3 Draft And Combine To Cover Headline Athlete, Lamar Odom
One of the coolest things I can remember was when Lamar Odom reached out to me via Instagram and thanked me for the support I was showing him. This turned into weekly conversations for months to come. I wanted to take this relationship to the next step so I was put in contact with his manager. She invited me to the Big 3 Draft and Combine where I spent a couple days in Vegas capturing content for my page and Lamar’s as well, finishing with a one on one interview with him. (https://www.instagram.com/stories/ highlights/18056879089064520/) A couple days later, after seeing the content I produced for his social media, his manager offered me a full time assistant position to Lamar. Due to school, I was unable to accept but we agreed on a social media role where I ended up representing him along with booking his events/appearances.

Converse Collaboration
This past year, Converse reached out and wanted to promote their new deal with the NBA. They had acquired the rights to team logos so they created a new service where fans could customize their own team-themed shoes.
This was a great project since I was blessed with the opportunity to create my own Lakers/Converse shoe, with many of my followers purchasing the exact one.
USC Basketball Social Media
My latest gig has been with the USC basketball team and I am tasked with producing raw, live content from practices and game. This job has been amazing and so much fun. I’ve learned a ton about sports media through my work with USC.
