A key highlight of the partnership was the launch of MLB’s first-ever digital All-Star voting platform. The platform generated over 620 million votes in its inaugural season, nearly doubling the previous record. To drive awareness and fan voting, Haley orchestrated an influencer campaign that prioritized authenticity, engagement and reach in the selection methodology, including custom content and appearances from celebrity baseball fans, Joel McHale and Andy Cohen. Extensive followers ensured broad reach, while their diverse audience demographics enabled Esurance to expand beyond traditional baseball fan boundaries.
