The Fayetteville Liberty, Fayetteville’s professional sports organization and a growing symbol of local pride and community engagement, is proud to announce a major sponsorship partnership with Jerome Scott – widely known throughout the region as “The Insurance Guy.” This collaboration marks the latest step in the Liberty’s commitment to highlighting and aligning with community leaders who actively shape the future of Fayetteville.

Jerome Scott, a seasoned entrepreneur and trusted insurance professional, joins the team as a Pillar of the Community Sponsor — a designation reserved for individuals and businesses who not only contribute to the Liberty’s mission but also consistently invest in the betterment of the local community. Known for his philosophy of “actions over words,” Scott’s reputation as a reliable and service-oriented figure in the insurance world has made him a respected name across the Fayetteville market.

This sponsorship extends beyond a business arrangement; it is a strategic alliance built on shared values: community engagement, empowerment, and progress. “Partnering with the Fayetteville Liberty is a natural extension of my belief that giving back to the community is not just a duty — it’s a privilege,” said Scott. “We’re both committed to lifting up Fayetteville and creating meaningful impact through action.”

Visitors to the Liberty’s official site, www.faylibertync.com, will now see Jerome Scott prominently featured among the team’s key sponsors. As a trusted name in insurance, Scott’s brand offers a wide array of coverage solutions for individuals, families, and businesses. His partnership with the Liberty brings value to local fans and businesses alike — especially those looking for reliable, community-based insurance support.

Beyond his professional success in the insurance industry, Jerome Scott is expanding his influence with the recent launch of his first book and the debut of his new podcast. Both platforms further his mission to educate, inspire, and lead — particularly in the areas of financial literacy, business ownership, and personal growth. These initiatives make Scott an even more dynamic and influential partner for the Liberty, whose values align with these same themes of empowerment and self-determination.

“Jerome is more than a sponsor — he’s an example,” said a representative from the Fayetteville Liberty front office. “His commitment to this city, his drive to uplift others, and his willingness to lead with integrity made this partnership a no-brainer. We’re honored to have him as part of the Liberty family.”
