Arnold Sand Director of Marketing
Arnold Sand joined Sports Marketing & Entertainment (then Sports Marketing Group) in 1992 as one of the firm’s original employees. Arnold quickly initiated SME’s Business Keynote Division in 1993 and has passionately worked to expand our expertise in this arena ever since, establishing SME as one of the top resources for thought leaders in the country. He helped launched SME’s Entertainment Division in 1994 with SME’s first entertainment booking, Jim Carrey, just prior to the release of his hit film, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Since then SME has booked and/or produced such artists as Paul McCartney, Brooks & Dunn, Jerry Seinfeld, Don Henley and Glenn Frey, Lenny Kravitz, John Mellencamp, Robin Williams, Stevie Nicks, Hootie & The Blowfish, Jay Leno, Earth Wind & Fire, Bill Cosby, Lionel Richie, Maroon 5, and Carrie Underwood. The majority of Arnold’s clients have been with him at least five years and many have been with him longer than ten years!

Arnold is a graduate of UCLA and worked as a youth counselor at the YMCA through his college years. Prior to joining SME, Arnold completed an internship at Warner/Chappell Music, one of the world’s leading music publishing companies. He has instilled creativity, customer service and attention to detail into the corporate culture at SME. One longtime client wrote of Arnold: “Another successful event! I’d hate to think that I take that for granted. We have set such a standard for our conferences, anything less than perfection just isn’t acceptable. And thankfully, you have the same philosophy.”

Arnold lives just north of Los Angeles in Stevenson Ranch with his wife Tami, twins Jadon and Cole (May 24, 2003) and their latest addition, Carter (June 3, 2006).
