A British free-style skiing champion in the 1970's, he began marketing his fellow athletes, helping them find sponsors to permit them to compete.[3] Payne was drafted into the IOC in the 1989, having previously worked at ISL Marketing , a Swiss based marketing company that in 1982 had been appointed by the IOC to develop a global marketing program.[3][4] During his 17 years with the IOC,[3] he contributed to the development of a multi-billion marketing program for the organisation, worldwide.[5] According to media outlets, Payne is "credited with turning the Games into a financial success" through the television and marketing deals he negotiated for the Olympics during his tenure.[6][7]
In 2004 Payne also founded his global strategic advisory group, Payne Sports Media Strategies, advising governments, corporations, broadcaster and sports organisations, including Formula One,[8]Alibaba, WPP, CVC amongst others.
In 2005 Payne released his first book, Olympic Turnaround[3]that details how the Olympics stepped back from the brink of extinction to become the world’s best known brand and a multi billion global franchise. The book has been published in more than 15 different languages.
In 2021 Payne released his second book, Toon In! that in 2022 won the prestigious Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year Award (8) detailing the Olympic history through cartoons and how the Games have defied threats.[9][10] All profits donated to charity – Back Up, Sport for Peace, Yunus Sports Hub and Cartooning for Peace.
