NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — You won’t be seeing Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas on a box of Wheaties. That’s because Kellogg’s has already swooped in and reached a deal with Douglas to put her picture on a box of Corn Flakes.
Dorfman estimates Douglas could pull in between $1 million to $3 million a year in endorsements leading up to the games in Rio de Janeiro four years from now. But even if Douglas doesn’t compete in 2016, her endorsement career could continue far many years — or even decades — to come.
