A coach breaks down recruiting in one hour weekly: build a highlight reel fast using reevideo.com, use his College Soccer Email Platform for mass outreach from your personal email, and organize replies into categories like genuine interest, texts, calls, and visits to track which schools are serious.

If you only have 1 hour a week in order to play Call of Soccer, here's exactly the 3 things I would do. Number 1, you need to collect the highlight video. And so if you only have an hour, you're going to need to collaborate that footage very quickly. So you might need to outsource it, meaning to hire somebody to put the video together. Or if you can put the video together, make sure you've already got the video put together. And then actually the editing part, you can use a website called reevideo.com. It allows you to put in the circles super easily, and that's a good one. Number 2, you're going to need some sort of technical system that allows you to send many emails at once from your own email account in a very genuine way that you're in charge of. We call this the College Soccer Email Platform. It's of course something proprietary to me. It's hard to replicate it. So I guess part of the truth is I'm saying you're not going to be able to do this in an hour, but actually what we do with our students is it only takes them about an hour a week to do the recruiting process because of these systems we have in place. We edit their videos. We help them send the emails. We have a system that kind of does it. Relatively automated. It organizes automatically, so that helps a lot. Number 3, when you're trying to respond to schools, make sure you have some way to organize it in the following manner: genuine, generic, text, phone call, Instagram, mass email, visit, unofficial visit, and completed or done. Completed means they no longer want you. Done means either you're interested or you're no longer interested. And of course, you should have a commitment section. So if you want more, I'll come and call and we talk about that tool and how to get it in your hand, and I'll schedule a call with you in advance. Bye.
