I was one of the slowest players on JV, yet 4 years later I went on to play Division I soccer on a full ride. Here's how I flipped the script. First of all, I had tons of video. I was very lucky. My father, Paul Taublieb, is an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker along with my mother, who worked for a gentleman named Haim Saban, who helped create so many great movies. So she was really good as a publicist. So I was able to message and have great video. I made sure that I messaged people on Instagram and DM'd them as much as I could. Email is the primary way to get their attention, but one of the best ways to follow up is Instagram and Twitter. If you comment the word IG, I will send you a bunch of tips on what you need to do for your social media.
