A coach walks a high school soccer player through recruiting outreach before a showcase in three days: email 100 coaches daily from a Division II/III list, prioritize dream schools, post highlights to a new Instagram account because coaches click that more than YouTube, and follow up after the showcase with game footage. Skip everything else.
Hi everyone. They have their showcase in 3 days, basically. Now, because of that, their video, we're not gonna be able to like fix it up to the super fancy dancy, which is fine. The games will be recorded too, right at the showcase. So he has a video, which is quite good. Okay. It's really good. What I need him to do, which is different, I've not actually done it like this before. Okay. You're gonna skip right to this section and you're gonna watch these 2 videos, the login, and then this video. Okay. I need to log, use both of these, and you're gonna press send to the list of schools we give you. In your folder will be a list of schools with your major for D2 and D3. I don't care if they're coming to the showcase. That is how, Mom, we get the interest of the schools you want. Now, because you can only send 100 a day, I don't want you to email the schools that are necessarily coming to the showcase. I want you to email the schools that you like, so Rutgers, whoever else. Then the second round of emails can be to the schools that are coming to the showcase, and you're going to email them even on the day of the showcase because you— we can only send 100 a day. So you're going to send it today, tomorrow, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, basically. The reason we're doing that is it doesn't really matter always if they come to your game. If they know that you're at a good showcase at ECNL, they will watch your video. They will invite you to a camp genuinely. And that's how you get recruited if they're not going to come to your game. Now, if they also happen to be at your game, double the points and great. The other thing we're going to do in the email is you are going to ask them to meet with them in person. So I do want you to email the teams that are going to showcase. So just to review, stage 1, stage 1, stage 1, email the schools that are your dream schools. Limit this for right now to like 10 to 15. Just because the showcase is important and we can follow up with them afterwards. The rest of the schools need to be the schools at the showcase. Yeah. Okay. We will give you the template to use. It's pretty aggressive. Mom, you have an amazing pamphlet. Keep that pamphlet. It has your context. So you already did it. We have an assignment for you to make one, but you already made one. So great. The last other piece to that is you are going to send your video as is. Um, what's important and it's not hard, but it is key when you— I'll have a video for you, but you're going to go here to videos. Okay. You're going to add your video to the system. Okay, when you add the video to the system and you click coaches and you click write email, you're going to insert your video and it will pop up like this. So people will be more likely to watch it even though it's a short. So don't worry about that. The other thing is I need you to post that video. You have an Instagram? I want you to go make a soccer Instagram. I need you to post that video on Instagram. They're more likely to click Instagram for some reason than YouTube Shorts. I couldn't tell you why, but it's a thing. So when you can, it's not a huge rush, but at some point, because then we're going to send them your soccer Instagram account because you're not some— you're not like me. I'm a 6. I pass left and right. Boring. You're fun to watch. You dribble, you score. It's cool. So put that on Instagram. Okay. Okay. And then we can follow up with that. Now that's all you're gonna do. I don't want you to do anything else. There's a bunch of other things you're gonna get told to do. Don't do any of that. Just do that. Then what you're gonna do is you are gonna book us for after the showcase, and then we're gonna take any game footage from that and we're gonna make a proper Every Touch video, a proper highlight video. And then we will be following up with those schools that you were at the showcase with. You'll tell us how it went, and then we will go back to our kind of traditional plan and I will tell you some camps to go to. Okay. Yeah, Mom, does that sound good? Okay. All right, we have to run. You have to go run, and then we'll talk to you very
