There are four things to get noticed and maximize your exposure to these college coaches. Number one is a good highlight video or a recruiting video. We want to put the best highlights of you over maybe a summer, fall, spring that we can pick from game highlights to showcase. But we're trying to paint a picture, your best qualities as a player. So we want to have that in a good video that this can maximize your exposure. Number two is social media. It can be a great tool to maximize exposure. Where you have a good profile, coaches can land on your page, they can read your short bio with all the information that they need. You can have your highlight video pinned at the top, you can tag certain coaches. Social media can be a tool to maximize your exposure because a lot of college coaches are on those platforms. And number three is your communication with these college coaches. Emailing, direct messaging only the information that they want to see, which is your athletic metrics, your academic metrics, you're highlighted. You got to have video when you send these college coaches. All right? And then number four, showcases in camps. Look for a two day event there that has a pro style and games. And then most importantly, that you know the college coaches that are going to be there, that they are the decision makers. Okay?
