Now, if you don't want to do that, just simply send me an email to makemoneycoachingsportsatgmail.com and I will respond there. So, today I want to talk about how to get started in seven days, right? So, how to start your soccer coaching business in under seven days. So, something I've been doing since the start of this company and since I've been working with Ben, right? I speak with coaches every single day who are starting their business. They're already in business. They might have anywhere between four to eight clients and they want to grow or they have a steady business that is bringing in two to five K per month and they want to get to the next level, right? So, this video is predominantly for someone that is maybe starting up at the beginning, so at the beginning phase and wants to start today, wants to set everything up so that they can start working with clients and essentially make money coaching soccer. So, three things which I'm going to share with you today are three things that I share with most coaches who when we get on a Zoom call, they ask me about how do I get started with my business, okay? So, the first one is you have to set up an LLC, okay? So, for those that don't know what an LLC is, it's essentially a company, right? A company that you can operate out of and trade under that name, okay? So, what I would recommend for you, find a CPA, so an accountant in your local area, they will be able to give you more professional advice on this and they will be able to lead you in the right direction how to go about sitting up an LLC, right? Working with a lot of coaches, I know this isn't complicated and you can pretty much set up an LLC within 24 hours, okay? But if you need more help and guidance with this, reach out to a CPA in your local area, whichever city you are and they will be able to give you some more professional advice and give you a step-by-step guide on how to get that started, but you need to have a business in order to start trading and working with clients, okay? So, the first bit to get started in seven days, within seven days, okay? You need to have an LLC so that you can start trading under your business name, okay? Now, the second one is business insurance, okay? So, business insurance is really, really important and it's one that a lot of coaches don't take seriously because most coaches think that nothing's going to happen, okay? But the moment something happens, even your client gets injured, all right? Or, you know, you break equipment during your session or you hire out an indoor facility and one of your clients smashes a window or breaks something, okay? Once something like this happens in the business, okay, coaches then realize, oh, shoot, right, I should have had business insurance, okay? So, business insurance is really important and it's something that's going to cover you, right? It's going to cover you if a client gets injured during your session and, you know, unfortunately, we've seen this happen. Parents try to sue you for that injury, okay? And for the costs of whether their child needs an operation or any medical fees that is required, we have seen it where parents have, unfortunately, tried to sue coaches over those injuries, right? So, having insurance covers you in the event of that happening. Also, if you want to go and hire out an indoor venue or facility in your local area, so that'd be maybe a school gym, a church, okay? Any way that you can use indoor for your sessions, right? Those facilities and venues are going to require you to have some sort of insurance in order to be able to go and train inside those facilities, okay? And that essentially covers their back in case you or your clients break anything during the session, okay? So, if something does happen, okay, if something does happen and the school or whichever facility you're using, you know, they send you the bill for anything that broke, then your insurance can cover that, obviously, depending if you have the right insurance. But that's essentially why we want insurance and we need to aim to get the right insurance. Now, this is something you need help with because I know a lot of coaches don't know where to look when it comes to business insurance, right? Send me an email to make money coaching sports and I can show you and share with you a couple of companies which coaches in our sports accelerator program are currently using in their business, okay? So, if you're based out in the US, right, and you need business insurance and you don't know where to look, send me an email, I'll be more than happy to respond with some of the companies that our coaches have used. Now, I know we've got a lot of viewers as well from the UK, so if you are in the UK as well and this is something that you want help with as well, send me an email as well, I know a number of companies that are very good and have helped UK-based coaches that I've worked with as well, okay? So, first one is LLC. Right now, if you're in the UK watching, then an LLC essentially would be a private limited company, okay? So, setting up a private limited company where you become the director of that company which is going to help you not only to start trading and start working with clients, but also, it's going to help when it comes to your taxes as well and you'll know how, what taxes to pay depending on how your business is set up legally in whichever country or city you are in, okay? Now, the third one I look at is, right, we've set up the business legally, we've got insurance now, so we are covered. Now, the third one I look at is, do we have a facility or do we have a location that we can train our clients out of, okay? So, for some coaches, this might be your local park, this might be a school gym you rent out, this might be a fiver side field, this might be a local turf field, whichever city you're in, okay? So, wherever you are in whichever city you are having a steady location that you train all your clients out of, it's going to make your business a lot easier to manage because essentially all you have to do, once you have the business set up legally, once you're insured, now you can just go out and market your training and your program to clients, well to potential parents and prospects and start to get traction and start to invite those prospects to maybe a free training session with you so you can get in front of them and they can experience your training. But essentially, what coaches do when they're starting up, they have multiple places that they're training, so they might use a local park, then they might have a school they train out of or they go to clients' houses, right? What I like personally, and this is something that you don't have to go with, but this is something I like personally, is I like to have a steady location, right? So, one place that all my clients are coming to me for the training. That way, I don't have to spend money on gas, on petrol to get to from one place to the other, I'm not driving, right? I'm not traveling, all I have to do is I have to travel to one venue, one facility, one location and I know that all my clients are going to meet me there and with all the training session is going to be done there, okay? Now, when you do do this and when you do find your perfect location, make sure that it's somewhere where you have permission to use, okay? So, I know in the US, so if you are US coach watching, I know in some places across the US, you need a permit in order to use a local park, right? So, make sure that you find out what if you need a permission or not, because if you do need a permit to use that place, maybe it's worth that investment because the worst thing you want to do is start training your clients in either one-on-one or in groups or small groups and then suddenly you get kicked off the field because you don't have the right documentation to be at that place, okay? So, make sure that any venue or location that you do use, that you one, you have permission to use it and two, that it's available for when you want to run your training sessions, okay? So, again, another example, the worst thing you can do is you're running your session and then halfway in another group comes in and they say to you, right, we have this space booked at this time, this time and then suddenly you have, you know, six to eight clients that you're working with and you have to move your training session somewhere else, okay? Or I've seen it as well, we have to cancel early because we've got nowhere else to go, okay? So, also, it just looks bad. It looks bad as the business owner and it can really kill your session and the flow of your session as well because if you have it, if you're in the session, you know, everything's going well and then suddenly you have to stop it. You have to get everyone to collect their stuff, collect the equipment and you've got to move. That just ruins the flow of the session and also, you know, the chances are the kids that you train will go home and tell their parents about it and if parents are, you know, listening or hearing that, then it gives your business a very bad impression, okay?
