 Hey coach, welcome back to the channel. If you haven't yet, make sure you subscribe to stay up to date with all the latest content that we put out. Now today I wanna talk about building and scaling your football academy business to the next level. Okay, so if you're a coach in football soccer and you have a business, you wanna get it to the next level, then this video will really help you to do that. All right, I'm gonna show you three things that you can do today in order to build your business further to grow and scale and get it to the next level. Right, number one is create a referral program within your business. So by referral program, I mean that any current clients that you have who are currently part of your training program, I want you to reach out to them at the end of this month and offer them a discount for their upcoming subscription if they refer a new client into your business. Okay, so what you wanna do is you wanna have a system in place where you are connecting with your current clients and getting on a five minute call with them to talk about this referral program. Okay, so you wanna schedule a call with each one of your current clients, get on the phone, the call doesn't have to be long, it can be three to five minutes, but just explain to them that you're setting up a referral program and this is what is included. Okay, there's a lot of different things that you can offer as part of your referral program. You can offer a 50% discount of next month's subscription. You can offer them a month free training. You can offer them a free clinic or private training session. Okay, there's a hundred ways that you can offer more value to clients in return of them referring a like-minded client into your business. Okay, so the first way to build and scale your business add a referral program, reach out to all your current clients at the end of this month and get them onto this program where they're referring clients to your business from people they know, okay? If you do this and you do this properly, you could add anywhere between five, 10 or 15 new clients by the end of this month, okay? That's the first way. Now the second way is build partnerships with local clubs, okay? So if you are a private business, okay, and you specialize in one-on-one training, you do group training, one way to grow and scale is build partnerships with local clubs, okay? So what you wanna do is you wanna speak to the decision maker, which is normally the club director, the club president, or someone that is in charge of the club and talk to them about the value of your program. Talk to them about how this industry in terms of private training, personal training is going to continue to get bigger and bigger. There's going to be more parents who are looking and searching for individual development and explain to them how your program can help their players if you guys build a partnership within the club, okay? I know a lot of coaches who are currently working in partnership with local clubs. Some of these coaches go into the clubs maybe once or twice every month and they run clinics for the club. Some of them do individual training with specific players of different age groups. Some of them do goalkeeping training. They go into the club and put together goalkeeping training sessions. Okay, so there's a lot of things that you can do in order to grow and scale your business by building a partnership with a local club or organization, okay?

We can jump on Zoom. I can talk to you a little bit more about this or you can send me questions to makemoneycoachingsportsatgmail.com, right? So that's the second way. The third way is your social media presence. Is to build and scale a brand or a business you have to be active on social media. Now, something we teach our coaches to do is to use social media as a tool to grow the business. So what you want to become now is you want to become a producer, not so much a consumer. When you are a producer means you're producing content in order to help your business attract more parents to your program. So you want to create content which is appealing to parents. You want to create content that's engaging. You want to create content also that touches on certain pain points that parents are having with their child, okay? And also you want to use social media in order to connect with parents, okay? So that might be through direct messaging parents, telling them about your program, trying to build some type of connection, relationship where you can then close them into an evaluation session in your business. Also, any parents who engage in your content such as likes, comments, right? We want to build a connection with them as well and we want to try and lead that connection onto a sales call where we can get that parent on a call, see if they're a good fit for our program and then close them into an evaluation session, okay? So the three ways to grow your business today, okay? To build and scale to the next level is number one, make sure that you're setting up a referral program once a month where you're reaching out to your current clients and you're asking your parents for referrals. Number two, build local connections with other organizations in your program, sorry, in your local area or any clubs, okay? So building partnerships in your local area with clubs or other organizations will help to build and scale your business to the next level because if it's set up correctly, okay? That club organization can be bringing you leads, bringing you clients regularly month after month. And the third one is stay active on social media and use social media to produce, not consume. They can use social media to create engaging content, to connect with parents, reach out to parents and to try and close parents onto a sales call which then leads into an evaluation session. You'll be able to add five or 10 new clients per month which will help to build and scale your business to the next level, okay?
