The proven Framework For Getting Recruited

Clarity

We help families cut through the confusion of college recruiting with a clear, step-by-step roadmap tailored to your sport, class year, and goals. Our process removes the guesswork—so you know exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to position your athlete for maximum recruiting success.

Evidence

Our strategies are backed by real data—not opinions. We've analyzed thousands of recruiting outcomes to identify what actually works: video strategies, outreach timing, social media presence, and positioning tactics. You'll get research-driven insights that give your family a proven competitive edge.

Outreach

Getting recruited requires strategic, persistent outreach to the right coaches at the right time. We teach families how to craft compelling messages, build authentic relationships, and stand out in crowded inboxes—turning cold emails into campus visits and scholarship offers.

Exposure

Visibility is everything in recruiting. We help families maximize exposure through targeted showcases, tournaments, video content, and digital platforms—ensuring your athlete is seen by the coaches who matter most. More exposure means more opportunities.

Follow Up

Most families make initial contact—then disappear. We teach the art of strategic follow-up: staying on coaches' radars without being pushy, providing updates that build momentum, and maintaining relationships throughout the recruiting timeline. Consistency wins offers.

Decision

When offers come in, families need clarity to make the right choice. We help you evaluate scholarship packages, academic fit, athletic development opportunities, and long-term value—so you can confidently commit to the school that's the best fit for your athlete's future, both on and off the field.
