RIGHT NOW is the BEST TIME to book high school sports…do you have your marketing kits ready? The grads have thrown their hats in the air, and the coaches are taking a sigh of relief, FOR THE MOMENT.
Many schools require staff and personnel to work for a week, or several days, past the last day of the classes for students, so NOW is the time to act! These couple of weeks following classes are PRIME TIME for speaking with any high school coach. During these weeks most coaches are more accessible and more willing to meet – and listen – to what you have to offer.
Take advantage of this calm time, as a lot of coaches are hard to locate during the school year. When they are busy it is tricky to find a “best time” to speak with them, and finding the “best time” that they are willing to listen can be even trickier! Very often they are busy, and will only give you a few minutes of their time, if that. You want to approach them at a time when they have more time to listen to you.
Plan ahead. Do you have your marketing kits together and ready to go? Be sure to have samples of unique products that will make you stand out among your competitors. Have a calendar with you for scheduling. Have testimonial letters from other schools and coaches. Be prepared to leave detailed information with the coach/decision maker so they can refer back to what you discussed.
One HUGE advantage to approaching school coaches now is that more than likely there areMANY coaches there at the same time. Once you’re in the school, track down other coaches of other sports. Now is also the best time to show up unannounced and visit with as many coaches as possible. Make the most of YOUR time and the coaches availability. Don’t miss these lucrative couple of weeks…the BEST TIME FOR BOOKING SCHOOL SPORTS!
