Marketing Consultation

$50/half hour

According to a 2017 CareerBuilder study, 70% of employers use social media to screen candidates and 57% are less likely to interview a candidate they can’t find online. College coaches operate in much the same manner. Playing statistics will get you a look, but your social capital will help you rise above comparable competition. Spend time with our digital marketing expert to review your online personal brand and identify areas for improvement. Bring your resume for copy editing, your jersey for a headshot, and we’ll provide you with an e-mail template for reaching out to coaches that will have you standing out from automated recruiting software e-mails.
