College Recruiting Weekly Podcast

On this episode, join host Dan Tudor as he drives back to the airport after leaving a client meeting with a coaching staff who works one-on-one with the experts at Tudor Collegiate Strategies. Dan talks about a topic that prompted a question from the coach, which centers around the idea of recruiting, messaging and telling the program's story to your entire prospect list right from the start - not just the top prospects, but everyone. - Why full recruiting is imperative. - How to execute it the right way. - Going deep with your messages, when it comes to content and ideas. - Going wide with your message by spreading it out over the entire recruiting process, start to finish. - What happens when you don't. This is an important core communication message for coaches in all sports, at all levels. Listen, take notes, and tell your fellow coaches on your campus to follow, subscribe and listen too!

How can you take your prospects through the different levels of increasing interest as you spend time in the recruiting process? That's a question that Dan Tudor addressed while he was on a campus working with an athletic department, and he shares what today's recruits tell his staff at Tudor Collegiate Strategies when it comes to what keeps them moving forward, and how they slowly build a 'feeling based' decision that grows into a 'logically justified' decision. And, why that transition has to be managed by the coaches recruiting the athlete. Want to watch this presentation in addition to listening to it?

Coaches work hard to get to the end of the process when the prospects they really want might be ready to commit. But what's the right way to ask that big question? More importantly, what are some of the ways coaches are trying to get commitments that often don't work, and result in a loss of that prospect they've worked so hard for? On today's episode, Dan Tudor talks about recent conversations he has had with coaches about this topic, what they tend to end up doing that hurts their chances of getting their prospect to say yes, and some proven ideas on what to do instead.
