If you’ve dabbled in giving online, AKA remote, sports lessons, you’ve likely felt the massive time-sucker that is negotiating and scheduling Zoom, FaceTime, or Instagram Live chats with multiple parents.
Let alone the client management stress of keeping track of everyone's payments, personal details, progress, and the drills and skills that you have already introduced in previous sessions.
If not live-streaming lessons, the other remote coaching option did previously involve parents sharing their athlete’s footage.
You might advertise for this service on your website, but you, likely, negotiated how to do this footage analysis process via text, email, or through social media.
Then used a file-sharing software (DropBox, Google Drive, WeTransfer) to share the athlete’s footage – or, gasp, tried sending video files over email.
Then you likely used a video analysis software to analyze the footage.
Then used another software to send the footage and your completed lesson package back, and then logged into a payment software (Venmo, CashApp, PayPal) to check on the lesson transaction.
This makes no sense. You should not need four different pieces of software to conduct a single client lesson.
