“I have a message for all the experienced tennis coaches reading this: you should start your own private tennis coaching business, because there’s a lot of money you’re leaving on the table right now.”

So if you are working in a tennis club and have been thinking about starting your own tennis program, then this article is just for you.

Here is a step-by-step plan that any tennis coach can start using today and start earning 6 figures doing it in less than a year.

Your first step is this,

Work Those Numbers.

I would start cold calling companies and schools and create a good sales pitch for my calls and practice it daily, contacting at least 200 prospects a day, yes I said 200.

Look, your goal here is to fill your sales pipeline with as many new leads as you can early on.

Then your next goal is to follow up as much as you can with those same prospects.

It is also important to develop a great attitude while doing your sales activities.

Because if you don’t have one, the next step won’t matter at all.

Which one is this.

Sample lessons.

After completing your sales funnel, make sure they sign up for a free trial lesson with you.

This will give you the opportunity to surprise them with your training style and connect with them on a more personal level.

Look at every tennis prospect you get like, Long-term relationship.

They are 5 years or more and that means that you give them value for 5 years, and this goes far beyond the court.

Help your students in any way you can, this could help them find good teachers, schools and places to shop.

Become a great resource for them and they will give you tons of free word of mouth marketing.

And the last tip here.

Take advantage of those relationships.

See your students as part of your extended and growing family.

Don’t look at them as just another student in your program, because if you do, you won’t be able to connect with them in a way that encourages them to give you tons of referrals.

The fact is that referrals are earned by providing great service.

If you are not getting many referrals, then you are providing average or below average service to your students.

Which will actually put you in the same ranking as 90% of the other sports clubs out there.

I’ve been reading somewhere that 85% of the people who work in these clubs don’t like their job and to that I say, “Great, then find out what you like to do and go do it for the rest of your life.” .

Coaching tennis should be your passion and if it isn’t then sit down today and find out what it is and find a way to get paid.

Sorry guys, that’s the end of my rant!!

But, seriously.

Those are 3 tips that can help you start your own private tennis coaching business and then have you earning 6 figures in 6 months or less.

I hope the information helps!!
