#44 How to Coach with SportsBox.

The Podcast introduces Sportsbox technology, a tool that enables coaches to assess and improve golfers' swing mechanics using video recordings and 3D analysis. The Podcast explained how to use Sportsbox to analyze specific movements, incorporate training aids, and set individual goals for players. He also showcases the integration of Sportsbox with other technologies like Foresight launch monitors. Participants can ask questions and learn more about how Sportsbox works.

Here are some ways Sportsbox helps coaches grow their business:

• Enhanced Communication with Students:



Sportsbox offers a home feed where coaches can communicate with students, like posts, and comment, which can encourage practice and create a "sticky" environment that keeps students engaged. Notifications alert coaches when students reach out, ask questions, or post swings, allowing quick responses. Coaches can also send bulk emails via the Sportsbox web portal.

• Monetization Opportunities:



Coaches can purchase student credits through Sportsbox and assign them to players. These credits can be integrated into lesson fees and used to upgrade students from a free account to a 3D player account, where they can record unlimited swings in the app. Since these swings are sent directly to the coach, they can comment and encourage students to return if they face challenges.

• Improved Training Insights:



Sportsbox uses single-camera motion capture technology to convert 2D videos into 3D data. Coaches can use the app to track metrics like pelvis and chest rotation, sway, and sway distance. The app also includes PGA and LPGA tour ranges for each position, allowing coaches to compare students' swings to those of professional golfers. Coaches can incorporate training aids like the Downshift Board or the Golf Forever training device to help students improve specific body movements.

• Student Motivation:



Sportsbox allows coaches to set goals for students focused on specific metrics and positions. The app tracks student progress toward these goals, which can encourage practice. Coaches can also use a comparison mode to show a student’s swing before and after using specific training aids. Additionally, the app’s monitor mode lets coaches demonstrate how a student’s body movements affect their ball flight.

• Credibility and Brand Awareness:



Sportsbox is used by coaches, tour players, and champions like Bryson DeChambeau. Using Sportsbox in lessons can enhance coaches' credibility with potential clients. Promoting the use of Sportsbox, such as sharing content on social media, can also help coaches increase brand awareness and attract more clients.

In addition to these benefits, Sportsbox offers training and certification for coaches. They can earn a Level 1 certification, which includes three PDR credits. This certification can help coaches improve their skills and further strengthen their credibility with potential clients.

It's important to note that the sources do not specifically discuss how coaches can use Sportsbox for business promotion or marketing. Coaches may consider using social media platforms or other marketing channels to highlight the advantages of using Sportsbox in their lessons and reach potential clients.
