I wanted to see other coaches opions on this. The main thing would be a website. With a most likely monthly fee. From $8 a month to $12 depending on what you wanted in your package. My idea is everyday post something offense related. With a play diagram and an article explaining that play. Now if you have the plan with diagram and video. Then there will also be a video in there with a coach drawing the play and explaining it. Maybe even having players run the plays on a field. (not sure if I could do this yet) now the third plan would include Game film, which I still need to find out how to get my hands on some. I know some websites have free flim. But I still need more than just a couple.
But the cool part about this would be I'd have a defense coach you'd also post the same day on the same subject to say how he'd stop these certain plays/offenses with differnt defenses. This Company would also travel to do Clinics and make playbooks for coaches who want them and also help install this offenses or defenses.
This would take some time to get started. But not a whole lot. This is my dream. And I'm definitely ready to start. If anybody is interested or has any suggestions please let me know!!
Thank you!!

I don't know what "stargies" are but I'm not going to pay for them.
We have this site, then blogs by people such as Deuce, Brophy, Chris Brown, others that are free.
Coaches can also go to clinics such as Glazier, Nike, and at colleges-universities to get what you're talking about if they want to spend money on it.

Coach, the point of my idea is to make it the Netflix of football. Plus the money goes towards buying flim, dvds, and getting the best coaches to post something. I don't have that money, I don't run the best football website out there |

The point is you are trying to create a business to fill a need that doesn't exist.

I don't have that money, I don't run the best football website out there Coach, I love the concept, but I think it would be very difficult and unlikely that you would get coaches to pay a monthly fee for this....at least at the beginning. From my observations, most of the coaches who have had long term success with this have provided great online resources for FREE! Then, they produce products for purchase (books, e-books, e-courses, etc.). You need to convince the coaching community that you are knowledgeable and capable of providing valuable worthwhile resources prior to charging for them. There's just too much quality information out there for free. I think what Keith Grabowski has done is a great example of how to do it. |

I don't need a playbook... I need coaches who can coach and teach the techniques required to execute the playbook we already have in place. X's and O's don't mean jack if they don't do or aren't able to do what you need them to.

It can be done and people will pay for it..my question to you is, is it better than Xand O labs? If so or even comparable I think people would pay..nobody is just going to want to see a bunch of videos...Quality is the name of the game

Coaches, I like the idea of making it free at first. My worry is just not getting income to keep it it running. But I understand what your saying.
If this was free, would this be something you would look into and possibly invest time into?

Number one reason business fail in the first year is lack of capital. |

Think you need a better business plan than what you presented here. There seem to be many sites like that out there already, and many with free content as well. Your gonna need a ton of capital just to build a web site to do what you want it to do, then find a way for guys to contribute, need some connections to get some names guys to draw attention, and not to mention getting the film you speak of isn't exactly and easy task now days. Probably need some legal counsel as well to deal with all the intellectual property on the site. Sounds like you might need to do some more research on the inner workings of a web site like you want.

I wanted to see other coaches opions on this. The main thing would be a website. With a most likely monthly fee. From $8 a month to $12 depending on what you wanted in your package. My idea is everyday post something offense related. With a play diagram and an article explaining that play. Now if you have the plan with diagram and video. Then there will also be a video in there with a coach drawing the play and explaining it. Maybe even having players run the plays on a field. (not sure if I could do this yet) now the third plan would include Game film, which I still need to find out how to get my hands on some. I know some websites have free flim. But I still need more than just a couple. But the cool part about this would be I'd have a defense coach you'd also post the same day on the same subject to say how he'd stop these certain plays/offenses with differnt defenses. This Company would also travel to do Clinics and make playbooks for coaches who want them and also help install this offenses or defenses. This would take some time to get started. But not a whole lot. This is my dream. And I'm definitely ready to start. If anybody is interested or has any suggestions please let me know!! Thank you!! You can also PM me or email me. Email: sportsforchrist7@gmail.com -Travis R. plays and "strategies" are such a small part of football. id be more likely to pay for individual position training - (TEACH ME HOW TO COACH CENTERS!) that being said, there are coaches who make TONS of money selling their facemelter scheme.... that being said, im a professional web developer...contact me on linkedin |

My 2 cents.... A lot of folks think just because you have a domain name that people will be able to find you. How do you generate initial traffic and then how do you maintain traffic to keep your site from dying on the vine? You can have a great site but how do you think you're going to generate an audience?  |

You will also need an editor.
Joe Daniel Football already has what you're talking about + a million more things. I pay for it. It's a good service. I learn a lot, love the webinars, like talking ball.
I have stuff for free and never intend to charge anyone for anything.

that being said, there are coaches who make TONS of money selling their facemelter scheme.... that being said, im a professional web developer...contact me on linkedin I think this is an interesting business concept. I would never do it because I am still seeking the answers, but I bet a guy(s) with a couple state championships could start a football consulting business where they put together the total package. Program Philosophy, Schematic Philosophy, and whatever. If they made a manual and videos of what it takes to run the program and packaged it with coaches visit where they met with your coaches to break it all down as well as some kind of observation where they came to practices to observe the implementation of the program (is tempo good, are you getting guys reps that should, whatever). I think the right guys could make good money doing this, but like highlighted above actually being taught how to coach what you want would be greatly valuable to me. |

I think it's a cool idea, just hard when you have sites like jameslightfootball, Brophy, and a ton of guys on this very site blogging for free.
Heck, I post videos and analysis of what we do and I'll never charge for it. Nothing I do is revolutionary and even if it were I just like talking ball with guys.
