Anybody else have a problem with this publication? In previous years I haven't gotten all the issues due on my subscription.
Last year I wrote an article for them, and they said that in lieu of payment, I would receive a free subscription. Have not gotten one issue since - not even the one my article was in!

Have not gotten one issue since - not even the one my article was in! i never got payment or free subscription for my article(got free advertising for my dvds though!) but i did get about 20 copies of the mag with my article in it. keep after dan, i think hes a busy guy. just email him and remind him. |

coachcalande, did email him and website addresses twice. We're all busy guys, personally and professionally. Don't like guys who don't follow thru on promises or responsibilities.

I have had numerous problems with them.
I have found many of their articles to be incompete with several mistakes and unfinished diagrams. They also said they would pay to publish my articles but I never saw a dime.
There product has seemed to improve but I am still skeptical.
I would stick with American Football Coach Monthly if I were you.

Don't like guys who don't follow thru on promises or responsibilities. yup, i am the same way, cant stand "coaches" who dont follow through on trades and that sort of thing.... and thats why i ship my stuff in the next day or two. I wonder if a few other authors have this complaint? there were errors in the article I wrote too but i figured "it happens", looks like part of my trap explanation was cut out...anyhow, id just stay on them. I enjoy the magazine though I dont have a subscription. |

just weighing in...but, they wanted us to advertise them on our board. they asked if we could make them a front page banner... in return they would link us on their board and do some other things. nothing ever happened on their end, so they were never given the banner.
what this tells me is.... they often bite off more than they can chew. i assume their intentions are good, but the time to put it into play is not well managed.
