Aaron Byrd owns one of the most successful soccer  training businesses in the country.  As a former college and  professional soccer players, Aaron clearly has the skills necessary to  help improve a soccer player’s abilities, but it’s not the soccer  training that makes the biggest difference in people’s lives – it’s the  lessons he teaches through his training programs.

Aaron started his business by helping two kids of a friend who wanted  to get better at soccer.  Two turned into four, four turned into eight,  and before he knew it, Byrd had over 100 kids enrolled in camps and  training programs.  Since then, his business has expanded exponentially  and he has hired a staff of coaches that implement his programs in  multiple locations throughout southeast Michigan.

As his business grew, Aaron realized what an impact he was making on  young athletes.  That realization made him take that role more  seriously, and it has become a huge part of his business and life.

In this episode, Aaron shares real-life examples of how he makes an  impact through his business, and he talks about his journey as both a  coach and business-owner.  You can learn more about Aaron Byrd and his  Next Level Training soccer programs at http://www.next-leveltraining.com/ or follow him on Instagram at NLTsoccer
