The Recruit-Me Athletic Scholarship Podcast with Brent Hanks

Your recruiting challenges are not unique. Other families have faced the same ones. Some families have overcome them. Others have failed.

In this episode, recruiting expert Jon Fugler zeroes in on the #1 recruiting challenge athletes and parents face. He delivers three solutions that you can apply almost immediately.

But there's more to it than this one biggest challenge. He calls this the #1 external challenge, but there are internal obstacles that slow families down, too.

Jon reveals three internal obstacles and how to overcome them.

This episode will help bring clarity to your recruiting efforts. It will also help you discard the bad and apply the good.
