My boyfriend is 18 and very good at soccer. He is going to leave for college next year and study sports management. He has had offers from many schools asking for him to be on their team but he is not sure whether or not he wants to stay committed to the sport or start up a new life style. he has decided that whatever he does, he wants to be a private soccer trainer. He has had about three clients recently so far. but his mother is pretty much at the top of the local soccer organization and he is very close with college coaches and club coaches. he has set up a guy to make him a website and his mother is sending out a mass email to the soccer club which is about 6,000 people. If he markets himself well and does a good job with the training, how well do you think this will work out for him? how much would you say he should start out charging at this point and as he grows as a trainer, how much should he pay later? what should he expect from the business and if he is able to get a regular client basis then could he later rely on this job only? like if he relied on just this job, how many people would you say he should stay regular with and how much should he charge them? for now while hes in school he’s planning on only doing this a couple days a week but when hes older it would become a full time thing. im kinda not familiar with all this stuff and i dont really know what all to ask so if you know anything, please just tell me as much as possible. any information and advice and tips would help. Thank you so much!

My boyfriend wants to be a private soccer trainer when he’s older. He’s 18 now and is already starting off. He is getting a website made and sending a mass email to the people of the local soccer organization. he’s planning to start at charging about 20 to 25 dollars an hour. he is later going to study sports management in college and is going to spend a lot of money on helpful equipment once he gets some promising clients. now here are my questions.
1. If he markets himself well, how many kids do you think he could get for the summer?
2. Could he later make a full time job with this?
3. How many clients do you think he could get by the time he gets regular with this later in his life?
4. how much should he charge after a few more years of experience
5. What are some good tips and advice for starting this business up?
6. How long should he expect to work at this for it to really become a serious job?
7. when he does this way later in his life and has more time, how many kids do you think he would be able to get with his experience and marketing.
By the way, he is planning on having an extra job on the side like teaching but if its possible for him to rely on just this he will. So i guess thats just what were trying to figure out. If its common and how hard it would be to have this be his main job. he is on some of the best teams in the state and plans to play college soccer as well.
