⚽︎ How I’m Growing My Soccer Training Business (And How You Can Too)
If you’re a soccer trainer, you and I probably have something in common: we love coaching—but we also want to build a business that gives us freedom, consistency, and the ability to make a real impact on the players we train.
For years, I treated my soccer training business training like a hobby. I’d take whatever clients came my way, charge whatever I felt was “reasonable,” and hope referrals would magically keep coming. And if you’re anything like I was, you know that’s not a real business strategy.
Everything changed when I finally sat down and asked myself one question:
“What would happen if I ran my soccer training business like an actual business—not a side hustle?”
The answer?
My client roster grew.
My income started to stabilize.
My sessions became more valuable.
And I finally created a system that didn’t rely only on word of mouth.
In this article, I’m going to break down exactly what I did so you can do the same.
I Stopped Letting Clients Decide My Worth
Most soccer trainers price themselves based on competition—not value.
I used to do the same.
“Ah… maybe I should also charge $40… that seems fair?”
But here’s something I learned very quickly:
Parents don’t pay for your time. They pay for your transformation.
Once I positioned myself as a results-driven trainer—not a “session seller”—I was able to charge rates that matched the value my program delivered.
My advice to you:
Stop hourly pricing
Start transformation-based packages
Sell the outcome, not the minutes
I Built a Brand Instead of an Instagram Page
Posting drills is NOT marketing.
Trust me… I tried that.
What actually works?
Clear messaging. Consistent demonstrations of value. A brand that feels professional.
Once I refined my niche, my message, and my visual identity, parents started reaching out to me… not the other way around.
If you don’t choose your niche, the market chooses one for you—and usually it’s the low-budget parents.
I Stopped Waiting for Referrals and Built a Simple Lead System
Referrals are great… but they’re not predictable.
Predictable growth needs a lead flow system.
Nothing complicated. No fancy tools.
Just a 3-step funnel:
Awareness (content + local visibility)
Value (free resources, messaging, social proof)
Conversion (DM scripts, follow-ups, calls)
Once I learned how to turn a follower into a lead—and a lead into a paying client—everything scaled faster.
I Protected My Time
Most soccer trainers burn out very quickly not because of training… but because of:
inconsistent scheduling
cancellations
late payments
last-minute changes
I used to let clients walk all over my schedule.
Then I built systems:
automated bookings
automated reminders
clear policies
session structure
simple onboarding
The result?
More time. More control. More professionalism.
I Stopped Thinking Like a Trainer and Started Thinking Like a Business Owner
This was the biggest mindset shift for me.
A business owner:
plans ahead
sets goals
tracks revenue
understands marketing
creates systems
positions themselves as premium
When I made that shift, everything changed.
This is exactly what I help other trainers do now.
