1. Sign Up and Profile Creation:

• Registration: Athletes will start by signing up on the Victory Link website. During registration, you’ll provide basic information like your name, sport, college, and areas of expertise.

• Profile Setup: Once registered, you’ll create a profile that showcases your background, achievements, and the type of advice or mentorship you’re offering. This is where you can upload photos, add a bio, and highlight your unique skills and experiences.

2. Setting Your Availability and Pricing:

• Availability: You’ll have the flexibility to set your own availability, deciding when and how often you want to respond to messages. Whether you’re available daily or just a few times a week, it’s entirely up to you.

• Pricing: You’ll also set your own rates for the services you provide. This could be for single message responses, bundled responses, or more comprehensive services like reviewing mechanics or creating personalized workout plans. Victory Link will offer guidelines to help you set competitive prices, but the final decision is yours.

3. Receiving and Responding to Messages:

• Notification System: When a younger athlete or their parent reaches out for advice, you’ll receive a notification on the Victory Link platform. Notifications can also be sent via email or text, depending on your preferences.

• Responding: You can review the message and respond at your convenience. Your response time will be displayed on your profile, giving clients a clear idea of what to expect. The platform supports text-based messaging, and you can also share videos or other media if that’s part of your offering.

4. Managing Client Interactions:

• Message Threads: All interactions with clients are organized into message threads within the platform, making it easy to manage multiple conversations. You’ll be able to track your responses, set reminders, and even save frequently used responses for efficiency.

• Client Matching: Victory Link uses an automated system to best pair you with clients whose needs align with your expertise. This ensures that you’re matched with clients who will benefit most from your guidance.

5. Ongoing Support and Profile Management:

• Profile Updates: You can update your profile, availability, and pricing at any time through the website. This allows you to adjust your offerings based on your schedule and any changes in demand.

• Support: Victory Link provides ongoing support to help you succeed on the platform. Whether you need help setting up your profile, managing clients, or optimizing your pricing, our team is here to assist.

6. Making an Impact:

• Feedback and Reviews: Clients can leave reviews and feedback on your profile, helping you build a strong reputation on the platform. Positive reviews can lead to more clients and higher earning potential.

• Expanding Your Reach: As you build your presence on Victory Link, you’ll have the opportunity to reach more clients and make a meaningful impact on the lives of younger athletes who look up to you.
