Friend and colleague Dan Tudor interviewed me about my new book The Lasso Way: Leadership Lessons From The World's Favorite Football Coach.

On this episode, Dan Tudor talks in detail about the right kind of structure to build your June 15th or first contact calls and messages to new prospects around.

Have you ever had prospects you were really interested in, and previously communicating with, just drop off the face of the Earth? Stop replying to texts? Won't answer their phone? Of course you have. The big question to this all-to-common recruiting hurdle is, "how do you reinitiate contact and get things going again?" In this episode, Dan Tudor explains why this is likely happening, how to identify the right strategy moving forward, and how to execute that strategy. This could be a game changer for some of you - we hope you enjoy it!

In this episode, we listen in to part of Dan Tudor's two hour keynote talk at the USA Triathlon coaches convention, where he lays out the building blocks for constructing an effective recruiting message that tells the 'story' of your program.

Frank Sinatra sang it loudly: "I did it my way!"
