Intro + 30 Day Focus- Tony Zuniga Corona, The Institute
**Body:** Tony Zuniga I played JC at Rancho Santiago College. Back to back state champions. I was awarded MVP both years. I got inducted into the HOF for my college in 2021. Drafted by the SF giants in 96, played 10 years of pro ball. In those 10 years I played for the Giants, Blue Jays, Mariners, and Brewers. Who you are (playing/coaching background) Ive been doing lessons for 20 years and have had travel ball experience since 2012 with the Tustin Scorpions, my organization. Where you give lessons (facility / field / cage / private) I do lessons at a facility, I average about 15, 30minute lessons per week. My rates are 110$ an hour. How many lessons per week you’re doing now and your typical rate Where things feel messy or inconsistent right now (schedule, parents, promotion, etc.) My biggest problem is I don't promote myself enough. I know I'mknowledgeable in the sport i just need to get myself out there on social media. Copy/paste and fill this in: “In the next 30 days, I will get to [25-30] lessons per week (or add +[Y] lessons/week) by installing my [booking / content / retention] system.” Hit **Post**.

Tony we missed each other by a couple years. I was in Scottsdale '91-'93 with the A's. Nothing like the Arizona Rookie League. Lol! Looking forward to your success.

Yeah, I loved Scottsdale! Probably too much. I spent three years in rookie ball😂. Finally got going when I was with the Mets in A/AA and AAA.
Baseballsmith
Hi! My name is Brandon Smith and my training facility is Baseballsmith located in Acworth, GA I am a husband, dad and soon to be grandpa! After playing 5 years of professional baseball I started Baseballsmith (1996). Over the years I've worked with thousands of families in the metro Atlanta area. My goal is to use baseball to teach kids that they can do hard things if they take it one step at a time. Some of the kids I've worked with have made it to the MLB, Division 1 and other levels of college baseball. My hope for all of them is that they enjoyed their experience in baseball more because of our time spent together. Currently, I do about 12-15 hours per week of lessons at an avg. hourly rate of $105. This is significantly down from years past where 25-30 hours/week was the norm. The biggest bottleneck is acquiring new clients. I have never advertised or marketed my training program. Relying solely on word of mouth and repeat clients has worked for a long time. However, I now need to run my business like a business and implement a process to get clients for myself and my other instructors. In the next 30 days, I will get to 20 hours of paid lessons/week by improving my client acquisition system.

Thanks, Trent! I look forward to learning from you in the area of sports psychology.
Reconnect with old clients
I am starting to build out my Instructor Command Center with clients that I haven't seen in 3 months. What is a good text to them without it sounding too "salesy"? Thanks!
