You should judge a book by its cover when it comes to college recruiting services. There are a lot of college recruiting services out there that do a horrible job in representing themselves. A lot of these services have lousy websites with very generic information. If you’re trying to persuade a parent to write you a check, having an unprofessional website would definitely hurt your business.
Then there are other recruiting services that tell student athletes that they can “guarantee” that they’ll get them into a division one school. Anyone who makes such a guarantee to a student athlete and their parents to get their business should be kicked in the ass.
The reason many of these recruiting services make ridiculous statements is because of money. You should never make promises to student athletes and parents about what you can do for them. You should focus on the facts and what you can do for them based on those facts.
In the world of college recruiting services, money is the root of all evil because so many student athletes and parents are in need of their help and expertise.
I found a so-called college recruiting service the other day and I would have to say this is a classic example of a horrible website which would represent in my opinion a horrible recruiting service. Check them out: stats-r-us.com.
This recruiting service should be kicked in the ass for even thinking that they have the right to be a college recruiting service. Trust me, there are thousands of other college recruiting services that have websites that are just as messed up as this one.
College recruiters all need to represent themselves as professional business people at all times or just get out the game.
