The problem it solves
It addresses the common issue of teams underperforming due to lack of cohesion and clear communication, providing strategies for improvement.
How it makes money
Charge per workshop or offer a package deal for a series of sessions, potentially with follow-up coaching for ongoing support.
Skills you need
Facilitation skills, knowledge of team dynamics, coaching experience, and event planning.
The market, and why this works now
The rise of remote collaboration tools like Zoom and Microsoft Teams has increased the demand for effective communication strategies among sports teams. A viable first-revenue move is to promote workshops through local sports organizations listed in a city's chamber-of-commerce directory. A significant risk is the labor intensity involved in planning and facilitating multiple sessions, which may strain resources and limit scalability.
