The 2nd Section of The Business of Being an Athlete is all about the hard work and preparation necessary to create a winning career in sport. In this section I share with you what I have learnt over the past 25 years, which will give you a great head start on your competitors.

If you take on board the tips and the advice, you’ll stand out amongst your fellow athletes, make enough money to be able to play sport full-time and realise your potential. And, once you’ve retired from sport, these skills will ensure a much easier transition into the business world.

I’ve broken the Preparation section into 5 easy to read packages.

In Preparation 2 you’ll learn all about:

• Other ways of generating income including from your current employer, how to develop and run a corporate event around your sport, how to run a fundraising event, government funding grants and scholarships.
• Sponsorship - what it means, learn the rules, how to start, cash vs. contra, who’s your perfect sponsorship match, preparing your offer, spreading the word, selling it, negotiating and contracts, delivering and taking care of your sponsors.
• Managing your money – investing, saving, accounting, tax, bad debts, insurance
• Keeping records – using journals, notebooks, scrapbooks, computers to keep records on competitors, achievements, media, income and expenses.

You also get access to over $300 worth of bonus gifts including:

• Your FREE template for recording your tax expenses.
