Here comes YEAR 8

Everyone knows it's tough for ANY business to succeed...Not to mention a business that's based on a brand new concept that's never been tried before!

We realized almost right off the bat that we weren't going to receive the support we naively expected would be automatic from tennis coaches and academies and tournament directors...Actually, we've had basically ZERO support whatsoever and every single bit of success we've had has been 1000% due to the hard work and sheer determination of DANNY AND ME.
NOBODY ELSE.

Wow, I don't have to tell you it's been tough and it's been challenging and it's been INCREDIBLY $TRE$$FUL (considering we have NO other source of income)...but we knew we were on to something and we're determined to make a difference. Fast forward to today...

Our College Recruit Videos have become so incredibly popular and I clearly remember the very first one we did...A father from Duluth contacted us in May of 2006...then a mother from Duluth...then a mother from Maitland, FL...and on and on it went. Just as we never expected to prepare Match Play Videos, we never, ever expected to prepare College Recruit Videos either.
We didn't expect to, that is,
UNTIL A PARENT ASKED US TO!

"Our college video had a tremendous impact on the college recruiting process for our daughter. One college coach even used her video to show other college recruits the type of high-level player they  were recruiting! Thanks, HIGH-TECH TENNIS!"

Father of High School Senior in Duluth, GA

"After all the time and money you've invested on behalf of your child, this is the BEST money you'll ever spend to get them well-deserved exposure!! This is truly a great product and your satisfaction is guaranteed! We highly recommend HIGH-TECH TENNIS!"

Very Satisfied Parents of Junior in Duluth, GA

"Great, great, GREAT...Awesome, awesome, AWESOME!!!
The online college you prepared for my daughter is WONDERFUL, Danny! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!"

Mother of High School Senior in Maitland, FL

It's fun to revisit some of the many wonderful moments we've experienced over the past seven years... I included three positive testimonials but I probably could have included three dozen or more. Just today I received two wonderful, supportive comments from two wonderful, supportive customers who have been "with" us since 2007 and 2008:

"The college video you did for me a few years ago really helped me a lot and I'm so glad you're helping my brother too!"(from older brother) ... "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE FOR MY SONS! WE LOVE HIGH-TECH TENNIS!"

Father of Two Juniors in Canton, GA

"Thanks so much for your assistance with my daughter's video and now with all that you've done to help my son. We've recommended you guys many, many times and we'll continue to do so. In fact, we just sent you another client. I really admire you guys for having the guts to step out ther and pursue something on your own and stick with it to make it work. I saw that you are branching out...
WOW-Awesome!"

Mother of Two Juniors in Goodlettville, TN

IMAGINE MY SURPRISE

to glance up and look at the very first dollar bill we ever made (framed & hanging on the wall above my desk) and realize something quite remarkable:

THIS IS YEAR #8

We've been inspired by Arthur Ashe to "start where we are, use what we have, and do what we can" ... by Elizabeth Edwards, who put forth a "daily effort to have a positive impact in the world"... and by Andre Agassi, who understands that "life is messy and unpredictable but our choices define our future."
Simply stated, our goal is to make a difference!

We always said that our goal was to make a difference...
and I think we're doing just that!

Our future looks bright and it certainly looks busy!

HIGH-TECH TENNIS & SPORTS VIDEO = WOWOWOW

"Often when you think you're at the end of something,
you're at the beginning of something else."~Mr. Rogers

We know that couldn't possibly do what we do without the great support of so many great people...you know who you are...
THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!

TRN's Julie Knows College Recruit Videos

GET THE RIGHT RECRUIT VIDEO
TO GET INTO THE RIGHT COLLEGE

If I tell you my name is Julie and I recommend College Recruit Videos from HIGH-TECH TENNIS, you might respond with a HO-HUM. But if I tell you about another Julie (Julie Wrege) who recommends College Recruit Videos from HIGH-TECH TENNIS, I'll bet your ears perk up a little higher.

Who's JULIE WREGE? Well, she was the first full-time women's tennis coach at Georgia Tech (79-85, 92) and her two tenures earned her a spot in the school's Hall of Fame. She's also the first female to receive an undergraduate degree in physics from Georgia Tech and she later added an M.S. and a Ph.D. Clearly, this is one smart Julie...but the BIGGEST reason you should care about what she says is that she's also co-founder of Tennis Recruiting.net, a website created to facilitate the tennis recruitment process. I would say that 99% of our customers are familiar with this site! :)

We met Julie for the first time at a local tournament many years ago - probably about 2006 - and she immediately GOT it: "What you are doing is GREAT work! We'll be glad to recommend HIGH-TECH TENNIS!" We had no real idea where our journey would lead us, but we were grateful for her support because ALL support is WELCOME support, LOL, and we LOVE people who GET it!

Over the years, she has recommended us and we've kept in touch, occasionally crossing paths on the tournament trail. We're both interested in how we might join forces to really serve the junior tennis community.

UPDATE: We're attaching recruit videos to TRN profiles and, in the spirit of letting the players PLAY & letting the parents decide WHERE the players play, we're offering our popular video services at NATIONAL SHOWCASE SERIES.

During a particularly unwelcoming, unhappy experience in Cary at the NCAA Division III Tennis Championships (you'd think we'd be used to pushback - but you'd be wrong), we were surprised but incredibly pleased to receive this email from Julie:

Hi Danny and Julie –

I just reviewed and accepted a college video that you made, and it was really good. I am so glad that you are doing this for the players!
I know it takes a lot of work, but the quality certainly shows through! As a former coach, I can tell you this is exactly what the coaches want to see!

Best regards,

Julie

Sure, it seems that everybody can record video these days, but everybody cannot prepare a professional College Recruit Video! It is (and should be) short, but that doesn't mean it's unimportant! In fact, the video that gets your junior into the right college (not to mention potentially saving thousands of dollars in the process) could be one of the most important decisions they'll ever make!!!

"After all the time and money you've invested on behalf of your child,

this is the BEST money you'll ever spend to get them well-deserved exposure!! This is truly a great product and your satisfaction is guaranteed! We highly recommend HIGH-TECH TENNIS!"

"I really like the way you do this video...
Having it online makes it so much easier for the coaches!"
Asst. Women's Tennis Coach at the University of Notre Dame

"The online college video from HIGH-TECH TENNIS has been a godsend!My daughter is getting emails from all over and we love having it online so we don't have to hassle with mailing stuff!"

Mother of High School Senior (and Repeat Customer Since October 2006) from Peachtree City, GA

If you ARE one of the top juniors in the country, coaches are probably already recruiting you---GOOD FOR YOU! But if you're NOT one of the top juniors in the country, you can still play college tennis...you just have to be smart about it. Just think about it for a minute. What are the chances that the coach at the college of your dreams is going to actually travel to watch you play??? Exactly - THAT is why you need a college recruit video. So why not be smart about it? Your first smart move is to contact HIGH-TECH TENNIS! :)

We use Dartfish, the world's leading video analysis software. Show the coach that you're a recruit on the CUTTING EDGE!!! And don't just send to 1 or 2 colleges...SEND YOUR VIDEO TO AS MANY AS YOU LIKE (at no extra cost) because you JUST NEVER KNOW. No matter what others might say, this is the very LAST place you want to pinch your pennies or submit something that's obviously homemade. You only get ONE chance to make a first impression - MAKE IT A GOOD ONE!!!

We CAN'T guarantee scholarships...
but we CAN guarantee your satisfaction...
and we do.
