Beware of Telemarketers Posing as Scouting Services

Telemarketers are not high school athletic scouts, so beware of their ploy to draw you in with a cheap promo deal.

Scouting services which return to clients and ask for upgrades are ripping off the innocent, pure and simple. It’s happening with so-called reputable scouting firms and it’s time this practice is exposed for what it is — a way to dig deeper into your pocket.

When considering a scouting service, don’t be duped into a low-end deal which really does nothing but to set you up for a bigger investment down the road. Realize from the get-go that what you need which is a comprehensive promotional package that effectively gets your info in the hands of college coaches on an ongoing basis, not just a one-time shotgun approach or through a Web site where coaches have to scour through scores of unqualified prospects to find you, the legit college prospect.

To insure that you are getting what is required to get you noticed by college coaches, ask these essential questions of any scouting service which should reveal if there ‘s something hidden in their ploy to lure  you in only to return later with their hand out and an explanation of what you “really” need:

  1. Why is this program so cheap? 
  2. Will this program do everything I really need to get college coaches to notice, evaluate and recruit me?
  3. Will you ever come back to me asking for more money to pay for a more effective promotional program?
  4. Is it true that you are a telemarketing company that calls prospects from a roster book of athletes you have never actually seen play their sport?
  5. How can you realistically represent me to college coaches if you have not seen me play or met me in person?

The answers to these questions are meant to get you to the truth of what a scouting service is trying to accomplish.  If you are not satisfied with their answers, then hang up the teleph0ne and call the world’s oldest, most reliable and legitimate scouting organization, National Scouting Report.  If you want an honest approach with honest answers, call NSR today at (800) 354-0072 and ask to speak to our College Coach Liaison who will put you in touch with one of our On-the-Ground scouts.  We are real scouts, not telemarketers.
