Description
ProBook is the all-in-one platform for any sports team. It streamlines team management by integrating the Five Pillars of coaching excellence. This includes tracking and fostering athlete development and team culture by centralizing social media, events, profiles, nutrition, film, schedules, communication, and much more.  However, ProBook has a huge competitor - the gorilla in that space... so how are they wedging themselves in? I discussed their early success and future plans with founder and CEO, Andre Harakas. He outlined how ProBook is positioning their platform to outperform and displace their main competition. He discussed targeting their message via social media and coach ambassadors, and the status of their beta launch. We even talked about how they are already looking to future integration, including AI.  Topics In This Episode Offering flexibility to enter the market: replacement of main competitor OR as a companion Strategic partnership development, including celebrity athletes How are they gaining market share?
