| PressParade takes the path preferred by most college recruiters, coaches,
and college admissions officers - it
helps establish a personal, realistic relationship between you and a prospective
college.
Unlike "college recruiting services", PressParade puts YOU in control of the
college recruiting
process. We provide you with the tools and knowledge to both create a professional
profile and proactively market yourself. Whether you're a student
athlete, scholastic achiever, or musician, PressParade can help provide you with
a competitive edge in the college recruiting, admissions, and scholarship
process.
Here are some key benefits of the PressParade approach as they relate to student
athletes and college recruiting:
- A student athlete's information is presented in a concise, consistent, and easy-to-use format
that is appreciated by college recruiting personnel.
- Each profile can efficiently be distributed either on an attractive CD-ROM and/or
by an email that includes a link to the student's online PressParade profile.
- Included video provides a college coach or other college recruiting personnel with an immediate feel for a student athlete's talent.
Unlike other online products that contain a single video, a PressParade profile can
include multiple video clips highlighting specific skills. Also,
PressParade can play video clips frame-by-frame via keyboard control, enabling a coach to
easily break
down a student athlete's skills and technique.
- A profile's document section can provide an authentic, third person acknowledgement
of a student athlete's accomplishments via the inclusion of news articles captured
directly from the Internet.
- A profile's student Bio format is structured, but also provides the flexibility
to include links to other documents (e.g., letters of recommendation, transcripts,
online web sites). You can even include a personal video clip to provide an explicit example of a student
athlete's communication skills. The Bio is attractive, informative, and easily printed.

"I am most pleased at the response that my son's web site and CD has generated.
Within one month of sending out the profile, we have heard from over 20 colleges. Numerous
coaches from the most selective colleges in the country have commented that Luke's
PressParade profile is one of the best crafted products that they have seen. The
coaches have told me that the PressParade profile provides them with all the information
on a recruit in a compact organized, yet customized, manner. Thanks"
This letter came from Michael Brocks, father of Luke Brocks, a Sewickley Academy
student who subsequently received multiple athletic scholarship offers and is
now attending the University of
Rochester.
