I hope that everyone is having great weekend and all is well.
Remember last week when I mentioned to you that it was my birthday? That’s always a great time of anyone’s year to receive a few gifts, cake and ice cream, and in this day and age of social media…. Birthday wishes from all around the world. And of course, all of those things happened to me as well!
But you know what? … every time I receive some nice things, it always puts me into the mind set of giving back.
So, I just happened to finish up my new ebook, “Basketball A-Z: What It Takes to Make it from AAU to the Pros”, and I’d like to make it available to each and every one of you (over the next 10 days) … just because!
The best way to receive your own Basketball A-Z ebook download link, is to click here and submit your name and email address. I’ll be notified right away and will personally send you an email with the download link information. And yes, it’ll be personally from me to you! How does that all sound to you?
I don’t normally write much about basketball, but I thought that I’d put this ebook together for all of the young basketball players and basketball coaches out there. So, even if you’re not a big basketball fan, I’m sure that you have people in your lives who are. Daughter or son, husband or wife, family member or friends!
The ebook has a lot of information in it about basketball drills and preparation that will defiantly help anyone to be better and better at basketball. From youth basketball, high school, college and all the way to the Pros, you’ll find it here!
It also has some great insight that I share as to how and why I got started in basketball, and how, once I started to dedicate myself to this great game, how it all started coming together for me, and I was actually able to make a career out of it.
I know that you’ll enjoy it!
What do you have to lose!!! It doesn’t cost you a thing (except a name and email submission). Which will also give you a free ”look see” at the great business entrepreneurial opportunities that I’ve been involved in for a while and have been sharing with you for a few weeks now. As I mentioned, once you get started, I’ll be right here for you as well, coaching, mentoring, sharing and encouraging you every step of the way.
Enjoy!
My birthday was a nice little time for me to receive and get birthday greetings from all around the world, but now it’s “your time”!
Take care and have a wonderful weekend! Looking forward to working closely with you soon.
