A tournament where students can enter for free, and they receive a coach to help them along their run. So students play against students, each with a coach, and perhaps offer a prize to both for winning, maybe giving them a handful of free sessions together.

If we want our students to improve,we need to improve our content first,i've had so many students type in chat what items they should build and when.Lol is gonna make this change next season,but why dont we make it now?Put coaches who are great with certain champion on duty of updating build paths,leveling up abilities etc.That way coaches have more things to do and we have content up to date,students learn something by looking at content.

If we want more coaching booked we can make so that when student rates coach as 5 star and writes a review (meaning he rly likes coach) we can automaticly set that student follows that coach and can see when he is next time online for more booking

Duo package,over time i had a lot of students wanting to have session with their duo partne (supp,adc combo) it would be cool if we can sell that as package,it would be something new,students would buy it because most of them have duos,and it will increase their improvement rapidly while coaches make more money

Vod reviews,5-10 minutes call or ability to chat with your coach and ask few follow up questions about the video.Also send another vod review to coach button is needed.

Platform on proguides that allows us coaches to stream games,while having student randomly join for some small fee (1-3 $ or something),that way we can make money while playing and students can see live decisions as we make them and explain them,since the amount they pay is small,coaches wont be expected to do great deal of work,other than answering questions and generaly playing the game

I'd suggest a re-brand for the InstaPro model and/or the creation of a new system just for Coaches, not pros.

The "InstaPro" model gives off the impression of Pro Guides offering a rent-a-pro system instead of hiring a coach to instruct you how to be better in a game.

This leads to situations like what happened when Ops booked a Pro Guides coach. His 10k+ viewers had the impression that Ops was buying a "pro" to 1v1. While the coach wasn't bad at the game, he was no pro. Because he was a coach.

This can give off a bad vibe to ProGuides when players think its a pro they're booking but in reality, it's a coach more like BallawTW then say, Clix.

Changing text from "Pros" to "Coach/Pro Coaches" is a good step to start with.

However, the addition of a new system just for coaches or the change of the pro system to a coaching system will certainly help manage expectations and bring in more players who want pure coaching.

Reverse session
It's gonna be a LoL example but it might work for other games too.
The student can pick a coach to play a game on certain champion/role of his choice. The student is gonna spectate our live gameplay and he will be allowed to ask any questions the whole to fully understand our thought process. Why do we do this instead of doing something else, why did we recall, why did we path there etc. The coach can also proactively keep explaining his ideas and reasoning behind his actions. It would work just as videos of proses talking about their gameplay during the game but it's live so student will be able to ask anytime if he misses something. It could be really entertaining for students to see us struggle with classic "high elo" soloq problems on their favourite champions.

Tournament/Event Preparation:

A new coaching session across games (2 hours minimum?) set across all games (The student will purchase but you can allow the student's whole team join the session for free). The emphasis is on the coach to impart with strong strategic implementations for the students. Basically just tournament prep, explaining different situations that can come up and how to deal with it. The coach will sit down with the student(s) and develop several game plans and predictive drafts/compositions.

# data[].attributes.body
Session:
*Have a Coach Review My Routine/ Make Me A Routine*

This would be a session where a student would walk a coach through their daily routine. Going over warmup, aim training, and time spent in game. The coach could then recommend more time effective ways of getting better and create a schedule for the student based on how much time they have. Many students waste time staying in creative (fortnite) or playing pubs when they could be be learning fighting techniques in arena. This just one example however, lots of students need structure to improve quickly which is the ultimate goal of *Proguides*. This would also be the best starter session for a new student. Meaning if they see progress they will come back for more tips and tricks.

# data[].attributes.body
Before a Student buys a session, they could fill out a form on what exactly they want help with, this will therefore allow the coach to have more time to actually help the student instead of having to find out in the session, when you find out before the session even starts it would be a lot easier for both sides. If the student does not know what to work on there could be a tick box which shows the coach if they click they do not know what to work on and would to like the coach decide

# data[].attributes.body
"Purchase a Looting Path" Just like the VOD system, students could purchase in game looting paths. The coach that accepts the request can use lootlake.io to construct an annotated loot path based on the students wants/needs.

"In-Tournament coaching session"
a new session type where students can book a coach to coach them through out an in game event. The coach will join a discord call with the student, give suggestions, make callouts, and discuss strategies.

# data[].attributes.body
from my engineering background I've learned that Time is something of value and my suggestion is trying to maximize the experience and time spent with any student. I think that when students sign up for a session on their dashboard they should already set the role they want to be coached on and their elo and also include their experience in the game. This suggestion saves a lot of time in my opinion where the coach can read the background of the student asking for coaching and know exactly what the student wants and help them gain the most out of their sessions instead of spending a portion of it gathering information. This type of information can pop up when coaches get the alert of a new session.

my 2nd suggestion maybe have been mentioned before but it would be nice to see a Proguides Coaching team competing in future events to represent the company and how great it is, to attract future students who will know that the players they are watching can be their coach if they choose so. The Proguides team can be for any game and not just for a specific one.

# data[].attributes.body
Implement a calendary or some option to set a time for a future session so the student and the coach can schedule a session with date and hour. Also set an alarm 5 minutes before to get ready.

# data[].attributes.body
I know this was an option before but I would love to suggest for us to bring “elite/pro” coaches back. That coach can receive this title if they meet the requirements (Ex. 125 reviews, 75 5 star reviews etc.). If they meet the requirements they can receive the title and also given the privilege of being able to raise their prices more. (If receiving frequent sessions and not AFK farming)

# data[].attributes.body
Make a section in the coaching dashboard to where if coaches wished to region lock themselves so they only receive sessions from students in their region, and/or making a section in the coaching dashboard where it shows what languages the coach speaks so that the student can pick the right coach for them so there isn’t a language barrier.

# data[].attributes.body
Create ProGuides teams/lineups, that will represent ProGuides in Different online/lan events.

Tech bootcamp: A coach (or several) will guide a student (or several), through some key techniques and set up a training regime to learn them.

Far too often I run into students that lack knowledge of basic techniques, and a good chunk of the lesson is spent going over these concepts.

The majority of the time, the student knows of the technique, knows it's important for them to learn, but doesn't understand how to begin the learning process.

I'm sure this happens across many genres too! Smash: RAR's, attack cancels, OOS, B-reverses, wavelands

League: Orb walking, flash cancelling abilities (gragas E)

Shooters: Crosshair placement, jiggle peeking, Fortnite quickbuilds, Overwatch has LOTS of character specific techs, proper strafe control, etc

# data[].attributes.body
The coach will be able to link a student with another student and help them duo( for instance i have a support student and a adc student on the same elo/server)if the students also want it and then provide a duoq price which is like 10% lower and involves both students !

Coaches will talk and find small esports team or academies and groom their students to go to the academies or coaches can talk to the academy teams and reccommend or even create teams with the students

I dont know if this counts, but keep an eye on rivals of aether and spellbreak. Those games are gonna be huge

Lol coaching related -
Play 1 spectated game  + replay analysis package (60-75min session together)
Its good to show students after game what they did wrong in the game (I record the screenshare but can be done through downloading replay)
Personally I do that if they buy the spectated game but sometimes it can go way over the time and would be nice if they could buy the package together :)

# data[].attributes.body
Have a session option as Coach's recommendation, a lot of students don't know what session to buy and this would make it easier for them and make the session content more flexible for the coach as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Reserve Future Sessions: I've had more then 85% of my students reach out to me and try to RSVP me for a certain time. I think if they were to reserve the coach (after accepting the request) it would give coaches more money ONTOP of being more flexible for the students. So that they don't have to compete with sending a request to a popular coach etc.

# data[].attributes.body
This would be an option next to the regular scrolling through online coaches. Click on find a coach to find a coach specifically for what you're looking for (FE for fortnite: I want to improve my movement, aim, building, editing, decision making, early game, midgame, late game.) This was already kind of attempted by giving coaches specialties, but these could be expanded and implemented within a search system to find a coach who can help with what you need specifically

Monthly/weekly/long term coaching pass for a specific coach, you get the coaches as a sort of personal coach to message if you have any questions and a set amount of sessions each month or week with the certain coach.  If not a single coach maybe a selection of a few coaches - coaches could set prices based on a weekly or monthly basis and it could maybe provide a discount or an increase in price for students based on how ProGuides deems it useful.

Also maybe a checklist that people can fill out before a session about what they want to learn about ex. doing 90s and then if they have been taught they can either choose to just check a box to say yes or write a brief description of how their experience was.

# data[].attributes.body
Quizes, which will test the student knowledge on curtain macro decisions/ teamfight positioning etc.
Coach can create a quizz on their profile to either buy or to promote coaches, Quiz will contain VODs sent from other students (without nicknames, nor chat) and there will be A B C D answers or open question for more complicated questions and no 1-dimensional,

Something I struggled with myself is explaining a few things that have to do with inputs specifically to students. Recently I have decided to make a bunch of gifs to send to my students when I am talking about things like this. It is a good way to show a student something quickly and while they see the visual GIF I can still explain it. The most important thing to these gifs show the inputs though, since a lot of the time that is hard to explain. When you can show a student quickly how to do something visually with inputs it makes it 100 times easier for the student to understand

This can also be applied to a few other things like how certain things in the game interact with one another.

Watch a Pro: A session type that allows the customer to watch the pro play a game and explain and go through everything they do and choices they make. This will allow the student to get a first hand look at Pro Level play and also get the benefits of having the gameplay explained to them in real time. (something that isn't always available when watching their favorite pro streamer)

# data[].attributes.body
Team Coaching: Such as scrim reviews for example in League of Legends, id say the price should be the same as 3 regular Replay Analysis sessions varrying from coach to coach

# data[].attributes.body
Long Term Coaching: A lot of competitve coaches tend to only imrpove in time through "Mastery" coaching which takes time to improve by focusing on certain weaknesse's. This will bring in a lot of other competitive players, at the moment casuals are the majority.

# data[].attributes.body
Team Coaching: Allow groups of 2 to 4 people to book a coach together and get coaching as a group. This would be great for team modes like Duos, Trios, Squads, and even groups of 5 in Valorant.

Monthly Package: A long-term commitment with a coach, where student and coach would book (in advance) consistent sessions over a one-month time period.

(Stored) Technique Clips: For coaches to record in advance and embed in a report card for students to see (if they're teaching the student that specific technique)

Competitive Session: Allow the student to play a competitive match (like Arena in FN) with the coach and potentially gain some points easily

# data[].attributes.body
Discount Code: A code that coaches can give out so they can give discounts, of course this is on the coaches and they chose, this will be very useful for streamers and creators.

Weekly/Monthly coaching from a specific coach for a lower price than normal coaching. This will work as a way to make the customers more into it, like a gym card for example or sports training. If they have weekly coaching they will look forward to this and we can set weekly goals easier etc..

Mentorship Program:
A long-term subscription (set lengths such as 1 month, 3 months, etc) where a player will partner up with a qualified coach of their choosing and schedule regular meetings, evaluations and lessons. This will not only allow more opportunities for players to improve, but also allow them to establish a stronger relationship between themselves and the coach. This gives them a more favorable impression of not only the coach themselves, but also ProGuides as a brand.

1)
This is the big one for me.
KNOWLEDGE SESSIONS/ VERBAL COACHING SESSIONS.
I always do this on the first session i have with somebody. explaining everything around the different roles + fundamental and making a plan around it that fits the student the best.
In my opinion an in-game spectating and Vod review are pretty limited bc of the things you can say in the limited amount of time. i rather not focus on 1 game and just tell them what they have to do/what they did wrong that game bc it's in some cases not open enough but to specific. The knowledge session will go over every fundamental there is in the game + go over what fundamental they have to focus on at this point in time and why not the others. i personally do this with examples of high elo gameplay for pro play.

2)
A standard long term coaching option:
I have done this for quiet a while now with my students. i offer them long term coaching + acc. long term coaching for those who have the time.
I have been doing this for over 2 months now.

3)
Make it possible for coaches to do something along the lines of community Op.gg reviews, maybe on the proguides discord itself bc that's where the bigger audience is.

4)
Let there be an option so that the coaches know what sessions the student takes so if needed the coach can send all the things he did with that student already to the coach that is currently with the student.
Also make it so that Coaches have to make a document of all of their long term students if the students wants this.

5)
Team coaching :
I do this personally already with some of my students but make it a visible option for the students on the platform so it's easier for them to access

Scheduled Coaching: Only certain coaches will get this, some measures can be put so coaches dont miss sessions. Some review number minimums or 3 strikes and you dont have access to the feature.
