🗨️ Swimpros AI Coach? (please VOTE)
Hey parents quick question: if I was to build out a Swimpros AI Coach that's pre-loaded with all the Swimpros tips & tricks that we've learned in the last 7 years... Specially for swim parents... With everything that we know works, and what doesn't work and why... And you could access it in the most important moments. For example: "My kid got a DQ and is devastated" "She swam a lifetime worst and won't talk to me" "He's crying and says he wants to quit swimming" "She missed qualifying by less than a second" "What do I have to pack for food?" 👉 Would that be useful for you?? Please vote right now. I'm very motivated to create it for you but I need to know you would actually use it otherwise I'm wasting my time. So as always, pls give the honest answer 😊

I actually used Claude to build a version of this to prepare Liam for the Portuguese Nationals meet a few weeks back. Used the insights from you guys to give him an hourly play-by-play for the weekend linked to his specific races. Attaching a sample of the output. Happy to share how I came up with it.

Biggest question - How do i maximize my contribution to his swim journey, finding the right places to support (push?) while ensuring the fire and desire is coming from him - not a projection from me.

NEW 🔥 5-Day Challenge Starts Tonight [Session 1 Pinned Post]
Not gonna lie.. I might be slightly nervous about tonight because 113 parents have said "YES! I want to know how I can best support my child without adding any pressure." This is the biggest and I believe it'll be the most impactful challenge we've EVER run. And I say this because I'll be teaching new stuff that I've never publicly taught. At least not to parents. And also, we just have 5x30mins so there will be NO FLUFF. Only value, tools, and 1 action step per day. So please show up on time so you don't miss important information. Each day builds on the previous. You can find all session details in the Swimpros Calendar. See ya later! David PS: If you're just catching up and would like to join the challenge, you can sign up for a symbolic $1 here and you get instant access to the challenge (+ all replays).

Hi I'm Rex, the father of Liam (14-years old). We are US and UK citizens, but live in Portugal and Liam swims with a local team called AC Sintra. His schedule includes 7 swim and 3 dryland sessions per week. His best race is 200m Breast SCM with a time of 2:40. Current goal is to make Portuguese Nationals times for July.
Parents, would you share these??
Be HONEST with me!! I'd like to spread the word about the upcoming NEW🔥 5-Day Challenge (5x 30mins) for parents ONLY. We'll dive deep into how you can best support your child without adding pressure. And I'm gonna share a lot of stuff that I'm super excited about. It'll be very different from the last 5-Day Challenge we ran directly from swim camp. It's still work in progress but would you share pics like below with your network? maybe send a friend (who's also a swim parent) a picture over Whatsapp? or share it on IG/FB? Yes/No? -> if Yes, why? -> if No, why not? (honestly please. I'm aware it might sting a bit to hear and it might be uncomfortable to say but believe me, I'm not taking it personally and I really WANT to know because I can improve on it. Thank you 🤝

As of right now the pictures don’t “stand alone” - meaning I can’t just share and it will take parents to a spot where they can answer all the 5Ws. If these were paired with a landing page that clearly helped the interested parent understand what they were signing up for and How to do it, then I’d share. But if I share right now as they are I end up having to answer a bunch of logistics questions and it’s a guarantee they will give up on the process or I will get annoyed.
