Client Profile
Industry
Education Consulting / Scholarship Advisory
(Sports).
Size
Solo-led consulting business with recurring
digital product sales.
Business Model
Scholarship consulting for high-
school athletes and parents, monetized through quizzes,
subscriptions, digital products (NCAA coach lists), and
strategy calls.
Kalvin D. Cline helps student-athletes and parents
navigate college scholarship opportunities through
advisory services and digital resources.
Business Problem
Kalvin’s operations were constrained by multiple manual and fragmented
processes:
→Leads coming from quizzes, Facebook, and referrals were tracked
manually
→ Follow-ups were inconsistent and time-consuming
→ NCAA coach contact lists required manual delivery and monthly
updates
→ Checkout flows suffered from abandoned carts and subscription failures
→ Significant time spent on admin instead of coaching and strategy
The lack of automation limited growth, conversions, and client experience.
