Foyle-Consulting-Athlete-Coaching-Future-Planning-Services

Foyle Consulting empowers semi-pro and pro athletes to be engaged with the running of their lives beyond the playing field. Adonal Foyle has incorporated the methods and tools he used to successfully manage his life while in the NBA to consult and coach current athletes on creating a well-rounded and customized plan tailored to address their individual life needs and goals. The plan includes looking at the following areas:

Financial Audit and Consulting.

After running an audit of the client’s current financial condition Foyle Consulting will collaborate on creating a plan that includes:

    • Budgeting. One way to not run out of money is to keep track of the money you have. Foyle Consulting works with clients to create a budget that ensures they can meet their financial goals.
    • Identifying Key Financial Service Providers. Athletes have certain financial needs and nuances that are different from the average person. Foyle Consulting has a roster of financial service providers that are pre-vetted and trusted in the matters of athletes so as to make sure clients has the most qualified financial team on their side.
    • Identifying Tax Liabilities. It is important that athletes understand the unique tax categories in which they fall. Foyle Consulting helps our clients find an accredited tax accountant, who will be vitally important in ensuring that the athlete is in compliance with tax laws.
    • Preparing for retirement. Athletes often get caught up in the glitz and glamour of being “famous” and forget to plan for the day they hang their jerseys and the paychecks stop coming, but the expenses don’t stop. Foyle Consulting addresses the financial realities of retirement and work with clients to come up with a plan to ensure they are prepared- no matter when that day comes.
Life Skills and Business Guidance.

As a semi-pro or pro athlete, your life should be run like a business. Foyle Consulting guides clients with advice and structure in areas of their life that are just as important as their attention to the game. These areas are:

    • Defining the “Athlete Matrix”. It is important for athletes to understand how to determine and direct the people they work and hang out with. Foyle Consulting works with clients to articulate their vision and plan for the future, so as to build a better picture of who to have on their personal team and how to effectively manage them.
    • Personal Branding. Help athletes to take ownership of their personal brand by making sure they are representing themselves with a purpose in the media and on social media. Clients will get media training as well as guidance in how to manage their social media so it is properly representing the athlete.
    • Life Skills. Coach athletes in effectively managing their relationship with their families and entourages to ensure effective life-balance.
    • Business Development. Many athletes want to create business structures such as LLC, 501(c)3 charities and S-corps in order to protect themselves and their business ventures. Foyle Consulting guides clients in determining which business entity is appropriate for their specific goals.
