Overview

At Centenary College, Head Gymnastics Coach Meg Crowley set out to solve one of the biggest challenges in college recruiting: staying consistent and personal with every prospect. The system she implemented worked well, but keeping up with hundreds of recruits by email and text required hours of manual documenting in spreadsheets. By adopting WinWon Recruiting, Crowley built a structured, repeatable communication system that still feels personal to every athlete. Through templates, batch messaging, the Outbox, and the interactive Depth Chart, she streamlined outreach, gained visibility into recruit engagement, and reclaimed valuable time every week.

Challenge: Managing Consistency in Recruiting Communication

Before WinWon, Crowley relied on spreadsheets, notes, and manual copy-and-paste workflows to communicate with recruits. Each message had to be sent one at a time, leaving little room for strategy or personalization.

“I follow a system built around consistent communication,” she said. “But before WinWon, it took too long to execute it. I’d spend an hour sending emails that now take 20 minutes.”

Like many coaches in today’s recruiting landscape, she needed a way to communicate frequently and efficiently, without losing the authenticity that makes recruiting relationships meaningful.

Solution: Templates, Personalization, and Visibility

With WinWon, Crowley was able to turn her recruiting philosophy into an efficient, repeatable process.

🧩 Template Builder & Batch Messaging
Before WinWon, Crowley was retyping the same outreach over and over again — introducing herself, sharing schedule links, and reminding recruits about next steps. With WinWon’s Template Builder and Batch Messaging, she can now create polished, reusable email and text templates that still feel personal. Each message automatically fills in the name of each recipient, so no recruit feels like just another number.By standardizing her outreach while preserving tone and warmth, Crowley ensures that every athlete hears a consistent story about Centenary Gymnastics. The time she used to spend drafting individual messages is now spent having real conversations — giving her more time to build relationships, follow up on interest, and convert top recruits faster.

💬 Mass Messages From Her Own Number and Email 

Crowley uses WinWon’s dual-channel communication tools to balance structure and personalization across email and text. Batch emails help her stay organized and consistent, while text templates allow her to deliver timely follow-ups and add a human touch after every call or conversation. Because each text pulls up one recruit at a time, she can quickly personalize messages with small details—something that keeps her outreach feeling genuine instead of automated. This approach helps her maintain real connection while managing a growing list of recruits, ensuring no conversation ever feels like a copy-paste interaction.


📊 Outbox for Engagement Tracking

The WinWon Outbox gives Crowley visibility into every email she sends—who opened it, who clicked through, and who hasn’t seen it yet. With this real-time feedback, she can focus her follow-ups where they’ll have the most impact and adjust her communication strategy based on actual engagement. Instead of guessing who’s interested, she now knows which athletes are paying attention and can prioritize accordingly. That visibility helps her make smarter decisions about how to spend her time, making her outreach both efficient and effective.“The Outbox helps me see who’s opening and engaging with my emails, so I know exactly where to spend my time. It keeps me efficient and focused.”

📈 Depth Chart for Recruiting Organization

Crowley relies on WinWon’s Recruiting Depth Chart to visualize her entire recruiting landscape. She can quickly sort prospects by event strengths, class year, or priority, and move them between categories as conversations progress. It’s a clear, visual way to stay on top of every athlete in the pipeline without needing multiple spreadsheets or notes. That organization gives her clarity at a glance, helping her focus recruiting energy where it matters most—and giving her the confidence that no opportunity slips through the cracks.
“It keeps my list clean and helps me see who I’m targeting. It’s simple to move athletes around as my needs change.”
“I thought about what really sells Centenary—our mission, academics, and what a small school experience is actually like. The templates make it easy to share our story consistently, without losing personalization in each recruiting process.”
