Stop collecting club fees in Facebook DMs

Tryout week hits. Parents ask the same questions in Messenger: how much, when, where to pay, what do we bring. You copy the answer again. Someone Venmos the wrong amount. Someone else never gets the form. By Sunday night your phone is a payment office.

That works when you have twelve kids. It breaks when you have a real season.

Parents want a page, not a thread

Families comparing clubs look for one place that answers:

• What the program is and who it is for
• Dates, ages, and locations
• Fees and what is included
• A clear next step — register or request a spot

If that lives only in a Facebook post or a DM, many parents stall. They do not want to join a chat just to pay.

Keep Facebook. Give them a storefront.

Keep posting schedules and wins. Keep answering questions. Still point every “how do I sign up?” to a site you control — not an algorithm feed.

A CCCM booking site sits under your club or academy name (or a domain we register for you). Registration and deposit links go to your accounts — Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, Square, or your card processor. We never hold tuition or job money.

What “Design your site” means

CCCM builds and runs a live booking website for clubs, sports academies, and local service businesses:

• Live in 2 business days after paid checkout and complete details
• $149 first month, then $99/month, three-month minimum
• We build it and run it — you are not wrestling templates at night
• Buyout available ($1,500) if you want to own the site later
• 60-day lock on the offer terms

Public working site for the club or school presence. Academy OS (attendance, clearance, testing) is a separate talk when you are ready — this post is about the public page parents actually use. Talk first, no online checkout for that lane.
