Resume

Dear Prospective Fitness Trainer,

First of all, thanks for taking the time to visit this site.

It’s my hope that you have precisely what I need in a fitness trainer so I can take this page down immediately and put you to work in the fun and rewarding coaching position I have available.

You should have arrived here because you saw my employment ad in the local paper that reads like this:

Personal Trainer/Fitness Coach Part Time, Pay DOE, 15 -20 hours per week,

flexible.

So let me tell you about me, my company and the coaching position.

My name is Chris Hill and I run a fitness and nutrition coaching

company called Personally Fit in Longview, TX.

My business is dedicated to helping women and men achieve their

health and fitness goals through customized nutrition and fitness

programs.

And business is booming!

I'm looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, and energetic person to

start training some of our current clients.

My studio is located on 1201 Loop 281 Union Plaza Ste 400 in Longview.

I currently offer one-on-one customized nutrition and fitness

programs, group coaching classes and nutrition counseling which

educate, motivate, and support men, women, and teens to improve

their health and fitness. All clients begin with an initial Fitness Evaluation

which leads to: nutrition counseling, exercise program design, nutritional

supplements, monthly fitness assessments and possible weekly training

sessions here at the studio.

If you are hired for this coaching position, you'll begin coaching clients

in the studio 3 - 4 days a week for 4 - 5 hours per day (a.m. hours or pm

in the studio 3 4 days a week for 4 5 hours per day (a.m. hours or pm

hours are available).

Bottom line: you’ll get at least 15 hours of training clients per week.

You will be paid as a Personally Fit employee, and have

the opportunity to move up to full time after a 90 -day trial period.

My studio offers a casual, fun environment, nice training equipment

and the opportunity to learn the inner-workings of a successful

personal training studio.

Oh yeah, I’m also very fair, respectful and appreciative. I like having

fun and making money providing highly valuable fitness services and

products. You will be compensated fairly, treated fairly and I will

certainly look for ways to pay you more for your efforts if they warrant

it. I want someone who enjoys working with people and making a

difference in the lives of others… because that’s what we do in my studio.
