[Fredslist] Sales Person Wanted - Fitness Business

[Steven Skyles-Mulligan]

Can we stir up some Gotham magic for a friend and sometime client of mine?

Marketing/Sales for new outdoor specialty sport played in kayaks


Ground floor opportunity at New York Kayak Company for a highly motivated individual to spearhead sales and marketing for a thrilling original on-water game that was invented to fill an unmet demand from groups interested in waterborne adventures for team building, entertainment, parties, and just plain old fun. The game, a trademarked patent pending intellectual property 20 years in it's making, will roll out in two phases: 1) local sales to groups, 2) franchise and licensing sales. This is an opportunity to play a major role in developing a new global brand. Candidates should possess strong sales, marketing, and social media backgrounds. Any experience with Equinox, Swerve Fit, CrossFit Training, Tough Mudder, or Spartan Race is viewed with favor, as is experience in a start-up where you contributed as a member of a small team.

The successful candidate will respond by email with a resume and cover letter that articulates your interest in the opportunity and takes a first pass at outlining your strategy for phase 1.  Email to randall at nykayak.com<mailto:randall at nykayak.com> and please mention my name.
