Virtual Nutrition Coach / Virtual Personal Trainer - remote-based - Canada (must specialize in sports nutrition - muscle gain - fat loss)

Virtual Nutrition Coach / Virtual Personal Trainer - remote-based - Canada

Pay structure:

Preset profit-sharing for each program sold (not individual sessions/not random one-off consultations, but comprehensive programs: you keep 70%, I keep 30%, the program materials / marketing = done for you in advance - you're simply delivering the existing programming and tweaking it / tailoring it to the biochemistry of each client so there is a base but customization is needed as that is what we are selling - nothing recycled).

Payment is collected in full before any work can begin - you'd be paid by e-transfer and manage your own taxes.

Contract structure:

Independent contractor (who has both a nutrition and fitness certification - it has to be both) with their own professional liability insurance coverage operating under Self-Love and Fitness, not an employee - the contract will be drafted upon selection and after an initial Zoom call to go over details.

This is not a full-time job, this should run alongside your existing practice (we don't care for non-competes, just keep your clients in separate lanes). This can be done evenings / weekends / figure out your own hours - it's mostly a program with pre-scheduled calls (not sessions for instruction or working out with the client like a gym buddy, we're teaching them strategy and how to fly solo).

Client level:

Those getting back on track / leveling up - they have an existing interest in fitness and nutrition, and already know what they're doing to a certain extent, but there are some tweaks that they need to make and they need us to figure it out with them because what they are currently doing is not giving them the right results.

Target:

Super driven individuals, who are very busy - need efficiency, although it does take work, we are cutting out the nonsense and getting straight to the macro ranges. So, no nonsensical overly restrictive meal plans that take forever to prep/shop for, only customized macros approach and tweaking it to their lifestyle - no heavy cooking requirements either - we teach efficiency (meal prep methods / how eat well while traveling, and so on).

*Major fat loss clients are accepted if we have the space, but program time is naturally lengthier given the timelines are longer.

No sessions:

Why programs and not traditional exercise or nutrition instruction sessions?

Sessions are limited to the session itself and they don't have an end-game, so that's why they're cheaper than programs. You get what you pay for.

We offer results-based programs that deliver greater long-term impact.

Program structure:

The nutrition coaching/consulting would be part of the below collection (so the online fitness training portion is taken care of, I’d like to hire someone to provide the nutrition check-ins):

Program durations:

The short durations are because we do not sell traditional weight loss, we sell muscle gain/fat loss/levelling up and this ideally should not take a full year unless it's a massive transformation (which may be a future program but not right now).

We understand this current method and niche market means constant client acquisition, but our upfront assessments skip the nonsensical gimmicks and our solutions are tailored.

Discovery calls:

The candidate must be willing to take on discovery 20 minute calls to assess client fit. This won't be a time-suck as I will give you the structure and right questions to ask, the pre-screen is done by me via email so we know who is asking about business inquiries and this allows me to screen-out those looking for free advice.

A discovery call is to determine mutual fit, the problem we solve is one that we're paid to solve once hired.

We are going high-ticket low-volume for this so the traffic flow is not the same as low-ticket pre-made generic nonsensical programs.

1. 3 months option: (price to be discussed - can be renewed)

• Initial intake call for nutrition assessment (and fitness assessment if applicable) - 45 minutes.

• Fitness programs with video instruction from our online collection (from getting back on track to warrior-mode).

• Client is encouraged obtain laboratory blood work through their medical office or a walk-in clinic (eventually or during the program) to check for nutrient deficiencies - nutrition guidance should be mindful of existing deficiencies not to necessarily cure them - but to be ultra-tailored... we will explain how this is a factor in recommending supplements throughout the program.

• Curated macronutrient ranges, calorie ranges based on goals, meal planning guidance - not prescriptive meal plans - portion control guidance if client does not want to deal with calories based on muscle gain/fat loss (based on “if it fits your macros” flexible dieting - including competitive athletes where the ranges are just tailored more leading to a sports event).

• 1 x 60 - 75 minute Zoom or phone check-in once every 2 weeks to discuss nutrition (use Calendly or any other booking system of your choice) - can discuss fitness if needed, but existing online program from goal-driven workout collection should cover most of it if their focus is on nutrition.

• There will be a program option for built-from-scratch fitness programming as well.

• E-mail access to coach in-between check-ins

• Additional calls $150 / hourly.

2. 6 months option: (price to be discussed - can be renewable)

• Initial intake call for nutrition assessment (and fitness assessment if applicable) - 45 minutes.

• Fitness programs with video instruction from our online collection (from getting back on track to warrior-mode).

• 1 x 60-75 minute Zoom or phone check-in per week to discuss nutrition (use Calendly or any other booking system of your choice) - can discuss fitness if needed, but existing online program from goal-driven workout collection should cover most of it if their focus is on nutrition.

• Additional calls $150 / hourly.

3. One-Time Game Plan Strategy Mini-Program:

• Initial intake call for nutrition assessment (and fitness assessment if applicable) - 45 minutes.

• 1 x 5 week fitness plan from our collection.

• Take-away macronutrient ranges / nutritional guidance.

4. Other categories of possible programs:

If there is a demand for major fat loss, it would operate under a spin-off brand, hyper-custom workouts/macros, 12 month minimum commitment from client, also fully virtual, lower cap on # of clients you can serve that way.

The ROI of our programs (based on client goals):

Maintain or increase your muscle mass.
Lose fat without losing muscle (body recomposition).
Achieve athletically motivated fat loss goals.
Learn flexible dieting and nutrition strategies (no cutting out entire food groups unless you want to).
Increase your overall athletic performance.
Toning and muscle definition.

Details of how we assess things:

A nutrition version of the PAR-Q questionnaire is being developed and will screen for IBS/inflammation sensitivity and so on. No point offering anyone guidance if it's not detailed and so this will combine medical history/allergies and closely resemble PAR-Q.

It can be very dangerous to provide advice that has not been screened against their existing medical conditions if any.

We do not offer meal plans as they're outside of our scope of practice, even for competitors, macronutrient ranges / meal examples are usually sufficient. Teaching people how to build their own meals is so much more valuable than just giving them a prescription of what to eat.

Meal ideas within macro ranges are totally fine though.

The right mutual fit:

Self-driven:

The contractor must be okay with working independently and using email as the primary method of contact for questions once the initial training materials have been shared / initial Zoom touch-base.

This is only a segment of the business I manage and I may not be able to have as much face-time as I would like with everyone who helps with projects - maybe a check-in with me over Zoom once a month - so I am upfront about this (I need someone who is confident to make decisions on their own within pre-existing principles and confident communicating with clients).

I rather you get a thorough response from me with mental presence - so email interim to touching base over Zoom when needed. :)

Contractor will get access to an online knowledge database on top of pre-existing program materials that cover many different situations, but still require your intuitive ability to adapt and tailor to each client.

Google is as good for non-tailored programs so this brand is based around customization/intuition/care for unique needs.

For branding reasons:

Candidate must absolutely not belong to an MLM (multi-level marketing aka scam-e-rific fakeness like Modere, skinny teas, detox pills), we do not condone the exploitation of people, forcing them to work for free under the guise of high-ROI and the amount of shady detox pills and magic potions these people peddle like it was the holy grail of fat loss. This is a hard no, but aside from this, of course you can work for yourself/other gyms/do affiliate marketing/whatever you want.

Camera presence:

Must be confident on camera (most client calls are via Zoom).

Your time is money and we respect your time off:

Parameters for access to you will be set with clients in advance, you choose your hours... Your wellbeing precedes business success.

Work ethic is about being "on" during work time, since passion doesn't forgo sleep, it's also work ethic to recharge to show up as our best for clients by shutting our brain off when "off" during personal recharge time un-interrupted.

There is a set defined amount of calls and check-ins that they get per the payment terms of the program. If they ever ask for more calls, pricing is already set for additional ones.
