Olympic Weightlifter Super Scholarship
By clicking the PayPal link below, you are agreeing to the following terms
It is very rare that I offer this low of a price, but I understand that sometimes your passion for weightlifting far outstrips your bank account! I get that, and I have tried to find a way to make sure I can still pay the bills and keep the doors open here at PDX, and yet never have to turn away a dedicated weightlifter!
Thus, you’re only gonna pay $50/month.
However, this IS a scholarship, and like all scholarships, there are stipulations that help make this a win-win on both sides. Here they are:
1. Keep silent! Most everyone else in the gym is paying 3 or even 4 times what you are. As far as they are concerned, you pay the full price. Even my normal price for competitive Oly lifters who sign a contract to compete for 12 months is STILL double what you are paying.
2. You make a commitment to compete as a member of our team in a minimum of 3 contests a year while you are on Scholarship. Of course, you’ll have to sign up with USA Weightlifting, put PDX Weightlifting down as your team, Nick Horton as your coach, and buy a singlet … oh, singlets!
3. You make a serious effort to become the best weightlifter you can be in your age/gender/weight class. This means you show up to practice, lift hard, and do it all with a happy smile. The better you get, the better you make the club/gym look. It is in all of our best interests for you to reach your potential.
4. You allow me to take Photo and Video of you in training and competition to help promote the gym further. Now, I do this with nearly everyone in the gym anyway, but I always give them the option to tell me not to use it. For you, it is mandatory. You’re here in part to make the club look good and help me get more full-price clients so that you can keep your discount. Marketing with video is shockingly effective … I’m sure you watched a bunch of our vids before coming in to see me!
5. Along those same lines, it behooves you to refer more clients to me. Even though you are at a reduced rate, the same referral program applies to you: Sign up one client for my trial period, and you get 50% of your next month dues back in cash; sign up 2 people that month and your next month is free; Sign up 3 or more in one month, you get a free month PLUS I’ll pay you $20 bucks per person after 2. If you are enterprising, you can train with me for free nearly all the time, and make some extra Mocha money … I’d spend it on mochas! All it takes is getting two people to join my trial every month.
My own goal is to grow PDX Weightlifting to the point of being able to help more and more people just like you who really want to do weightlifting, but need some help. You can help me do this by simply being your awesome self, becoming a good weightlifter, talking up your experiences with us to anyone who will listen, dragging everyone you know into the gym, helping me out when I run promo’s, etc.
Welcome to the team,
Nick
