Camp Gladiator is one of the fastest growing fitness companies in Texas and is officially the largest adult fitness boot camp in Dallas and Austin. We are now also in Louisiana, Oklahoma, California, Illinois and Florida, growing bigger every month. As the lead recruiter for this project, I would like to take some time to meet with anyone interested, get to know you on a more personal and business level as well as present a business opportunity with Camp Gladiator.

In the past 2 years, I have helped Camp Gladiator grow from 100 campers to over 2000, and from 10 locations to over 200, as well as acquiring lucrative ownership potential. We are searching for business minded fitness experts in expanding cities to do the same.

Not only is this the perfect time for a fitness professional to get involved, but a lucrative time as well. Our goal is to be the largest outdoor fitness provider in the world, and the only way we're going to get there is by recruiting the best, most entrepreneurial trainers that want to help take the CG movement nationwide. If you are interested, my business associates and I are coming to Denver the week of February 6th. I'd like to speak with you over the phone and meet you in person when I make the trip up from Dallas. Let me know if you are interested in meeting and I will send you the details. We are planning on meeting with several trainers as a group when we come and would love to have you join us.

If you are not familiar with Camp Gladiator, I urge you to please take a look at our website at www.campgladiator.com.
