Cons
Numbers , numbers, numbers You will be constantly asked "what are you doing to promote Pilates". They'll make it sound like they care about your business. However, If you aren't converting enough comps , you will be required to do "events" on the floor or stand at the front desk which entails you trying to convince a member why the should do Pilates and get them to do their complimentary session . Then you have to convince them to buy. Each month you'll have to project how many paid sessions you think you'll do. And if you hit it then they'll raise it. If your location doesn't hit , your coordinator doesn't get his/her bonus. So then they'll be constantly on your back about the team hitting. And while I'm on the subject of coordinator... Don't do it unless you like not having a work life balance. If your monthly budget is 37,000 you will only get 150.00 for hitting. That's not even 1%! You are only paid 400 and something a week. Mind you , you're a head of a department. It's definitely not worth the money. Forget good insurance unless you can teach 60 sessions every two weeks. The requirement used to be 25 per paycheck but they switched it to 30 per week ! The other insurance is horrible. Now lets talk about bonus structure. If you refer someone and they get hired you get 250.00 after 6 mos. However, the personal trainers get 250.00 when they start and another 250.00! They also get a bonus for retaining clients that Pilates instructors do not get.
