  • Build outreach lists and initiate first-touch communication to set up meetings for the Marketing Manager and Club Managers
  • Track lead sources, outreach status, and follow-up needs in shared systems — own the pipeline and keep it moving
  • Develop and sustain authentic relationships with TITLE Ambassadors and influential community partners who can drive new member acquisition
  • Execute TITLE's product seeding strategy through Ambassadors and community partners
  • Follow up with leads and prospects with urgency — your job isn't done until they're booked into a class
  • Make retention personal: conduct membership retention calls and individual outreach to keep members engaged and coming back
  • Plan and coordinate lead-generating events and community activations — pop-ups, tabling, and neighborhood events designed to bring new faces into the club
  • Support member appreciation and re-engagement events that reduce attrition and strengthen loyalty
  • Research and secure local sponsors and partners to support events, freeing up managers to focus on daily operations
  • Prepare marketing materials, signage, and event kits that represent the brand at its best

  • Support email campaigns, local marketing calendars, and campaign execution
  • Maintain organized outreach trackers, lead lists, and partnership logs
  • Deliver weekly summaries of lead-gen progress, event pipeline, and community partnership conversations

Qualifications

  • You are genuinely outgoing — you don't just tolerate meeting new people, you thrive on it, and you're energized by turning a cold conversation into a real connection
  • Passionate about lead generation and community building in equal measure — you want to grow something, not just maintain it
  • Strong communicator in person, on the phone, and in writing — comfortable initiating outreach and following up with confidence
  • Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple relationships, leads, and projects simultaneously without dropping the ball
  • Evenings and weekends are a core part of this role, not an exception — that's when our community is most alive and you need to be there
  • Passionate about fitness, wellness, or community-based experiences — you don't have to be a boxer, but you have to believe in what we're building
  • Curious and excited about AI and new technology tools — you'll use them daily to research, create, and outreach smarter
  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, Sports Management, or a related field preferred
