WHO WE AREStrive2
Move is a sports rehab practice helping athletes and active adults get out of pain and back to doing what they love.
We work with runners, golfers, Cross Fitters, lifters, and everyday athletes who don’t want to be told to stop doing the things they love.
We’re looking for someone who wants hands-on experience in social media, relationship-building, sports marketing, community events, and lead generation.
WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO📱
Build Relationships Through Instagram
A big part of this role is simple:
Talk to people. Build relationships. Help them.
You’ll:
• Start genuine conversations with athletes and active people on Instagram
• Respond to people who engage with our content
• Follow up with new followers and leads
• Build relationships instead of immediately trying to sell someone
• Ask questions and actually listen to what people tell you
• Learn how to identify when someone may be a good fit for Strive2
Move
• Help move the right people toward booking a call with our team
• Keep conversations organized so nobody gets forgotten
We have proven scripts and systems for how we communicate with leads.
Your job isn’t to reinvent them.
We’ll teach you exactly what to say, why we say it, and how to make it sound natural while staying within the process.
🏃 SPORTS + COMMUNITY EVENTSThis isn’t an internship where you’ll sit behind a laptop the entire time.
You’ll also have opportunities to help us at:
• Local races
• Cross Fit and gym events
• Golf events
• Workshops
• Community fitness events
You’ll meet athletes, help run our booth, create content, start conversations, collect leads, and help us build relationships with the local fitness community.
📈 MARKETING + LEAD GENERATIONYou’ll learn how social media actually turns into business.
That includes:
• Following up with leads consistently
• Starting and maintaining conversations
• Using our scripts and conversation frameworks
• Updating lead information and tracking conversations
• Helping manage our CRM and marketing spreadsheets
• Learning how to move someone from follower → conversation → potential client
• Tracking the conversations and activities that lead to booked calls
Communication is a huge part of this role.
Because part of the position is remote, we need someone who communicates extremely well with the team.
You’ll be expected to:
•
Check in at the beginning of every shift with your priorities for the day
• Check out at the end of every shift with what was completed, what is still open, and anything the team needs to know
• Communicate consistently through Slack during your working hours
• Ask questions when you’re unsure instead of guessing
• Flag important leads or conversations quickly
• Keep your tasks, conversations, and follow-ups organized
• Be responsive to coaching and feedback
We don’t expect you to know everything.
We do expect you to communicate.

✔️ You can follow a script without sounding like a robot
✔️ You’re reliable and do what you say you’re going to do
