ClassHopr - Chief Technology Officer

Don't let education or experience fool you. I Have been a lifelong entrepreneur and this is my story.

- We all know the importance of fitness & diet in order to live a healthy life but we are just too lazy to make a move. Enthusiastic users take annual membership but fail to attend it regularly due to boredom or decreasing motivational factors. Also, many are not aware about the type of activities happening in and around their area. You need to be a member with each studio in order to access different fitness & sports form and no studio provides you with everything as they have space constraint.

- So, I came up with ClassHopr - One Pass, Infinite Possibilities, which solves the very issue that exists in the current market. Fitness & Wellness is INR 30 Billion industry and growing at a CAGR 23%. Yet, studios and service providers find it difficult to convert users into members and the retention rate is - 50%.

- Only 5% of urban India is into fitness memberships and studios aren't utilizing their capacity to the fullest. Long term contract, no motivation levels, boredom are few reasons why renewal rates are so low. Also, users are looking for variety, ability to choose their move and value for money deals. ClassHopr is the perfect mix in this industry to give users what they are looking for and help industry to grow and drive more users towards these studios.

- ClassHopr is one unique subscription pass with infinite possibilities. User can now discover various classes around his locality, book it on the go and choose his move whenever he wants, wherever he wants at no EXTRA cost. ClassHopr dreams to find a sweet spot between three things:

- Increase footfalls and capacity utilization for studio. Incremental Revenue on per user/ per slot basis.

- Provide stability and low administrative hassles for trainer. Increase Visibility.

- Provide variety and value for money for consumers. Plethora of options ranging from fitness, sports, martial arts, photography, painting, cooking to target users of different interest backgrounds.

- Create WOW factor by introducing various workshops/bootcamps like Photography, Cooking, Painting, Dancing, etc for ClassHopr members and also make it a reward-based platform.

- Currently a team of 6, we started the development process towards the end of 2015 and are ready to launch our services in Mumbai, Singapore & Indore. Why 3 cities instead on 1- Well because they are 3 very different cities in terms of audiences and we also have rockstar team-members placed in each region who will be running the show.

- We wanted to try one developed market, one developing market and one tier 2 market to see where we get best engagement among users for the above mentioned services.

Looking for You :

- You'll be responsible to train, mentor and lead a team, constantly innovate, contribute to the noise at the boardroom during brainstorming sessions, establish processes and systems & ensure the deliverable takes place on-time, on-budget and is simply the best!

- The role will also be very hands-on, so we are looking for people willing to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty.

- If you have the hunger to make it big, drive to create a huge impact, the courage to face uncertainty, the willingness to take the risk and would like to work directly with the CEO, then get in touch with us. But instead of just a CV, tell us a problem you are looking to solve in health & wellness space and how YOU would go about solving it.
