I'm looking for a special person for an amazing gig!

Here's the scoop.... I'm a VP Sales for a billion dollar
corporation that bought out my company, and I'm making a
gigantic sales push for the last year of my "earn-out".

I'm going "all-in" in my work life for the next year!

I'm looking for an ambitious, hard-working and talented
person to work as my personal assistant for the next year or so.

START WITH THE HOUSEKEEPING

You'll start out by organizing and cleaning
my messy mansion in the Hollywood Hills ...
... then move up to organizing my files,
helping me with emails, phone calls,
keeping my calender up-to-date,
and generally coordinating my life.

HELP WITH THE ERRANDS

I also need help buying groceries,
running errands like dry-cleaning,
coordinating the pool-guy and landscapers,

ASSIST WITH MY PHONE, FILES, & APPOINTMENTS

But ... as things heat up through the summer
and into the fall, your job will become more
and more like an Executive Assistant/Life Assistant
to me in my role as Vice President of Sales and Marketing,
who's out drumming up business all day long...
.... but still helping with the house.


****FULL DISCLOSURE ABOUT ME ***********

I am hard-charging and goal focused,
which might make me a tad cranky at times,
especially when I run short on sleep.

I'm also funny, generous and loyal to a fault.

But make no mistake,
this is a challenging gig,
with lots of room for problems
and lots of room for fun, excitement, and personal growth.

*******************
I'm going to interview folks this week
and make a decision right away.

You can start at $16/hour
for the initial housecleaning/organizing
and move quickly, in 2 weeks, to $20/hour.

We'll start at 2 or 3 days a week to see how it goes.

When and if things work well between us,
(and you do a GREAT job)
you can go to $25/hour in September
and $30/hour in January.

Stay with me until Jan 2008
and I'll guarantee you in writing,
a nice five-figure bonus.

That's when I make my earn-out
and you can share in my success,
to the extent that you have helped it happen.

PS... I've found great people thru Craigslist before
so I know you are out there. Move fast if you really
want this gig!

I think you should be young, energetic,
and really looking an opportunity
to breakthrough into a better life
by your own sweat, smarts, and skills.

Please send resume, and an email
telling me why you'd be great at this gig.

I'll decide quickly,
and I'll also reply to everyone who
replies, whether you get the job or not.
