Any Fly Shop Owners out there????

[Joel Thompson]

I need some help writing a help wanted ad. I have never had to do anything like this and would love any input from you all on what to put in the ad. The fly shop is in our lodge here at the ranch. It will cater to a very high end members only clientel and will be a seasonal postion. The person accepting the position must have a good knowlege of all the goodies in a fly shop and be an experienced fly fisherman. The person would also need to be able to take clients on hikes, run shuttles, and be organized in taking appointments for all the fun stuff we do in the outdoors. Pay would depend on the person experience in all of these fields.

Ok, how do I put that into words to get the best people possible. Keep in mind the town of Deer Lodge has a very small population of about 3500 people and not a lot of qualified people to drawn from so we are going to be relying on people from Helena, Butte, and Missoula.

Any input you guys have would be greatly appreciated!

What about:

“Wanted: Fly shop assistant manager.

Joel,

You might want to indicate if the job is “seasonal” as opposed to “year round”. This would probably make a difference in the type person you would attract. Might be a good position for a retiree in relatively good health.

Loghova,

I am sure if I posted that at the “U” in Missoula I would get lots of response. Just not sure if it would be the right type of person or not. Kind of like Zachs version a little better. Thanks for the input though. It definitely put a smile on my face! 🙂
