American Revolution Historian
2 months ago
My mission is to combine the best research and literature on the Revolution with the fun of exploring a new city to give visitors to Boston a high quality and one of a kind cultural experience. The final product is a comprehensive political, philosophical, religious, psychological, and sociological exploration of America's founding delivered in a very energetic, light-hearted, and humorous narrative.
The job is very demanding, requiring physical dexterity, mental agility, a deep understanding of the history, and an outgoing personality. That being said the hardest part of the work has already been done and once you get it all down giving the tour becomes that much more fun and fulfilling to share.
I'm looking for somebody hard working, intelligent, friendly, and above all passionate.
The Compensation:Pay will be a combination of hourly wages, tips, and performance incentives.
- $45 / hour.
- Tours can range from 3 - 4.0 hours.
- Tips (on average) between $100 - $150 per tour.
- Year-end profit sharing based on work ethic, customer feedback, and contributions to the bottom-line.
The Benefits:
- Work with great people. My vision is to create a small team of passionate people that self-regulate and collaborate.
- Meaningful work. This is the formative history of the most influential country on the planet and extraordinarily relevant. Making it accessible and engaging while doing it justice is endlessly challenging and fulfilling.
- Flexible schedule. It will be important to be available in the peak / summer season and (at least) one day on the weekend. Outside of that we can work on which days and times work best for your schedule.
- Part time work. Enjoy half days. Ideal for students or people with other gigs.
- Seasonal work. Enjoy a long off season every winter. Go travel.
- Active work. You're outdoors in a beautiful city every day.
- Entrepreneurial atmosphere. The immediate need is to take advantage of the current opportunity in the marketplace but there is going to be ground floor opportunities to research and develop additional tours, products, and markets and help take the business to the next level.
Educational Background / Academic Expectations:
- The most important qualifications are a passion for the history and a personality the guests respond positively to. The ideal candidate will already have a background in the American Revolution and the associated scholarship, or at the least be willing to familiarize themselves with the pertinent source material.
Physical Requirements:You have to have a strong voice and the ability to project over an often-noisy background. The tour pace is leisurely, but you have to be physically fit enough to carry a bag of visual aids and maintain a high level of energy throughout.
Personality Requirements:Anybody with a highly partisan axe to grind (left or right, then or now) or who could not be a consistent, friendly, and enthusiastic host to visitors of all persuasions from all countries in all weather conditions would not work out.
How To Apply
If you are interested send me YOUR story: mike@therevolutionarystorytour.com
Include a resume with a cover photo. I am willing to consider anyone from working professionals looking for a side hustle or graduate students looking for good money, but I am not looking to fill a seat and preference will be given to someone who sees in this an opportunity for a long-term partnership and collaboration.
