Fitness Together, the worlds largest personal training organization, has named Scott Thompson, Area Director of New York, Master Franchiser of the Year. The announcement was made at Fitness Togethers annual meeting in November. The meeting took place in Cancun, Mexico and was attended by more than 300 Fitness Together owners.

Thompson won the award based on his sales performance. He sold 18 franchises in the state of New York during 2006, more than any other Area Director in the United States. Thompson began to develop the Fitness Together franchise in New York State in November 2005.

When I took this position a year ago, my goal was to open 15 franchises within the year. The Fitness Together business model is so successful, that I am confident that I will surpass  my goal  next year, Thompson said.

Scotts tenacity and business acumen have proven extremely beneficial in his role as Area Director of New York. I look forward to sharing more successes with him, Sikorski said.
