A Surge of Excitement and Motivation

October 4, 2026

HOTWORX congratulates franchisees, Jessie and Walter Pellerin, who were awarded 3 franchise licenses - 2 in the San Antonio market and 1 in the San Angelo market. They recently opened their San Antonio, TX (Callaghan Plaza) studio!

What originally motivated you to consider a business opportunity?
We are business owners in the Oil & Gas industry with a company offering services to support activities to drilling rigs. We share about 68 years in sales, customer service, and management. What originally motivated us to consider a new business was that we both absolutely loved the HOTWORX workouts. It's a unique concept with the health benefits and short amount of time it takes to work out.

What led you to explore franchising rather than an independent business?
We have found that owning our own business, which we've had much success with, comes with potential gains and losses. While it has given us our own independence and the feeling of fulfillment, it also comes with significant risks and huge responsibilities. Whereas with franchising, business ownership is more structured. There's a system in place, proven track record, customer base, and the branding and recognition is there. Franchising offers fewer risks and failures due to the support system in place.

‍What was your initial impression of your first HOTWORX session?
We both thought the workout was challenging, but loved it!

‍How was your experience going through the HOTWORX Discovery Process?
Due to our day-to-day activities, we occasionally felt that we didn't have much time to go over all the Discovery Process modules and literature prior to our set appointments, but overall, our Franchise Recruiter, Kayla, was very informative and detailed in her deliverance.

‍How would you describe your Orientation Day and meeting the HOTWORX Executive Team?
Inspired! We felt a surge of excitement and motivation by meeting the Executive Team. We were impressed with the organization and their commitment to each other in building a successful franchise.

‍What advice would you give to other candidates considering the opportunity to franchise with HOTWORX?
They have a proven record and a plethora of resources in building successful franchises.

‍What are the top 3 reasons you chose to franchise with HOTWORX?
1. Having an additional source of income
2. Retirement investment
3. Health benefits

‍What excites you the most in offering HOTWORX to your community?
We're most excited about sharing the health benefits with people that don't know about infrared workouts.

‍What goals do you plan to accomplish in your first year as a HOTWORX franchisee?
In our first year as franchisees, we want to be the fastest to sign up 1000 members.

‍How will HOTWORX help you achieve your personal and professional goals?
Professionally, HOTWORX will help us stay on trend with new technology and build successful business relationships. Personally, it will help us to stay strong, active, and to age gracefully.

Congratulations, Jessie & Walter, and welcome to the HOTWORX team!
