“I will email you my resume and Initial Commitments using Contact Us. I am starting my training now and will continue my training in the near future. Sending my Initial Commitments entitles me to move from Volunteer to paid Trainee status at 50% of full Resource Developer status. To move to full Resource Developer status I will complete certain training modules, pass certain tests, complete a project and ask for an Independent Contractor Agreement.”

Introduction
To become a Resource Developer Trainee for Chimorel, you will make commitments in the following areas:
- Your volunteer training.
- Your personal and Chimorel goals.
- Your service project.
- Your training focus.
- Your time and your tasks.
You will make a simple statement like:
“I want to enter Chimorel’s Resource Developer training (training) to support others (service). I will volunteer a minimum of five hours each week (time) learning about Chimorel and supporting others until I achieve certain objectives.”
You will set at least one personal goal and one Chimorel Goal / Project
You will establish your training focus and may indicate other areas of interest.
You will determine a specific time (days and times) each week to train and do tasks.
You should determine specific tasks and communicate with your manager each week.
You can use the form below or create your own document which provides the same information and makes commitments regarding your volunteer training, goals, focus, time and tasks.
If you use the form, replace each item in blue with your information. Make additional changes as appropriate. Read the Goal, Focus, Time or Tasks sections below for suggestions as needed. If you don’t have an email, click the email link above to learn how to create one.
Commitment Form
Once you and your manager agree on your commitments, you move from volunteer status to 50% commission status, thus you could actually be paid during your “volunteer” time if you are sufficiently organized and you begin to meaningfully support the people you enroll.
Again, you can create your own document or just use the form below. Save the document to your Chimorel folder. Complete all the required items. Email it to us with your resume using Contact Us.
Suggestions
Personal Goal Suggestions
At the beginning your personal goal should probably be based on income or service, something like:
- I want to earn an additional $200/mo working from my home. (income)
- My personal goal is to increase my income $50/wk within two months. (income)
- I want to raise $10,000 for my church’s building fund. (service)
Chimorel Goal Suggestions
Your Chimorel goal can be anything to support Chimorel or a person / organization affiliated with Chimorel. If your Chimorel goal generates a minimum of $500 for Chimorel, it can also be your Service Project.
- I want to make my community a better place to live. Starting this month I will volunteer eight hours per month and give $50/mo to achieve this goal.
- I will help Chimorel find one new Board member in the next two months.
- I will help two people who are homeless find jobs and get a place to live in the next six months.
- I will organize one large Introductory Meeting every other month for the next two years with the intention of developing 10 new Resource Developers, 200 new clients and $25,000 for Chimorel at every introductory meeting.
- I will spend ten hours each month helping with administrative tasks for Chimorel.
- I will take ten people each week on a tour of Chimorel’s website with the intention of getting at least two to become members or enter a Chimorel program.
- I will bring ten people to the Sanctuary each month to enable them to find peace, inspiration and empowerment. They will make decisions to enhance their lives and improve the world.
- I will develop a way to raise $4000 to provide a $2000 Guaranteed Scholarship for ___.
- If your focus is, for example, to help your church or another nonprofit, your personal/service goal and Chimorel goal could be the same.
Focus Suggestions
Your focus will flow from Chimorel’s Training Tracks. Click this link to review these training tracks. Right now your focus should be to support people as they set goals, develop action plans and to follow up with clients. This essentially means marketing and implementing memberships and programs and is the quickest way to start earning something.
Many of the other program tracks will take time to develop, require specific skills or focus on service to others, which may slow your ability to make money. If it takes a long time to see results from your efforts, you can get discouraged. At the same time if you have a strong interest in other areas, indicate those areas of interest and allocate some time to learn about and implement them.
Thus, you will probably set a primary focus to Set Goals. You might indicate another area you want to work on, but you will probably discuss this with your manager before making a decision.
Service Project Suggestions
Your Service Project consists of doing something that generates a minimum of $500 for a Chimorel Special Project, typically at this point, to support developing the Sanctuary.
You will want to confirm your Service Project with your Manager.
Time Suggestions
Below are examples of specific time statements:
- On Monday from 9am to 11am and Thursday from 1pm to 4pm ….
- Every Wednesday from 12 to 5pm …
- From 5-6 pm every weekday …
When you make your time commitment specific, you make it real. Obviously you can change the actual times, but when you change your time, set new times, make the time real and keep your manager informed.
Task Suggestions
Below are examples of specific task statements:
- Each week I will determine ten specific tasks and discuss my progress with my manager.
- My first task will be to read, study and answer questions in Chimorel’s Training Program.
- Then I will talk to my pastor about setting up Introductory Meetings at our church.
- Then …
Your tasks will continue to change. At the beginning of each week you may want to determine the tasks for the following week and write them down. Then as you work on tasks, run into problems, set new goals, etc. you will periodically (once each week at first, less often later) discuss them with your Manager.
Your tasks will deal with your goals and your focus. You could combine your time and task statements as shown on the Commitment Form below.
A part-time Resource Developer could earn $15,000+/yr. A full-time Resource Developer could earn $35,000+/yr and $50,000+ as a Manager plus benefits. As an Independent Contractor you will work from your home.
You earn a percent of the funds you raise. You earn for each member and program you enroll. You earn for each computer donation and sale. You earn ongoing fees for following up and for assisting Planners at Goal Setting sessions. You earn for each Home Builder and College Bound Program. Once trained, you earn for setting up Consulting Assignments and Asset Management Programs. You can apply your earnings to a Special Project and get others to assist you to fund your Special Project.
Here’s an interesting idea. As a volunteer or a client you might pay $250 to become an Action Planner. You set one goal and develop an action plan. Now here is an alternative. Raise $500 and apply for a one time grant through our Client Assistance Committee. You become an Action Planner even before becoming a Resource Developer by qualifying for the grant. Now you have a story to tell prospective clients. You can create a Special Project and you have fulfilled your project requirement.
As a Resource Developer it is your job to develop the resources necessary to fund and manage a wide variety of programs. A quick review of our Ten Training Tracks will give you some insight. Once you actually begin training, the opportunities will seem incredible. Be aware, however, that developing resources means that many things will need to be developed as you go. That is what being a Resource Developer is all about.
I Am Not Certain ???

Continuing to Learn More About Resource Developers
At the beginning Resource Developers typically focus on supporting people as they Set Goals, develop Action Plans and Follow Up. An easy way to start is to invite people to buy stuff and use the Scrip program. You might invite several friends over and show them the possibilities on your computer. Soon you will be organizing Introductory Meetings then Change Your Life Meetings, developing prospect databases and doing prospect research. You may be involved in telemarketing, door-to-door canvassing, mass emailing and Special Event planning.
Other Resource Development tasks could involve recycling research, soliciting donations of computers, rebuilding computers, remodeling and construction, car repairs, assisting with training programs and finding or developing sites for recycling centers.
You could do patent research, engineering drawings, greenhouse and vertical hydroponic farming, verma-composting and more. If you have skills in working with and training people, you might become involved in helping Coordinators develop programs to work with the homeless, welfare recipients, the juvenile court, parolees, school systems and job placement efforts.
At this point it should be obvious that the scope of a Resource Developer’s job can be quite broad. One caveat, as you begin to develop resources for more than one part of Chimorel, you must strengthen your organizational skills. Trying to do too much simultaneously can dissipate your focus, weaken your effectiveness and reduce your earning potential. Warren speaks from genuine experience.
A second caveat, although the things you are learning about may sound like Chimorel is a vast organization, it is still at the
beginning of its development phase. We have worked with thousands of clients, seminar participants and students, but much of it has been in conjunction with other more established organizations. A lot of the original support we provided was for free or in exchange for other things or services. There is still a lot of work to do to make all the things you will read about real.
A paid Resource Developer starts as a part-time Independent Contractor. The IRS has guidelines that define an Independent Contractor. When you move from a Volunteer to becoming an Independent Contractor, you will review these guidelines to be sure you understand your role. In large part, you control how much you earn and how you will spend your time. Your earnings will be based on your accomplishments, not on how much time you spend.
Although you won’t be paid on an hourly basis, you should anticipate the equivalent of $7-20+/hr depending on your skills, organizational ability and actual accomplishments. With a 10-15 hour/wk commitment on your part, it is reasonable to earn $70 to $300/wk; however, you need to accomplish your goals to actually be paid. Typically, you would be paid once each month, but actual compensation arrangements can be flexible.
If you are on welfare, worker’s compensation, social security disability or some other program which provides the basis of your support OR if you are not very confident in your skill level, you may want to initiate a Chimorel Training Program and remain a Volunteer for a short time. Ask for more details, if you are interested. As you develop other Resource Developers, new clients and the right skills, you can become a Manager, a Planner and a Coordinator.
