Should I Become A Beachbody Coach? Common FAQ’s Answered

Should I Become A Beachbody Coach?You’ve sat down and thought to yourself and wondered if you should become a Beachbody Coach.   Maybe you’ve even watched a short video on it.  I’ve been a Beachbody coach for a a while now which has allowed me to easily identify the most common or frequently asked questions (FAQ).  Sometimes the reasons are legit.  Everyone’s goals and circumstances are different.   But many times the reasons are simply fear of the unknown.  It ends up coming down to how much you want change in your life and how much you want to help others.  Not just help others like it sounds cool but actually HELP others and put them first.  This means listening to them and working with them so they can meet THEIR goals!

If you are reading this and considering of becoming a Beachbody coach, you most likely are weighing the options and probably have asked yourself at least one or two of the below questions.

FAQ’s - Should I Become A Beachbody Coach?

1.) Q: I am NOT a salesperson

A:   “I don’t want to sound salesy” or “I don’t want to ask all of my friends to buy something from me” is something I hear often.    The truth is when you are truly helping someone  by putting their best interest on the table, you are doing them a favor.  How can that be construed as “salesy”?  I come from an IT background.  We are known to be disgruntled, quiet and even eccentric.  None of them being classified as a salesman.  But yet I am successful.

Some of the most successful Beachbody coaches are shy and keep to themselves.  They learned how to talk with people and help them by sharing their story and the success of others.   Many don’t even go out to network with prospective coaches and customers and build their business 100% via the internet and social media.   Coaches come from all types of backgrounds.  It’s all about wanting to help others.

2.) Q: It’s too expensive to Become a Beachbody Coach

A: If you are struggling financially, then you NEED this.  Ask yourself what is changing for you and how it will be different in a year.  In today’s economy, many are losing jobs and getting passed up for raises while Beachbody continues to move up by 300% and climbing.

Unless you are living under a rock, you know that we have an obesity crisis in America.   Become a Beachbody coach and you will find no shortage of people that need our help to get healthy, fit and the ability to generate income.  Our team has a proven system for you to make back your small investment in the first 30 days and on to generating income the 2nd month. Many do it faster.

Become a Beachbody Coach Sharing Cycle3.) Q: I don’t have the time

Ask yourself these questions:
How much time do you spend in your car?  How much time do you spend watching TV?  How much time do you kill just because you don’t feel energetic?  We all have the same amount of time.  We are all busy.  If you really want to make a difference in your life, you will find the time.  You can start by putting in 30 – 60 minutes a day.  The beauty of it is you can work it in throughout your day.  Standing in line and driving through traffic are no longer frustrating but an opportunity to reach out to someone.

Are you willing to work hard for a couple years to be able to spend the rest of your life with more freedom and time?  I won’t lie, it takes effort to build a business.  That also holds true for any business you start.   Contrary to what it may seem sometimes, successful businesses are NOT built overnight.  Success happens with consistent goal oriented activities.  The same holds true when you become a Beachbody coach.

4.) Q: I don’t know many people

A:  Let me introduce you to something called the internet.   We are not living in a world bound by location anymore.  We have Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, Instagram just to name a few social media sites.  It allows us to reach anyone in the world without leaving our home.  We can use our smart phones at any time, anywhere.   The possibilities are endless.  The amount of users on Twitter alone is into the millions if not more.  Become a Beachbody coach and utilize these tools and you will be able to choose your own success.

5.)  Q: I am not in the best shapeBecome a Beachbody Coach  Fitness and Fruit

A:  The truth is everyone is constantly working on a goal.  Those that are in really great shape always have a new challenge in front of them. Even if they have 5% body fat, they may struggle with other things that you may not. You’d be surprised on what people have going on in their life. Everyone has some stuff they are fighting or looking for a solution. Invite those friends to take the journey with you. Accountability is the name of the game. The key is to start. If you wait for the perfect time, it won’t come.

Opportunities are never lost; someone will take the one you miss.  ~Author Unknown

People relate MORE to those that they see are vulnerable and someone that also is working through their own struggles.

6.) Q: It’s a pyramid scheme

A: Pyramid schemes are illegal.   Beachbody has a A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Wikipedia’s definition:  pyramid scheme is a “non-sustainable business model that involves promising participants payment or services, primarily for enrolling other people into the scheme, rather than supplying any real investment or sale of products or services to the public”.

None of this applies to Beachbody.  Become a Beachbody coach and represent real top notch products such as P90X, INSANITY, Shakeology, Les Mills Combat, Body Beast and many more more products that are offered by Beachbody and are proven to help people take back their fitness and health.

In many positions in corporate America, you have to work your way “up the ladder”.   When you become a Beachbody coach, you determine your own success.  You are your own boss, set your own hours, work from anywhere and can make more income than anyone in your upline.  The possibilities are endless.

Many still fear a business of network marketing as a scheme or one that is built on nothing and everyone is out to steal their money.  Yes, in business you want to do your due diligence and check into each opportunity before jumping in.  The business model is brilliant and built upon residual income.   Donald Trump, Warren Buffet and Robert Kiyosaki are all big proponents of the network marketing business model.  Kiyosaki is the author of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” among numerous other best selling books. Gone are the days where you were approached by some slimy guy outside of Target wondering if you would like to join him at a meeting.  Social Media and being a normal person having normal conversations have completely changed the game.

7.) “I live in a remote area.  No one here can spend a dime on their health”

A: See number 4 above.

Beachbody Summit 2012 – My review

Beachbody Summit 2012 – Starting of with P90X Certification

I’m back recently from a six day adventure in Las Vegas.  Part of the trip was to get P90X certified and the other half was for the annual Beachbody Summit.

The P90X class was a large amount of data packed into two days.    We covered everything from bones and muscles to cueing form and nutrition.   Lots to soak into a short amount of time.   Since Tony was in town for the Summit, we were able get two workouts with him and a motivational speech in typical humerous Tony style.    To relieve a little tension, it was off to the old downtown area of Las Vegas and Fairmont street.   It was quite a side show.  Some guy in a diaper was yelling something to me.  I am not sure but had a good idea on what type of humor he was trying to provide.  Only in Vegas.   To mix it up even more, we went ziplining.  It wasn’t overly crazy but a nice little rush of adrenelin.  After some cramming and practicing for the exam, I passed and am now officially P90X certified!   This was a huge step for me in becoming a group fitness trainer.   It signified an ever bigger leap for me from where I started in October of 2009.

P90X Certification to the Beachbody Summit

From there it was a transition from the P90X training to the start of the Beachbody Summit.  But before that started, a few of us went to a Vegas show.  We decided on Cirque du Soleil and Mystere.  It was very interesting to watch some very almost impossible moves and twists in the air.  Amazing.   It was my first Cirque du Soleil show.   It was one of their first shows ever held.   Lots of examples of pure strength and incredible flexibility.  It made the P90X moves looks simple.  I’ve heard of great things about KÀ as well.  I’ll have to make it to that one next time.  I don’t think you can go wrong with either.

Beachbody Summit 2012 – Team Training

Thursday came and it was time for pre Summit team training.  We had presentations from Chalene Johnson, Shaun T, Tony Horton, Brett Hoebel and Beachbody CEO Carl Daikeler.   They had such great tips and inspirational stories.  Brett has a humbling story of success and failures and seems very down to earth.   Something that isn’t that common as one reaches “success”.  I also had a chance to tell my story on how Beachbody changed my mindset towards fitness and health.    I really loved the opportunity to speak in front of the group and share my story.  It wasn’t a big deal but it’s something I would not have done a few years ago.

Beachbody Summit 2012 – New products, parties and workouts

Summit opened Friday with a bang with some great new product announcements.   From the new Body Beast to Vegan Chocolate Shakeology, Les Mils Combat (coming Fall of 2012) and Derm Exclusive.   I am especially excited for the vegan Shakeology and Derm Exclusive products.   I won’t be using the Derm products but am eager to see how it works for women.   I know there are many women that would love a product like this that has such a high level of “clean” ingredients in it.    I bought one and my wife is going to try it out.  I will write up a review once she gets a feeling for how it works for her.

I also had the honor of being recognized for my Star Diamond coach rank status on stage in front of the 5,000 other Beachbody coaches.   I also was recognized for being a Success Club All Star.   An accomplishment that simply means reaching Success Club for 12 months in a row and a indication of Beachbody coaching success.  I was also shocked when I had a few video blurbs feature me on the big screen.  The focus was on COMMIT.  They also featured a story on my sister Rhonda’s success. A significant moment for both of us.

Beachbody Summit Diamond Party at Wet Republic

Beachbody Summit Diamond Party at Wet Republic

Throw in some great training sessions, killer workouts, award ceremonies, interacting with other successful and goal oriented coaches  and fun parties and you have yourself a Beachbody Summit for 2012.    I even got out of my comfort zone and wore rolled up white linen pants to the Diamond party at the Wet Republic.  One of the workouts was a super workout that included all of the trainers and about 5,000 coaches outside in the Vegas heat.   We even had a chance to listen to Seth Godin, author of best selling books Tribes, Linchpin and others.   I could have listened to him for hours.  He painted a clear picture on what type of world we are living in and how it has marketing has changed over the years, especially since the introduction of the internet.

It was a jam packed six days.   I was running on adrenaline for most of it and then crashed Sunday.   I am always impressed at the attention to detail that Beachbody shows when hosting a party.  From the imprinted cocktail napkins to the Beachbody logo in the pool at the parties.  It’s time to recoup and get back in the swing of things.  I finished my Beachbody Ultimate Reset experience right before heading to Las Vegas and now going to kick off my new workout program Les Mils Pump.  It will be a hybrid schedule to work in my runs as I prepare for my first half marathon.  I will post the schedule here as soon as I finalize it.  See you in Vegas in 2013 for next year’s Beachbody Summit!

My first Beachbody Coach Summit

I am just recently back from Los Angeles and the Beachbody Coach Summit conference. What an experience that was!

This trip gave me a chance not only to meet the celebrity trainers but also so many people that I have met through social media but have never met in person. I met my sister Rhonda there and also gave us an opportunity to spend some time together.

One of my the first adventures was the a 3 hour tour to the Beachbody headquarters in Santa Monica. The office building has numerous windows and natural light and just an overall feeling of positivity. A few interesting stats that I found out.

Greg and Tony Horton

Meeting Tony Horton for the first time

A potential candidate needs to pass 15 interviews before they are hired by Beachbody.   That really showed me that they care about having the best work there.   I am sure that is a huge contributing factor in receiving the A+ rating from the BBB.  Another was the explosive growth, going from 365ish employees at the beginning of the year to 517 at the time of my visit.   This in a time where many companies are laying off employees and struggling to stay afloat. I was also blown away at the display wall that presented all 70 super food ingredients that are in Shakeology.   I was even more impressed after listening to Isabelle Daikeler and Darin Olien, co-creators of Shakeology, and Dr. Bill Wheeler in a break-out session.   I would later find out the announcement of the new Shakeology flavor; TROPICAL!

From there it was on to the invitation only Success Club celebration.   This is where I was able to get my first picture with Tony Horton.   He is the man behind P90X and the program that really helped me changed my mindset towards fitness and health.   I also got my picture with Shaun T from Asylum and INSANITY.   It was entertaining seeing my sister Rhonda light up when she was able to meet him.   INSANITY was her first Beachbody program like P90X was mine.

The next morning it was time for early workouts.   I chose to try out Body Gospel with trainer Donna Richardson.   It was my first time trying it out. I was underestimating it. I was soaked with sweat by the end of it and impressed by the connection of faith and health that she encouraged.   Shakeology breakfast and then on to breakout sessions.

Before we had much time to catch our breath it was time for the “main event” and a group workout with Tony Horton. I got in line early so I could get up front. He had us doing many moves from the new P90X2 that is coming out this Fall. I was plenty sore and had a few rug burns for souvenirs.   It was a surreal experience.

A very quick shower and BAM it was over to the Diamond reception at the LA Conga Room at LA Live.   There was a live band and a chance for another photo opp with Tony and Shaun T.   Then I let my hair down and had a great time!

Just when I thought the energy high couldn’t get any higher, it was up early at 6:00 AM for an outdoor group workout with all of the celebrity trainers and 2,500 coaches from across the country.   The LA news was there to interview CEO Carl Daikeler and a few of the coaches.   It was crazy and crowded. Let’s just say it was a little stinky by the time we are done with the workouts.

More breakout sessions, more socializing and collaboration with other coaches then it was time for the Awards Ceremony and dinner.   I met quite a few others with very inspiring weight loss stories.   The last day it was a few more sessions and Carl closed it out with a very passionate message on ending the trend of obesity.   He listed off some stats that really were shocking.

Overall, it was such a worthwhile experience.   The main take away for me was how truly passionate and real Carl was and what Beachbody truly presents.   I’m very excited for P90X2, Tropical Shakeology and helping others get healthy and fit!  I am already registered the next Coach Summit in Las Vegas in June of 2012!
